All leukocytes can get entrance into the draining lymph nodes via the afferent lymphatics but only lymphoid cells can leave the nodes. The molecular mechanisms behind this phenomenon have remained unknown. We employed genome wide microarray analyses of the subcapsular
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) terminates cholinergic neurotransmission by hydrolyzing acetylcholine. The collagen-tailed AChE tetramer is a product of 2 genes, ACHE and ColQ. The AChE tetramer consists of 4 identical AChE subunits and one polyproline-rich peptide, whose function is to hold the
This study mainly investigated changes in milk serum proteins by simulating the industrial processing of whole milk powder using a label-free proteomic approach. A total of 391 proteins were identified, 89 of which were quantified in all groups. Compared with
Age-dependent changes in metabolism can manifest as cellular lipid accumulation, but how this accumulation is regulated or impacts longevity is poorly understood. We find that Saccharomyces cerevisiae accumulate lipid droplets (LDs) during aging. We also find that over-expressing BNA2, the

14-3-3η is an intracellular protein also detected in the serum and synovial fluid of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It is closely related to disease activity and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody levels. However, the main source of 14-3-3η and the
Microcon® Centrifugal Filters simply and efficiently concentrate and desalt solutions of DNA, RNA, protein or other macromolecules, using any centrifuge that can accept 1.5 mL tubes.
