Natural killer cells as an initial defense against pathogens. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Natural killer (NK) cells serve as a crucial first line of defense against tumors and a diverse range of pathogens. Recognition of infection by NK cells is accomplished by the activation of receptors on the NK cell surface, which initiate NK cell ...

Polyphenol‐Based Biomaterials Against Cancer Radio/Chemotherapy‐Induced Intestinal Toxicity

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Radiotherapy/chemotherapy often causes intestinal toxicity, impairing cancer patients’ quality of life and treatment efficacy. Polyphenols protect against this injury via multiple mechanisms, but face oral use limitations. This review outlines their protective mechanisms and delivery challenges, highlighting recent oral delivery advances and future ...

MyD88 Deficiency Protects Mice From Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis by Influencing Both Dendritic Cells and T Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesImmunology
This study investigates the role of MyD88 in dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells during experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). We found that MyD88 is highly expressed in DCs and CD4+ T cells in people with multiple sclerosis, and its deficiency impairs DC maturation, reduces pro‐inflammatory cytokine production, weakens DC–T cell interactions ...

Vaccinia protein C16 blocks innate immune sensing of DNA by binding the Ku complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
VACV gene C16L encodes a 37-kDa protein that is highly conserved in orthopoxviruses and functions as an immunomodulator. Intranasal infection of mice with a virus lacking C16L (vΔC16) induced less weight loss, fewer signs of illness and increased ...

Cold Gas Plasma Induces Platelet Activation and Hemostasis in Native and Anticoagulated Human Blood

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Cold physical gas plasma induces platelet activation and hemostatic responses in native and anticoagulated human blood. Treatment efficacy depends on plasma parameters, including gas composition, distance, and exposure mode, which govern reactive species delivery and energy transfer.

Effect of Paclitaxel+Hirudin on the TLR4-MyD88 Signaling Pathway During Inflammatory Activation of Human Coronary Artery Smooth Muscle Cells and Mechanistic Analysis

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: Approximately 10%-20% of patients with acute cardiovascular disease who have received coronary intervention suffer restenosis and high inflammation.

SYK is activated by mutated MYD88 and drives pro-survival signaling in MYD88 driven B-cell lymphomas

open access: yesBlood Cancer Journal, 2020
Activating MYD88 mutations promote pro-survival signaling through BTK and HCK, both targets of ibrutinib. Despite high response rates, complete responses to ibrutinib are lacking, and other MYD88 triggered pro-survival pathways may contribute to primary ...

Dietary Baicalin Supplementation Can Enhance the Growth Performance of Weaned Piglets and Maintain the Intestinal Barrier Integrity

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This research innovatively illustrates baicalin’s multifaceted mechanisms in enhancing piglets’ intestinal health: modulating bile acid metabolism via probiotics, reinforcing tight junction proteins (ZO‐1/claudin), suppressing TLR4/NF‐κB‐mediated inflammation, whereas promoting growth and reducing diarrhea.
