  • The goal of this study was to examine the activity of IL-15/IL-15Rα complex (IL-15cx) to CD8 + T cells and evaluate its potential efficacy in murine breast cancer models. (frontiersin.org)
  • Golgi fragmentation is a highly regulated process that allows division of the Golgi complex between the two daughter cells. (biologists.com)
  • An inability to degrade immune complexes in the lysosome and subsequent accumulation on the surface of immune cells has been associated with systemic lupus erythematosus. (wikipedia.org)
  • After B cells are activated, they differentiate into plasma cells and cease to express BCR but continue to express FcγRIIb, which allows IgG immune complexes to regulate IgG production via negative feedback and prevent uncontrolled IgG production. (wikipedia.org)
  • Immune complexes, particularly those made of IgG, also play a variety of roles in the activation and regulation of phagocytes, which include dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages. (wikipedia.org)
  • These findings appear irreconcilable with the possibility of direct clonal selection of antibody-producing cells by unprocessed antigen. (caltech.edu)
  • NK cells respond to tumor and virus-infected cells directly through several activation receptors, including natural cytotoxicity receptors, or indirectly through the activating Fc receptor CD16 for antibody-coated cells. (nih.gov)
  • The results suggest that PRKRA functions in the nuage as an element of RNA silencing system and plays unknown role in the ectoplasmic specialization and at the tubulobulbar complexes of Sertoli cells attaching the head of late spermatids. (hindawi.com)
  • On the other hand, there is a positive correlation statistically significant between the titer IIFA for complex gH / gL and the titer of HCMV-NT. (cmvpromotor.com)
  • There was no correlation between anti-TNP-precipitating antibody titer after sensitization and the ability to respond to challenge by hapten-heterologous carrier. (caltech.edu)
  • Quantitative antibody nitrogen data, obtained for the serum of each rabbit showed, in general, an inverse relationship between circulating antibody and radioactivity retained, i.e. the higher the circulating antibody titer, the lower the retention of radioactivity in liver tissue. (caltech.edu)
  • A neutralizing anti-VEGF antibody shown to suppress tumor growth in an in vivo murine model has been used as the basis for production of a humanized version. (rcsb.org)
  • Two individuals with low baseline viral loads experienced ART-free viral suppression for ≥168 days following antibody infusion, and rebound viruses in these individuals demonstrated full or partial PGT121 sensitivity. (nature.com)
  • The principal problem with the electrophoretic methods has been low sensitivity caused by the low concentration of sample analyte in a narrow injection zone and dispersion of the immune-complex during separation. (techconnect.org)
  • Initially, all antibodies are of the first form, attached to the surface of a B cell - these are then referred to as B-cell receptors (BCR). (wikipedia.org)
  • IgG immune complexes are the ligand for these receptors and immune complex binding to these receptors induces apoptosis, or cell death. (wikipedia.org)
  • However, this approach relies on the formation of a complex in solution between the two vaccine components. (bvsalud.org)
  • [5] The soluble Y-shaped units can occur individually as monomers , or in complexes of two to five units. (wikipedia.org)

  • Structure guided mimicry of an essential P. falciparum receptor-ligand complex enhances cross neutralizing antibodies. (bvsalud.org)
  • Because these fluids were traditionally known as humors , antibody-mediated immunity is sometimes known as, or considered a part of, humoral immunity . (wikipedia.org)
  • Creatinine analysis uses a Jaffé rate reaction, in which creatinine reacts with picrate in an alkaline solution to form a red creatinine-picrate complex. (cdc.gov)
  • This complex then reacts with fluorescein-labeled antibody. (cdc.gov)
