Regulation of these receptors and signaling pathways is vital for the innate immune processes. Intercellular communication may facilitate a new understanding of innate immunity and the relevant ...

Peroxynitrite induces cell death, and can influence signal-transduction processes, mitochondrial function and signalling of apoptosis. The formation and reactions of peroxynitrite play a ...

Inflammatory responses are closely associated with many neurologic disorders and influence their outcome. In vivo imaging can document events accompanying neuroinflammation, such as changes in blood ...

Abstract: Polymers have wide-ranging applications in food packaging and decorative products, and as insulation for electronic devices. For these applications, the adhesion of materials deposited onto ...

In recent years, exosomes have emerged as crucial mediators of intercellular communication, fundamentally altering our understanding of biological signaling networks. These nano-sized extracellular ...
