摘要:Integrin activation resulting in enhanced adhesion to the extracellular matrix plays a key role in fundamental cellular processes. Although integrin activation has been extensively studied in circulating cells such as leukocytes and platelets, much less is known about the regulation and functional impact of integrin activation in adherent cells such as smooth muscle. Here, we show that two different asthmagenic cytokines, IL- 13 and IL- 17A, activate type I and IL- 17 cytokine receptor familie...

摘要:Chromosomal abnormalities are a common cause of human miscarriage but rarely reported in any other species. As a result, there are currently inadequate animal models available to study this condition. Horses present one potential model since mares receive intense gynecological care. This allowed us to investigate the prevalence of chromosomal copy number aberrations in 256 products of conception (POC) in a naturally occurring model of pregnancy loss (PL). Triploidy (three haploid sets of chrom...

摘要:Johne's disease (JD), a chronic, infectious enteritis caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP), affects wild and domestic ruminants. There is no cure or effective prevention, and current vaccines have substantial limitations, leaving this disease widespread in all substantial dairy industries causing economic, and animal welfare implications. Mycobacteriophages (MPs) have been gaining interest in recent years and are proposed as a promising solution to curtailing MAP infecti...

摘要:The 2011 discovery of the first rare earth-dependent enzyme in methylotrophic Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 prompted intensive research toward understanding the unique chemistry at play in these systems. This enzyme, an alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), features a La3+ ion closely associated with redox- active coenzyme pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) and is structurally homologous to the Ca2+- dependent ADH from the same organstructurally characterized to 1.46- & Aring; resolution by X- ray diffra...

摘要:Plants release a wealth of metabolites into the rhizosphere that can shape the composition and activity of microbial communities in response to environmental stress. The connection between rhizodeposition and rhizosphere microbiome succession has been suggested, particularly under environmental stress conditions, yet definitive evidence is scarce. In this study, we investigated the relationship between rhizosphere chemistry, microbiome dynamics, and abiotic stress in the bioenergy crop switchg...

摘要:California faces several serious direct and indirect climate exposures that can adversely affect public health, some of which are already occurring. The public health burden now and in the future will depend on atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations, underlying population vulnerabilities, and adaptation efforts. Here, we present a structured review of recent literature to examine the leading climate risks to public health in California, including extreme heat, extreme precipitation, wildfir...

摘要:Heteromorphic sex chromosomes (XY or ZW) present problems of gene dosage imbalance between sexes and with autosomes. A need for dosage compensation has long been thought to be critical in vertebrates. However, this was questioned by findings of unequal mRNA abundance measurements in monotreme mammals and birds. Here, we demonstrate unbalanced mRNA levels of X genes in platypus males and females and a correlation with differential loading of histone modifications. We also observed unbalanced tr...

摘要:Low socioeconomic status (SES) is a risk factor for mortality and immune dysfunction across a wide range of diseases, including cancer. However, cancer is distinct in the use of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) as a treatment for hematologic malignancies to transfer healthy hematopoietic cells from one person to another. This raises the question of whether social disadvantage of an HCT cell donor, as assessed by low SES, might impact the subsequent health outcomes of the HCT...

摘要:We generated a replication-- competent OC43 human seasonal coronavirus (CoV) expressing the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-- CoV-2)- 2) spike in place of the native spike (rOC43-CoV2- CoV2 S). This virus is highly attenuated relative to OC43 and SARS-CoV-2- CoV- 2 in cultured cells and animals and is classified as a biosafety level 2 (BSL-2)- 2) agent by the NIH biosafety committee. Neutralization of rOC43-CoV2- CoV2 S and SARS-CoV-2- CoV- 2 by S-- specific monoclonal an...

摘要:Cerebral (Af3) f3 ) plaque and (pTau) tangle deposition are hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD), yet are insufficient to confer complete AD- like neurodegeneration experimentally. Factors acting upstream of Af3/pTau f3 /pTau in AD remain unknown, but their identification could enable earlier diagnosis and more effective treatments. T cell abnormalities are emerging AD hallmarks, and CD8 T cells were recently found to mediate neurodegeneration downstream of tangle deposition in hereditary neu...
