Schizophrenia is a TH2 dominant autoimmune disease possibly against acetylcholine receptors of CNS [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a very common psychiatric disorder. However, its etiology and pathogenesis is still unknown. Current theory saying that neurotransmitter imbalance such as serotonin or dopamine only provides limited effectiveness in schizophrenia ...

Characterization of an emergent clone of enteroinvasive Escherichia coli circulating in Europe [PDF]
Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC) cause intestinal illness indistinguishable from that caused by Shigella, mainly in developing countries. Recently an upsurge of cases of EIEC infections has been observed in Europe, with two large outbreaks ...

KYNA regulates the tumor immune microenvironment in glioblastoma. KYNA reprograms the balance between T cell exhaustion and activation to suppress glioblastoma progression through inhibiting exhaustion‐associated markers (such as PD‐1, LAG3, and TOX) and enhancing immune activation and cytotoxicity markers including granzymes GZMA and GZMB.

Activity of nAChRs containing α9 subunits modulates synapse stabilization via bidirectional signaling programs [PDF]
Although the synaptogenic program for cholinergic synapses of the neuromuscular junction is well known, little is known of the identity or dynamic expression patterns of proteins involved in non-neuromuscular nicotinic synapse development.

The E3 ubiquitin ligase RFWD3 binds the exonuclease TREX1 and protects it from TRIM24‐mediated ubiquitination and degradation, leading to the eradication of intracellular dsDNA, inhibition of the cGAS‐STING pathway, and immunosuppressive microenvironment of lung cancer.

Cholesterol modulates acetylcholine receptor diffusion by tuning confinement sojourns and nanocluster stability [PDF]
Translational motion of neurotransmitter receptors is key for determining receptor number at the synapse and hence, synaptic efficacy. We combine live-cell STORM superresolution microscopy of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) with single-particle ...
