چکیده

The host immune response is initiated by pattern recognition receptors (PRR) when triggered by specific ligands known as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMP). Toll-like receptor 9 is highly expressed in plasmacytoid dendritic cells and is well described as a PRR for CpG DNA which induce the production of cytokines and type I interferons. In this issue of The EMBO Journal, Rigby et al identify RNA-DNA hybrids as a novel PAMP specifically recognized by TLR9 in dendritic cells.

A novel diethyl 2-(9-fluorenyl) malonate functionlized SBA-15 for selective optical sensing of Iron

In this study, highly ordered mesoporous silica material (SBA-15) functionalized with Diethyl 2 - (9 -fluorenyl) malonate as a flourophore is reported. The anchoring of flourophores to the hydroxyl group on SBA-15 surface was done with post synthesis method. The obtained materials were characterized by small and wide angle X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption–desorption, Fourier transform infrared ...

Intracellular proadrenomedullin-derived peptides decorate the microtubules and contribute to cytoskeleton function.

Adrenomedullin (AM) and proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) are secretory hormones, but it is not unusual to find them in intracellular compartments. Using yeast-2 hybrid technology, we found interactions between AM and several microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs), and between PAMP and tubulin. Expression of fluorescent-tagged AM and PAMP as well as immunofluorescence for the nativ...

Evaluation of Soluble Toll-Like Receptors 2, 4, 9 and Their Damps Signaling Molecules (HMGB1 & HSP70) in Breast Cancer Patients of Basrah Province

Introduction: Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs) are members of pattern recognition receptors that recognize various molecules, including pathogen-associated molecular patterns and dead-associated molecular patterns. These receptors are expressed by immune, non-immune, and tumor cells. Some TLRs are implicated in tumor progression, while others are involved in tumor suppression. Our study aimed to eval...

A Novel Hybrid Nano Scale MOSFET Structure for Low Leak Application

In this paper, novel hybrid MOSFET(HMOS) structure has been proposed to reduce the gate leakage current drastically. This novel hybrid MOSFET (HMOS) uses source/drain-to-gate non-overlap region in combination with high-K layer/interfacial oxide as gate stack. The extended S/D in the non-overlap region is induced by fringing gate electric field through the high-k dielectric spacer. The gate leak...
