Journal ArticleDOI

Aire regulates the transfer of antigen from mTECs to dendritic cells for induction of thymic tolerance.

TL;DR: This study indicates that mTECs can mediate tolerance by direct presentation of Aire-regulated antigens to both CD4 and CD8 T cells, and supports the view that one mechanism by which Aire controls thymic negative selection is by regulating the indirect presentation of mT EC-derived antigen by thymi dendritic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metformin as a prevention and treatment for preeclampsia: effects on soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 and soluble endoglin secretion and endothelial dysfunction

TL;DR: The effects of metformin on endothelial dysfunction, maternal blood vessel vasodilation, and angiogenesis are examined and it is suggested that soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 and soluble endoglin secretion is regulated through the mitochondria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Pravastatin on Human Placenta, Endothelium, and Women With Severe Preeclampsia

TL;DR: Results indicate that pravastatin reduced sFlt-1 and soluble endoglin production and decreased endothelial dysfunction in primary human tissues, and pilot data is presented, suggesting that prabastatin can stabilize clinical and biochemical features of preterm preeclampsia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parasite-encoded Hsp40 proteins define novel mobile structures in the cytosol of the P. falciparum-infected erythrocyte.

TL;DR: This study identifies a further extra‐parasitic structure in the P. falciparum‐infected erythrocyte, which is named ‘J‐dots’ and suggests that these J‐d dots are involved in trafficking of parasite‐encoded proteins through the cytosol of the infected ery Throcyte.
