Generation and Function of Non-cell-bound CD73 in Inflammation

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Extracellular adenine nucleotides participate in cell-to-cell communication and modulate the immune response. The concerted action of ectonucleotidases CD39 and CD73 plays a major role in the local production of anti-inflammatory adenosine, but both ...

The Periodic Replacement of Adhesive Setae in Pad Lamellae of Climbing Lizards Is Driven by Patterns of Corneous Layer Growth

Journal of Developmental Biology, 2022
The adhesive digital pads in some gecko and anoline lizards are continuously utilized for movements on vertical surfaces that may determine wear and a decrease of adhesion efficiency.

The shed [PDF]

ARQ (Santiago), 2017
Resumen: Una cubierta exterior telescópica, capaz de cubrir una plaza pública y multiplicar los grados de flexibilidad de un centro para la invención artística, transforma a este proyecto en uno de los más llamativos de los últimos años. Lo que llama menos la atención, sin embargo, es la torre residencial en la que The Shed se respalda y que, en último

Are we on the right track: can our understanding of abscission in model systems promote or derail making improvements in less studied crops?

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016
As the world population grows and resources and climate conditions change, crop improvement continues to be one of the most important challenges for agriculturalists.

Shedding light on GPIbα shedding

Current Opinion in Hematology
Purpose of review Ectodomain shedding has been investigated since the late 1980s. The abundant and platelet specific GPIbα receptor is cleaved by ADAM17 resulting in the release of its ectodomain called glycocalicin. This review will address the role of glycocalicin as an end-stage marker of platelet turnover and storage lesion

Shedding of APP limits its synaptogenic activity and cell adhesion properties

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2014
The Amyloid precursor protein (APP) plays a central role in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and has essential synapse promoting functions. Synaptogenic activity as well as cell adhesion properties of APP presumably depend on trans-cellular dimerization via its ...

Salmonella Shedding in Slaughter Pigs and the Use of Esterified Formic Acid in the Drinking Water as a Potential Abattoir-Based Mitigation Measure

Animals, 2022
Pigs shedding Salmonella at slaughter are considered a source of carcass contamination and human infection. To assess this potential risk, the proportion of Salmonella shedders that arrive for slaughter was evaluated in a population of 1068 pigs from 24 ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative
