Polarization restricts hepatitis C virus entry into HepG2 hepatoma cells [PDF]
, 2009 The primary reservoir for hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication is believed to be hepatocytes, which are highly polarized with tight junctions (TJ) separating their basolateral and apical domains.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A hollow‐structured Fe3O4@AgAu@PDA‐ZnPc nanosphere has been developed, exhibiting controllable catalytic activity and “photothermal‐photodynamic‐Ag+” coupling antibacterial characteristics. When subjected to a rotating magnetic field, these performances are uniquely enhanced by magnetic propulsion, allowing the nanosphere to function as a magnetic ...

CD81 and claudin 1 coreceptor association: role in hepatitis C virus entry. [PDF]
, 2008 Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an enveloped positive-stranded RNA hepatotropic virus. HCV pseudoparticles infect liver-derived cells, supporting a model in which liver-specific molecules define HCV internalization.

Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I Mediates Cell Entry of Hepatitis C Virus
Journal of International Medical Research, 2008 This study assessed the functional role of human scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) as a putative hepatitis C virus (HCV) receptor using Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells transfected with human SR-BI (CHO–huSR-BI). The expression of SR-BI by primary Tupaia hepatocytes (PTHs), human hepatocarcinoma cell line (HepG2) cells, untransfected CHO ...

The role of cellular adhesion molecules in virus attachment and entry [PDF]
, 2015 As obligate intracellular parasites, viruses must traverse the host-cell plasma membrane to initiate infection. This presents a formidable barrier, which they have evolved diverse strategies to overcome.

Progress of Immune‐Inducible Biomaterials for Post‐Ablation Cancers
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The presence of residual tumors after ablative therapies poses a significant challenge, generally resulting in recurrence and metastases. This review offers a concise overview of immune‐inducible biomaterials from the perspective of the cancer‐immunity cycle, and how they enhance antitumor immunity through diverse mechanisms following ablative ...

High density lipoprotein metabolism in low density lipoprotein receptor-deficient mice1[S]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2014 The LDL receptor (LDLR) and scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) play physiological roles in LDL and HDL metabolism in vivo. In this study, we explored HDL metabolism in LDLR-deficient mice in comparison with WT littermates.
