Fundamental Limits to Cellular Sensing [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
In recent years experiments have demonstrated that living cells can measure low chemical concentrations with high precision, and much progress has been made in understanding what sets the fundamental limit to the precision of chemical sensing. Chemical concentration measurements start with the binding of ligand molecules to receptor proteins, which is ...

Radiation‐Resistant Bacteria Deinococcus radiodurans‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles as Potential Radioprotectors

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Deinococcus radiodurans‐derived extracellular vesicles (R1‐EVs) provide radioprotection against total‐body irradiation‐induced acute radiation syndrome in mice. R1‐EVs mitigate oxidative damage by scavenging free radicals, promoting intestinal repair, enhancing hematopoietic function, and modulating immune responses. This study highlights the potential

Low-bone-mass phenotype of deficient mice for the cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Bone tissue is continuously remodeled by bone cells and maintenance of its mass relies on the balance between the processes of resorption and formation. We have reported the expression of numerous scavenger receptors, namely scavenger receptor (SR) class

Ovarian Function Restoration with Biomimetic Scaffold Incorporating Angiogenic Molecules and Antioxidant in Chemotherapy‐Induced Perimenopausal Model

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study developed a biomimetic scaffold incorporating PDRN and melatonin to restore ovarian function in chemotherapy‐induced premature ovarian insufficiency, enhancing cell survival, folliculogenesis, and hormone normalization, while improving fertility rates and offspring in a mouse model, offering a promising strategy for ovarian function ...

Scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) mediates free cholesterol flux independently of HDL tethering to the cell surface

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1999
In addition to its effect on high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesteryl ester (CE) uptake, scavenger receptor BI (SR-BI) was recently reported to stimulate free cholesterol (FC) flux from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells stably expressing mouse SR-BI, a

Effect of combined siRNA of HCV E2 gene and HCV receptors against HCV

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2011
Background/Aim Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major threat as almost 3% of the world's population (350 million individual) and 10% of the Pakistani population is chronically infected with this virus. RNA interference (RNAi), a sequence-specific degradation

Polymorphisms in enterovirus 71 receptors associated with susceptibility and clinical severity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the association of enterovirus 71 (EV71) susceptibility and clinical severity with polymorphisms in EV71 receptors, including human scavenger receptor class B member 2 (SCARB2), P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1), and annexin

Structure and dynamics of dynorphin peptide and its receptor [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Dynorphin is a neuropeptide involved in pain, addiction and mood regulation. It exerts its activity by binding to the kappa opioid receptor (KOP) which belongs to the large family of G-protein coupled receptors. The dynorphin peptide was discovered in 1975, while its receptor was cloned in 1993.

Hollow‐Structured Nanorobot with Excellent Magnetic Propulsion for Catalytic Pollutant Degradation, Anti‐Bacterial and Biofilm Removal

open access: yesAdvanced 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 ...

Influence of class B scavenger receptors on cholesterol flux across the brush border membrane and intestinal absorption

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
To learn more about how the step of cholesterol uptake into the brush border membrane (BBM) of enterocytes influences overall cholesterol absorption, we measured cholesterol absorption 4 and 24 h after administration of an intragastric bolus of ...
