Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as candidate biomarkers of various diseases and conditions including malignancy pregnancy. This approach requires sensitive accurate quantitation miRNA concentrations in body fluids. Herein we report that enzyme-based quantitation, which is currently the mainstream for identifying differences abundance among samples, skewed by endogenous serum factors co-purify with miRNAs anticoagulant agents used during collection. Of importance, different were...

Decidual natural killer (NK) cells express inhibitory receptors (killer immunoglobulin-like receptors, KIRs), which bind to ligands on trophoblast (human leucocyte antigen, HLA-C). This interaction appears block NK cytotoxicity against cells.

Abstract Neutrophils kill microorganisms by inducing exocytosis of granules with antibacterial properties. Four isoforms the “a” subunit V-ATPase—a1V, a2V, a3V, and a4V—have been identified. a2V is expressed in white blood cells, that is, on surface monocytes or activated lymphocytes. Neutrophil associated-a2V was found membranes primary (azurophilic) less often secondary (specific) granules, tertiary (gelatinase granules), secretory vesicles. However, it not resting neutrophils. Following...

The protein consists a membrane‐associated domain an extracellular portion which is proteolitically cleaved yield soluble peptide. In humans, it shown be expressed by invading cytotrophoblasts decidual lymphoid cells, increased on peripheral blood B lymphocytes during normal...
