Role of Glycans on Key Cell Surface Receptors That Regulate Cell Proliferation and Cell Death
Cells, 2021 Cells undergo proliferation and apoptosis, migration and differentiation via a number of cell surface receptors, most of which are heavily glycosylated.

Characterisation of bovine leukocyte Ig-like receptors [PDF]
, 2012 Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are innate immune receptors involved in regulating both innate and adaptive immune functions. LILR show more interspecies conservation than the closely related Killer Ig-like receptors, and homologues have ...

Characterisation of CD8neg and CD8+ human natural killer cell subsets [PDF]
, 2012 NK cells are CD3neg CD56+ lymphocytes that constitute about 10-15% of peripheral blood lymphocytes. They have an innate ability to recognise and kill virus infected cells and tumour cells.

The role of dimerisation in the cellular trafficking of G-protein-coupled receptors [PDF]
, 2010 The concept that G-protein-coupled receptors can exist as homomeric and/or heteromeric complexes is now well established. Despite this, how dynamic such interactions are and if this may be modulated during receptor trafficking remain topics of debate ...

Cell surface immune receptors: the guardians of the plant’s extracellular spaces [PDF]
, 2019 Since the original ‘Zigzag model’, several iterations have been proposed to reconcile both the Pattern Triggered Immunity (PTI) and the Effector Triggered Immunity (ETI) branches of the plant immune system.

A generic cell surface ligand system for studying cell-cell recognition.
PLoS Biology, 2019 Dose-response experiments are a mainstay of receptor biology studies and can reveal valuable insights into receptor function. Such studies of receptors that bind cell surface ligands are currently limited by the difficulty in manipulating the surface ...

Differential segregation in a cell-cell contact interface: the dynamics of the immunological synapse [PDF]
, 2002 Receptor-ligand couples in the cell-cell contact interface between a T cell and an antigen-presenting cell form distinct geometric patterns and undergo spatial rearrangement within the contact interface.
