The Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM1) protein has emerged as a pivotal player in the intricate web of immunological responses, particularly in the context of inflammatory diseases. Unraveling the mysteries of TREM1 entails delving into its structure, function, and implications in various pathological conditions, shedding light on its potential as a therapeutic target. ...
Tetrahydrocurcumin (THC), as the most active and main metabolite produced in the metabolism of curcumin in vivo, can be isolated from the cytoplasm of the small intestine and liver after curcumin administration in human or mouse. Tetrahydrocurcumin can effectively inhibit tyrosinase, inhibit the generation of Oxygen Free Radicals and scavenge the formed free radicals. It has obvious antioxidant ...
The advent of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) has improved the overall survival of patients with a variety of malignancies. However, the problem of drug resistance to ICI therapy remains a major obstacle limiting its clinical application. The development of drug resistance is associated with multiple factors, including the level of PD-L1 expression in tumor cells, the tumor microenvironment, ...
Q. How did you develop your interest in the regenerative medicine and stem cell space? A. Born and raised in Indonesia, where the curriculum was quite focused on science, I have always been intrigued in life sciences and everything related. I came to Australia for university in 2008 and completed a Bachelor of Biotechnology at the University of New South Wales (UNSW). While there was a myriad ...
Abstract Fibronectin in the vascular wall promotes inflammatory activation of the endothelium during vascular remodeling and atherosclerosis. These effects are mediated in part by fibronectin binding to integrin α5, which recruits and activates phosphodiesterase 4D5 (PDE4D5) by inducing its dephosphorylation on an inhibitory site, S651. Active PDE then hydrolyzes antiinflammatory cAMP to ...
The aim of this work was to establish a structural model for describing the organisation, at a molecular level, of nanospheres prepared by nanoprecipitation using poly(ε-caprolactone), sorbitan monostearate and polysorbate 80. Therefore, different techniques were employed to characterise the systems such as dynamic and static light scattering, small angle X-ray scattering and release profile ...
