A technique called selected reaction monitoring can quantitatively detect highly diversified protein isoforms and their association with specific neuronal structures and complexes.
An immune system pattern recognition receptor potentiates anti-tumor innate immune responses, offering new insight into anti-tumor activity of the innate immune system.
The nematode worm C. elegans consumes familiar bacterial species more rapidly than it does novel ones, and this preference for familiarity is mediated by a pair of serotonergic neurons.
A widespread family of chaperones functions to stabilize membrane protein effectors by mimicking transmembrane helical environments and promotes effector export by the bacterial type VI secretion system.
The ovarian immune system ages while coping with the two main challenges of the aging ovary before menopause, the inflammatory stimulations due to repeated cycles and the increasing need for clearance of accumulating atretic follicles.
