Staphylococcus aureus proteins Sbi and Efb recruit human plasmin to degrade complement C3 and C3b.
Upon host infection, the human pathogenic microbe Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) immediately faces innate immune reactions such as the activated complement system. Here, a novel innate immune evasion strategy of S. aureus is described.

Characterization of an Inhibitor of Neuronal Plasminogen Activator Released by Heart Cells [PDF]
A basic understanding of growth cone dynamics and developmental events involving growth cones requires an understanding of the function and regulation of molecules associated with and released by growth cones. Rat sympathetic neurons in culture release a

Melatonin and the Dental Pulp: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Background In general medicine, melatonin is known to enhance wound healing and promote stem cell differentiation. Its potential relevance in endodontics, however, remains underexplored. Objectives This scoping review aimed to systematically assess the available evidence on the effects of melatonin (a) on dental pulp tissue and (b) on human ...
