Min Yang,Nan Jiang,Qi-Wei Cao et al.
Min Yang et al.
Gastric cancer is the most common digestive malignant tumor worldwild. EDD1 was reported to be frequently amplified in several tumors and played an important role in the tumorigenesis process. However, the biological role and potential mech...
Myeloid conditional deletion and transgenic models reveal a threshold for the neutrophil survival factor Serpinb1 [0.03%]
髓系条件型敲除和转基因小鼠模型揭示了中性粒细胞存活因子Serpinb1的阈值效应
Sabrina S Burgener,Mathias Baumann,Paola Basilico et al.
Sabrina S Burgener et al.
Serpinb1 is an inhibitor of neutrophil granule serine proteases cathepsin G, proteinase-3 and elastase. One of its core physiological functions is to protect neutrophils from granule protease-mediated cell death. Mice lacking Serpinb1a (Sb1...
The potential of the Galleria mellonella innate immune system is maximized by the co-presentation of diverse antimicrobial peptides [0.03%]
多元抗菌肽的协同展示可使瓜尔利亚 Mellonella 免疫系统潜力最大化
Mohammad Reza Bolouri Moghaddam,Miray Tonk,Christine Schreiber et al.
Mohammad Reza Bolouri Moghaddam et al.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are ubiquitous components of the insect innate immune system. The model insect Galleria mellonella has at least 18 AMPs, some of which are still uncharacterized in terms of antimicrobial activity. To determine ...
Biophysical analysis of three novel profilin-1 variants associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis indicates a correlation between their aggregation propensity and the structural features of their globular state [0.03%]
