Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of the human fetal globin gene locus

TL;DR: A ‘map’ of restriction enzyme sites in and around the human γ-globin genes is derived and it is concluded that the correct gene organisation of the human β-like globin locus is GγAγδβ.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arthritogenic Properties of Double-Stranded (Viral) RNA

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that viral dsRNA is clearly arthritogenic, and macrophages and their products play an important role in the development of arthritis triggered by ds RNA, which was triggered through IL-1R signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adenosine is required for sustained inflammasome activation via the A₂A receptor and the HIF-1α pathway.

TL;DR: It is reported that adenosine is a key regulator of inflammasome activity, increasing the duration of the inflammatory response via the A2A receptor, and sustained, after initial activation, by A 2A receptor-mediated signalling.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Scaffold Protein, AHNAK1, Is Required for Calcium Signaling during T Cell Activation

TL;DR: AHNAK1 plays an essential role in T cell Ca2+ signaling through Cav1 channels, triggered via TCR activation; therefore, AHNAK 1 is a potential target for therapeutic intervention.
