Regulatory Mechanism of Trap Formation in the Nematode-Trapping Fungi
Journal of Fungi, 2022 Nematode-trapping (NT) fungi play a significant role in the biological control of plant- parasitic nematodes. NT fungi, as a predator, can differentiate into specialized structures called “traps” to capture, kill, and consume nematodes at a nutrient ...

AoChk1 Is Required for Sporulation, Trap Formation, and Metabolic Process in Arthrobotrys oligospora [PDF]
Journal of FungiChk1, a highly conserved serine/threonine protein kinase, functions as a critical regulator of fungal cell cycle progression, mitotic fidelity, and DNA damage response. In this study, we characterized an orthologous Chk1 (AoChk1) in a ubiquitous nematode-

Equilibrium Thermodynamics, Formation, and Dissociation Kinetics of Trivalent Iron and Gallium Complexes of Triazacyclononane-Triphosphinate (TRAP) Chelators: Unraveling the Foundations of Highly Selective Ga-68 Labeling [PDF]
Frontiers in Chemistry, 2018 In order to rationalize the influence of FeIII contamination on labeling with the 68Ga eluted from 68Ge/68Ga-generator, a detailed investigation was carried out on the equilibrium properties, formation and dissociation kinetics of GaIII- and FeIII ...

Mast Cell Tryptase Potentiates Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation [PDF]
Journal of Innate Immunity, 2021 Previous research has indicated an intimate functional communication between mast cells (MCs) and neutrophils during inflammatory conditions, but the nature of such communication is not fully understood.

Histone Acetylation Promotes Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2019 Neutrophils undergo a unique form of cell death to generate neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). It is well established that citrullination of histones (e.g., CitH3) facilitates chromatin decondensation during NET formation (NETosis), particularly ...

The trapping and detection of single atoms using a spherical mirror
New Journal of Physics, 2012 We fabricate a miniature spherical mirror for tightly focusing an optical dipole trap for neutral atoms. The mirror formation process is modelled to predict the dimensions for particular fabrication parameters.

Triptolide inhibits neutrophil extracellular trap formation [PDF]
Annals of Translational Medicine, 2021 Triptolide (PG490), as a triterpene dicyclic oxide has been reported to increase the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) and induce apoptosis of RAW 264.7 cells in a dose-dependent manner. The activity of death NETs plays an important role in anti-bacterial processes in the human body.
