Probing the structure of the cold dark matter halo with ancient mica
Mica can store (for >1 Gy) etchable tracks caused by atoms recoiling from WIMPs. Ancient mica is a directional detector despite the complex motions it makes with respect to the WIMP "wind".

Two novel human cytomegalovirus NK cell evasion functions target MICA for lysosomal degradation [PDF]
NKG2D plays a major role in controlling immune responses through the regulation of natural killer (NK) cells, αβ and γδ T-cell function. This activating receptor recognizes eight distinct ligands (the MHC Class I polypeptide-related sequences (MIC) A ...

Cellular expression, trafficking, and function of two isoforms of human ULBP5/RAET1G [PDF]
Background: The activating immunoreceptor NKG2D is expressed on Natural Killer (NK) cells and subsets of T cells. NKG2D contributes to anti-tumour and anti-viral immune responses in vitro and in vivo. The ligands for NKG2D in humans are diverse proteins

Mutation hot spots in MICA/MICB extracellular domains
MICA and MICB are non-classical MHC molecules that indicate cellular stress. They act as ligands for NKG2D receptors found on NK cells, thereby triggering a cytotoxic response against damaged, infected, or transformed cells.

La falta d’expressió de MICA en pacients amb càncer de bufeta significa un pitjor pronòstic [PDF]
Antecedents: el càncer de bufeta urinària i de pulmó es troben entre els deu tipus de càncer més comuns en ambdós sexes. El receptor NKG2D i un dels seus lligants, MICA, s’associen amb el tabaquisme i la susceptibilitat de patir malaltia pulmonar ...

A two‐step DNA metallization process is presented for the modular assembly of metal sulfide nanoparticles (NPs) on MoS2, with nanoscale control over their separation and ability to concomitantly assemble different kind of NPs. This allowed to tailor the photoinduced electrical response of phototransistors to different wavelengths, according to the ...
