In rodents there is a sialic acid gradient where the highest levels are at the villus tip and decrease as you move deeper into the crypt. (Jaswal et al., 1988). Given that rotaviruses use sialic acid as a co-receptor for entry, these findings might explain why rotavirus preferentially ...
In Alzheimer’s disease (AD), microglia form distinct cellular aggregates that play critical roles in disease progression, including Aβ plaque-associated microglia (PaM) and the newly identified coffin-like microglia (CoM). PaM are closely associated with amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques, while CoM are...

Mutations in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene have been recognized as genetic risk factors for Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, compared to cancer, fewer genetic mutations contribute to the cause of PD, propelling the search for protein b
Define and illustrate the following terms clearly and concisely. Write an equation to illustrate the meaning of each term neutralization according to Lewis's theory. Describe the three main types of acid-base reactions: neutralization reactions, acid-metal reactions, and acid-metal oxide reactions. ...
