In both cancer and infections, diseased cells are presented to human Vγ9Vδ2 T through an 'inside out' signalling process whereby structurally diverse phosphoantigen (pAg) molecules sensed by the intracellular domain of butyrophilin BTN3A11-4. Here we show how-in humans alpaca-multiple pAgs function as 'molecular glues' promote heteromeric association between domains BTN3A1 similar BTN2A1. X-ray crystallography studies visualized that engagement with forms a composite interface for direct...

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a typical immunosuppressive causing large economic impact on the swine industry. The structural protein GP5 of PRRSV plays pivotal role in its pathogenicity immune evasion. Virus–host interactions play crucial part viral replication escape. Therefore, understanding between host proteins are significant for porcine (PRRS) control. However, interaction network primary alveolar macrophages (PAMs) has not been reported. In this...

The mammalian Ste20-like kinase 1 (Mst-1) is a serine-threonine and component of the Hippo tumor suppressor pathway, which reacts to pathologically relevant stress regulates cell death. However, little known about its role in spinal cord injury. Here, we found that p-Mst-1, activated form Mst-1, was induced post-traumatic motor neurons. In vivo evidence demonstrated Mst-1 deficiency promoted neuron survival, Basso mouse scale scores, synapse survival. Moreover, autophagosome formation...
