Proteins that specifically recognize modified DNA, RNA or proteins via special protein domains. Long non-coding RNAs Transcripts, longer than 200 nucleotides, that resemble protein-coding mRNAs in that they are capped, spliced and polyadenylated RNA polymerase II transcripts, but they lack a protein...
The purpose of the response, especially when the antigen is from an infecting microorganism, is to turn this microscopical event into a larger event as soon as possible, so that both antibody and T cells can be brought into action on a significant scale. Immune reactions are specifically ...
Transcriptome sequencing has been performed to understand the differential response toFocTR4 between resistant and susceptible banana genotypes, but how the resistant banana genotypes avoided infection have not been conclusive. In the previous NGS analyses32,34,35, the untreated banana roots harvested as ...
Antibody detection ELISAs are commonly used to diagnose infection due to their high sensitivity and specificity and are typically based on native fluke excretory/secretory (ES) products or cathepsin L1 (CL1), the immunodominant antigen within ES products. These tests have been developed based on ...
In the productive infection, previous reports demonstrate that HCMV induces premature senescence in early passage human fibroblasts, similar to senescent cells which have reached the limit of their replicative capacity [108]. Specifically, the IE1 protein activates and interacts with p53, causing p53 ...
Heterogeneity of the population in relation to infection, COVID-19 vaccination, and host characteristics is likely reflected in the underlying SARS-CoV-2 antibody responses. We measured IgM, IgA, and IgG levels against SARS-CoV-2 spike and nucleocapsid a
amplifying the exposure of communities and individuals to HIV infection and other infections [59]. In a second example, methamphetamine use has been shown to affect a person’s judgment and may lead to unsafe behaviors such as reduced condom use, multiple partners, and increased drug injection. ...
Specifically, we used baseline data aggregated at the village level to match villages and then compared endline malaria prevalence among matched villages, applying weights generated from the baseline data. This matching procedure retained 55 out of the 85 villages that were surveyed in both waves ...

Acute infection is known to induce rapid expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), but the mechanisms supporting this expansion remain incomplete. Using mouse models, we show that inducible CD36 is required for free fatty acid uptake by HSCs during a
