Helminth infection represents a major health problem causing approximately 5 million disability-adjusted life years worldwide. Concerns that repeated anti-helminthic treatment may lead to drug resistance render it important that vaccines are developed but ...
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanosized vesicles released by virtually all cell types. Increasing data suggest that EVs function in the regulation of intercellular communication both in physiological and pathological states. In cancer biology, mounting ...
The small intestine is a highly dynamic and complex cellular ecosystem, which serves as the primary interface between the host and its environment. A critical component of this ecosystem is the microbiota, which plays a pivotal role in shaping both immune ...
Cells can take up nanoscale materials, which has important implications for understanding cellular functions, biocompatibility as well as biomedical applications. Controlled uptake, transport and triggered release of nanoscale cargo is one of the great cha ...
High-valent iron-oxo intermediates are implicated in a variety of oxidative enzymes, many of which are capable of the selective partial oxidn. of strong aliph. and arom. C-H bonds. However, mol. iron-oxo species often lack stability, decaying via pathways ...
Enzymic haem and non-haem high-valent iron-oxo species are known to activate strong C-H bonds, yet duplicating this reactivity in a synthetic system remains a formidable challenge. Although instability of the terminal iron-oxo moiety is perhaps the foremos ...

We recently demonstrated that in vitro peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARgamma) activation of mouse peritoneal macrophages by IL-13 or PPARgamma ligands promotes uptake and killing of Candida albicans through mannose receptor overexpres ...
We investigated the wound response of the commercially important red alga, Gracilaria chilensis, in order to obtain insight into its interaction with epiphytic pests. After wounding, the host releases free fatty acids as well as the hydroxylated eicosanoid ...
Adipose tissue eosinophils (ATEs) are important in the control of obesity-associated inflammation and metabolic disease. However, the way in which ageing impacts the regulatory role of ATEs remains unknown. Here, we show that ATEs undergo major age-related ...
