Structure of the human secretory immunoglobulin M core [PDF]

open access: yesStructure, 2020
Abstract Immunoglobulins (Ig) A and M are the only human antibodies that form oligomers and undergo transcytosis to mucosal secretions via the polymeric Ig receptor (pIgR). When complexed with the J-chain (JC) and the secretory component (SC) of pIgR, secretory IgA and IgM (sIgA and sIgM) play critical roles in host-pathogen defense ...

Secretory structure diversity on Astronium leaf

open access: yesBotany, 2022
Astronium fraxinifolium Schott and Astronium graveolens Jacq. are included in the Anacardiaceae. The secretory structures of Anacardiaceae have been studied several times; however, there is a lack of knowledge related to these structures in Astronium, and there are inconsistencies in the taxonomy of the groups.

Leaf secretory structures in Ceiba (Malvaceae - Bombacoideae): ontogeny, anatomy and histochemistry [PDF]

open access: yesRodriguésia
The description of secretory structures in Malvaceae is controversial, and results in conflicting interpretations. Amid conflicting interpretations, therefore, the present study aims to describe the ontogeny diversity and histochemistry in Ceiba ...
