An Open Receptor-Binding Cavity of Hemagglutinin-Esterase-Fusion Glycoprotein from Newly-Identified Influenza D Virus: Basis for Its Broad Cell Tropism. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Influenza viruses cause seasonal flu each year and pandemics or epidemic sporadically, posing a major threat to public health. Recently, a new influenza D virus (IDV) was isolated from pigs and cattle. Here, we reveal that the IDV utilizes 9-O-acetylated

ST6GAL1‐Mediated Sialylation Stabilizes PD‐L1 and Drives Immunosuppressive Tumor Microenvironment in Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ST6GAL1 plays a critical role in tumor progression and immune regulation in colorectal cancer (CRC). Its depletion significantly suppresses the malignant phenotype of CRC cells and enhances the efficacy of anti‐PD‐L1 therapy. High ST6GAL1 expression promotes an immune‐activated tumor microenvironment (TME), characterized by increased infiltration of ...

The role of cellular adhesion molecules in virus attachment and entry [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Identification of TPRA1 as a Novel Receptor and Predictive Biomarker for Oncolytic Virus M1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies transmembrane protein adipocyte‐associated 1 (TPRA1) as a novel receptor for oncolytic virus M1 (OVM). TPRA1's ectodomain binds OVM particles, while its intracellular domain facilitates virus internalization, promoting efficient viral entry.

Substrate-bound outward-open structure of a Na+-coupled sialic acid symporter reveals a new Na+ site [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Many pathogenic bacteria utilise sialic acids as an energy source or use them as an external coating to evade immune detection. As such, bacteria that colonise sialylated environments deploy specific transporters to mediate import of scavenged sialic ...

Sialic acid on avian erythrocytes

open access: yesComparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2019
Understanding variation in physiological traits across taxa is a central question in evolutionary biology that has wide-ranging implications in biomedicine, disease ecology, and environmental protection. Sialic acid (Sia), and in particular, 5-N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac), is chemically bound to galactose and the underlying glycan via α2-3 or α2-6 ...

DePerio: Deep Learning‐Based Oral Inflammatory Load Quantification for Periodontal Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
a) Inflammation and oral polymorphonuclear neutrophil (oPMN) Migration: Dental plaque accumulation leads to inflammation, prompting white blood cells (WBCs), particularly oPMNs, to migrate from blood vessels through the gingival epithelium into the oral cavity.
