Abstract NK cells express both inhibitory and activatory receptors that allow them to recognize target through HLA class I Ag expression. KIR3DL1 is a receptor recognizes the HLA-Bw4 public epitope of HLA-B alleles. We demonstrate polymorphism within has functional consequences in terms cell recognition target. Inhibitory alleles differ their ability ligand, consistent hierarchy ligand reactivity can be defined. KIR3DS1, which segregates as an allele KIR3DL1, short cytoplasmic tail...
Hepatitis C is a common infection with significant morbidity and mortality, only minority of patients successfully clear the infection. Identification factors that influence disease progression in HCV difficult owing to lack well-defined patient cohorts. However, recent evidence supports role for innate immune system virus clearance. In this study, we investigated genes their contribution unique cohort well-controlled HCV-infected patients. The Irish uniquely homogenous; were infected single...
Abiotic stresses cause oxidative damage in plants. Here, we demonstrate that foliar application of an extract from the seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum, SuperFifty (SF), largely prevents paraquat (PQ)-induced stress Arabidopsis thaliana. While PQ-stressed plants develop necrotic lesions, pre-treated with SF (i.e., primed plants) were unaffected by PQ. Transcriptome analysis revealed induction reactive oxygen species (ROS) marker genes, genes involved ROS-induced programmed cell death, and...
Abiotic stresses, which at the molecular level leads to oxidative damage, are major determinants of crop yield loss worldwide. Therefore, considerable efforts directed towards developing strategies for their limitation and mitigation. Here superoxide-inducing agent paraquat (PQ) was used generate stress in model species Arabidopsis thaliana crops tomato pepper. Pre-treatment with biostimulant SuperFifty (SF) effectively universally suppressed PQ-induced leaf lesions, H2O2 build up, cell...
The use of probiotics, prebiotics and synbiotics in poultry diets beneficially stimulates the gut microbiome thus promoting health welfare animals. In this study, we analyzed 7 probiotics (Lactobacillus plantarum - B1 B4, Lactobacillus rhamnosus B3, Bifidobacterium lactis B2, Carnobacterium divergens B5, Propionibacterium thoenii B6, Clostridium butyricum B7) 12 prebiotics, differing chemical composition source origin (fungi, algae, animal, etc.). main goal our research was to select most...
