“The choroid plexus is seen as a gateway for immune cells, but not much evidence has been shown,” says Xu. “The imaging allowed us to see new immune cells from the blood entering the CSF through the choroid plexus. We also saw cells coming from the spinal fluid onto the choroid plex...
they were able to integrate 25 single-cell RNA sequencing datasets that encompassed the entire healthy GI tract in development and in adults, leading to a healthy gut reference atlas that includes about 1.1 million cells and 136
The fact that corona viruses are the largest class of RNA-virus in action, allows them a key evolutionary feature: having a much longer RNA strand they have a greater chance for mutations and plastic adaptability to the environment (living organisms where they reproduce). This is the core ...
Similarly, a normal cells genetic code can be altered in a small way, such that this alteration will cause it to become a cancerous cell that proliferates and spreads all over the body. But even these types of occurrences are kept in check by anti-cancer genes that work much like an ...
How is RNA formed from DNA? How do cells use the base sequence of a DNA molecule to produce a polypeptide? What type of cells have DNA inside a nucleus? How are DNA, protein, and carbohydrates involved in the structure of your cells?
It is responsible for producing T-cells (see the next section), and is especially important in newborn babies - without a thymus a baby's immune system collapses and the baby will die. The thymus seems to be much less important in adults - for example, you can remove it and an adult...
To answer this question, we must understand the genetic code, which explains how information is transferred from DNA to RNA to a pro... CC Tseng,X Yang - Springer New York 被引量: 0发表: 2013年 In Brucella: Selective pressure may turn some genes on instead of default off position ...
From this, quantitative differences in the proliferative response of T-cells have been closely associated with regions of chromosome 11, indicating that the response to a variety of cytokines that drive T-cell proliferation is controlled by a set of genes, justifying the susceptibility to L. major...
Different from subunit vaccines, RNA-based vaccines work by introducing a mRNA encoding a disease-specific antigen. Once the sequence of interest is inside the cells, it serves as a template to produce the antigen (protein) in situ. After translation, the antigen could be extracellularly transpor...
RNA sequencing using NGS technology requires the isolation of total RNA from single cells (in the case of LCM procedure), specific tissue sections, or whole plant organs. Since total RNA-seq provides an average gene expression profile for the cells used in RNA isolation, it is crucial to obta...
