ESCRT: A Cellular Nexus of Plant Immunity and Pathogen Counter‐Strategies
The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) plays multifaceted roles in plants' responses to pathogens, including regulation of the localization and fate of immune receptors and other related cellular processes. ABSTRACT The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery consists of multiprotein complexes conserved ...

Background: Canine leishmaniosis (CanL) is a zoonotic disease of variable severity. The typical immune response is driven by an exaggerated humoral immune response. Protective immunity is mediated by pro‐inflammatory cytokines that enhance macrophage leishmanicidal activity. Objective: To evaluate the cutaneous and the systemic immune responses as well

Identification and characterization of a protozoan uncoupling protein in Acanthamoeba castellanii.
An uncoupling protein (UCP) was identified in mitochondria from Candida parapsilosis (CpUCP), a non-fermentative parasitic yeast. CpUCP was immunodetected using polyclonal antibodies raised against plant UCP. Activity of CpUCP, investigated in mitochondria depleted of free fatty acids, was stimulated by linoleic acid (LA) and inhibited by GTP. Activity
