The mesoglea buffers the physico-chemical microenvironment of photosymbionts in the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea sp.

Anders Meibom, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Michael Kühl

IntroductionThe jellyfish Cassiopea has a conspicuous lifestyle, positioning itself upside-down on sediments in shallow waters thereby exposing its photosynthetic endosymbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) to light. Several studies have shown how the photosymbionts b ...

Emerging dimensions of cellular cGAS-STING signaling

Andrea Ablasser, Baptiste Claude André Guey

The recognition of DNA through the cGAS-STING pathway plays a critical role in antiviral immunity, but can also drive maladaptive immune responses underlying several pathological conditions. Despite its importance, understanding the organization of cGAS-ST ...

A Subpopulation of Smooth Muscle Cells, Derived from Melanocyte-Competent Precursors, Prevents Patent Ductus Arteriosus

Friedrich Beermann

Background: Patent ductus arteriosus is a life-threatening condition frequent in premature newborns but also present in some term infants. Current mouse models of this malformation generally lead to perinatal death, not reproducing the full phenotypic spec ...

Notch1 and Notch2 receptors influence progressive hair graying in a dose-dependent manner

Freddy Radtke, Friedrich Beermann

The Notch signaling pathway is involved in diverse biological processes such as cell fate decisions or stem cell maintenance. In this study, we assessed the role of this pathway for melanocyte development and hair pigmentation using RBP-Jkappa, Notch1, and ...

Melanocytes and pigmentation are affected in dopachrome tautomerase knockout mice

Friedrich Beermann

The tyrosinase family comprises three members, tyrosinase (Tyr), tyrosinase-related protein 1 (Tyrp1), and dopachrome tautomerase (Dct). Null mutations and deletions at the Tyr and Tyrp1 loci are known and phenotypically affect coat color due to the absenc ...

Activation and regulation of Toll-like receptors 2 and 1 in human leprosy

Stewart Cole

The expression and activation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) was investigated in leprosy, a spectral disease in which clinical manifestations correlate with the type of immune response mounted toward Mycobacterium leprae. TLR2-TLR1 heterodimers mediated cel ...
