Characterization and Potential Applications of Dog Natural Killer Cells in Cancer Immunotherapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Natural killer (NK) cells of the innate immune system are a key focus of research within the field of immuno-oncology based on their ability to recognize and eliminate malignant cells without prior sensitization or priming.

Sugar Free: Novel Immunotherapeutic Approaches Targeting Siglecs and Sialic Acids to Enhance Natural Killer Cell Cytotoxicity Against Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Natural Killer (NK) cells are cytotoxic lymphocytes that play a key role in the immune system, targeting and destroying invading pathogens and malignantly transformed cells.

Interactions of a neuronal cell line (PC12) with laminin, collagen IV, and fibronectin: identification of integrin-related glycoproteins involved in attachment and process outgrowth. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Neuronal responses to extracellular matrix (ECM) constituents are likely to play an important role in nervous system development and regeneration. We have studied the interactions of a neuron-like rat pheochromocytoma cell line, PC12, with ECM protein ...

Characterization of three vasopressin receptor 2 variants: an apparent polymorphism (V266A) and two loss-of-function mutations (R181C and M311V). [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is released from the posterior pituitary and controls water homeostasis. AVP binding to vasopressin V2 receptors (V2Rs) located on kidney collecting duct epithelial cells triggers activation of Gs proteins, leading to increased

A natural killer cell receptor specific for a major histocompatibility complex class I molecule. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Target cell expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules correlates with resistance to lysis by natural killer (NK) cells.

Natural killer cell response to chemotherapy-stressed cancer cells: Role in tumor immunosurveillance. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Natural killer (NK) cells are innate cytotoxic lymphoid cells that actively prevent neoplastic development, growth, and metastatic dissemination in a process called cancer immunosurveillance.

Endothelial Cell Inflammation and Barriers Are Regulated by the Rab26-Mediated Balance between β2-AR and TLR4 in Pulmonary Microvessel Endothelial Cells

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2019
Rab26 GTPase modulates the trafficking of cell surface receptors, such as G protein-coupled receptors including α2-adrenergic receptors in some cell types.

An integrated mathematical model of cellular cholesterol biosynthesis and lipoprotein metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cholesterol regulation is an important aspect of human health. In this work we bring together and extend two recent mathematical models describing cholesterol biosynthesis and lipoprotein endocytosis to create an integrated model of lipoprotein ...

Mobility of cell surface receptors: a re‐evaluation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1998
It has long been known from fluorescence recovery after photobleaching experiments that the mobility of most cell surface receptors is much smaller than expected for free diffusion of proteins in a fluid lipid bilayer. Single‐particle tracking experiments are currently revealing the complexity of the constraints to free diffusion.

Analyzing the Role of Receptor Internalization in the Regulation of Melanin-Concentrating Hormone Signaling

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2013
The regulation of appetite is complex, though our understanding of the process is improving. The potential role for the melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH) signaling pathway in the treatment of obesity is being explored by many.
