MICAL redox enzymes regulate actin dynamics in many cell types.
Drosophila MICAL regulates myofilament organization and synaptic structure. The overall size and structure of a synaptic terminal is an important determinant of its function. In a large-scale mutagenesis screen, designed to identify Drosophila mutants with abnormally structured neuromuscular junctions (NMJs), we discov...
[ "Mical links semaphorins to F-actin disassembly. How instructive cues present on the cell surface have their precise effects on the actin cytoskeleton is poorly understood. Semaphorins are one of the largest families of these instructive cues and are widely studied for their effects on cell movement, navigation, an...

Alirocumab treatment reduces apo(a) fractional clearance rate.
Effects of PCSK9 Inhibition With Alirocumab on Lipoprotein Metabolism in Healthy Humans. BACKGROUND Alirocumab, a monoclonal antibody to proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), lowers plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and apolipoprotein B100 (apoB). Although studies in mice and cells have ...
[ "Integration of antiretroviral therapy with tuberculosis treatment.. BACKGROUND We previously reported that integrating antiretroviral therapy (ART) with tuberculosis treatment reduces mortality. However, the timing for the initiation of ART during tuberculosis treatment remains unresolved. METHODS We conducted a t...

What is the mechanism of cytokine storm syndrome on the COVID-19?
A pilot study on primary cultures of human respiratory tract epithelial cells to predict patients’ responses to H7N9 infection. Avian influenza A(H7N9) virus infections frequently lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome and death in humans. We aimed to investigate whether primary cultures of human respiratory tract...
[ "Extracellular Vesicles and Ebola Virus: A New Mechanism of Immune Evasion. Ebola virus (EBOV) disease can result in a range of symptoms anywhere from virtually asymptomatic to severe hemorrhagic fever during acute infection. Additionally, spans of asymptomatic persistence in recovering survivors is possible, durin...

Amitriptyline is an effective treatment for chronic tension-type headaches.
Amitriptyline is effective in chronic but not in episodic tension-type headache: pathogenetic implications.. The tricyclic antidepressant, amitriptyline, is an effective drug for the treatment of chronic tension-type headache and for other chronic pain syndromes, but it is also effective in the prophylaxis of an episod...

M. stadtmanae does not induce ASC speck formation in BlaER1 monocytes.
Human Monocytes Engage an Alternative Inflammasome Pathway.. Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) is a cytokine whose bioactivity is controlled by activation of the inflammasome. However, in response to lipopolysaccharide, human monocytes secrete IL-1β independently of classical inflammasome stimuli. Here, we report that this consti...
