Mycoplasma hyorhinis swine arthritis.
The belief that rheumatoid arthritis may be of infectious origin has led us to studies of mycoplasmal arthritidies of swine as a potential animal model (1). In parallel with the previously reported study of Mycoplasma hyorhinis arthritis in conventional Yorkshire swine, a pilot study of the disease in a miniature strain of swine was undertaken on the grounds that a susceptible miniature breed w...
متن کاملGingipains of Porphyromonas gingivalis modulate leukocyte adhesion molecule expression induced in human endothelial cells by ligation of CD99.
Porphyromonas gingivalis has been implicated as a key etiologic agent in the pathogenesis of destructive chronic periodontitis. Among virulence factors of this organism are cysteine proteinases, or gingipains, that have the capacity to modulate host inflammatory defenses. Intercellular adhesion molecule expression by vascular endothelium represents a crucial process for leukocyte transendotheli...
متن کاملRole of glycosylation sites in the IgE Fc molecule.
The Fc region of immunoglobulin E (IgE) comprising the C epsilon 3 and C epsilon 4 domains (residues 329-547) is sufficient for binding to the high-affinity IgE Fc receptor (Fc epsilon RI alpha). Three potential N-linked glycosylation sites are present within the C epsilon 3 domain. To determine the effect of the glycosylation sites on IgE Fc synthesis and on Fc epsilon RI alpha binding, site-d...
متن کاملElectronic single-molecule identification of carbohydrate isomers by recognition tunnelling
Carbohydrates are one of the four main building blocks of life, and are categorized as monosaccharides (sugars), oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. Each sugar can exist in two alternative anomers (in which a hydroxy group at C-1 takes different orientations) and each pair of sugars can form different epimers (isomers around the stereocentres connecting the sugars). This leads to a vast combi...
متن کاملSingle-molecule recognition imaging microscopy.
Atomic force microscopy is a powerful and widely used imaging technique that can visualize single molecules and follow processes at the single-molecule level both in air and in solution. For maximum usefulness in biological applications, atomic force microscopy needs to be able to identify specific types of molecules in an image, much as fluorescent tags do for optical microscopy. The results p...
