Structure and Function of the Branched Receptor-Binding Complex of Bacteriophage CBA120

Petr Leiman, Sergey Nazarov, Sergii Buth, Michel Plattner

Bacteriophages recognize their host cells with the help of tail fiber and tailspike proteins that bind, cleave, or modify certain structures on the cell surface. The spectrum of ligands to which the tail fibers and tailspikes can bind is the primary determ ...

Weevil pgrp-lb prevents endosymbiont TCT dissemination and chronic host systemic immune activation

Florent François Masson, João Pedro Alves Da Silva

Long-term intracellular symbiosis (or endosymbiosis) is widely distributed across invertebrates and is recognized as a major driving force in evolution. However, the maintenance of immune homeostasis in organisms chronically infected with mutualistic bacte ...

HIV Transmission Chains Exhibit Greater HLA-B Homogeneity Than Randomly Expected

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball

Background: HIV's capacity to escape immune recognition by human leukocyte antigen (HLA) is a core component of HIV pathogenesis. A better understanding of the distribution of HLA class I in HIV-infected patients would improve our knowledge of pathogenesis ...

Mesenchymal stromal cell exosomes prevent and revert experimental pulmonary fibrosis through modulation of monocyte phenotypes

Sina Nassiri, Nahal Mansouri

Mesenchymal stromal/stem cell (MSC) therapy has shown promise in experimental models of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The aim of this study was to test the therapeutic effects of extracellular vesicles produced by human BM MSCs (MEx) in a bleomycin- ...

Fiber density of collagen grafts impacts rabbit urethral regeneration

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Hans Mattias Larsson, Elif Vardar

There is a need for efficient and “off-the-shelf” grafts in urethral reconstructive surgery. Currently available surgical techniques require harvesting of grafts from autologous sites, with increased risk of surgical complications and added patient discomf ...

Development of functionalized alginate-based hydrogels to reduce fibrosis in the transplantation of microencapsulated cells

François Rémi Pierre Noverraz

Nowadays, the development of cell therapy relies mainly on the advances made toward cell microencapsulation which allows to evade the need for immunosuppression during cell transplantation. Among the materials considered for cell encapsulation, hydrogels d ...

The double-edged toxins : how Spiroplasma Ribosome-Inactivating Proteins affect Drosophila melanogaster life history traits

Mario Gonzalo Garcia Arraez

Many insect species are associated with endosymbiotic bacteria which have the particularity of living within host tissues. Endosymbionts benefit from this stable and nutritious environment, while providing ecological advantages to their host, such as prote ...
