  • Molecular Analysis of DNA Rearrangements in the Immune System

    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    The vertebrate immune system is distinctive among defense systems of multicellular organisms. In addition to nonspecific immunity, it generates a randomized array of millions of antigen receptors (immunoglobulins and T-cell receptors). A subset of these receptors are critical for binding to invading microbes or biochemicals from them to tag the microbes for elimination. Three site-directed DNA ... Read more

  • Emerging Concepts of Tumor Exosome–Mediated Cell-Cell Communication

    Edited by Huang-Ge Zhang ...
    Series series Biomedical and Life Sciences (R0)
    In multicellular organisms, communication between cells involves secretion of proteins that bind to receptors on neighboring cells. While this has been well documented, another mode of intercellular communication has recently become the subject of increasing interest: the release of exosomes. In cancer, tumor exosomes are involved in various aspects of pathogenesis, including proliferation, ... Read more

  • Arachidonate Remodeling and Inflammation

    Series series Progress in Inflammation Research
    Arachidonic acid (AA) and other 20 or 22-carbon polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are precursors of lipid mediators of inflammation known as eicosanoids. These mediators are critical in disease processes and in regulating normal cell function. Remodeling is important in maintaining homeostasis and in regulating cell function by dictating how PUFAs are converted to lipid mediators of inflammation ... Read more
