TL;DR: CpG ODN provide a signal to switch on Th1-dominated responses to coadministered antigen and are potential adjuvants for human vaccines to elicit protective Th1 immunity.
Abstract: Synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) that contain unmethylated CpG motifs (CpG ODN) induce macrophages to secrete IL-12, which induces interferon (IFN)-γ secretion by natural killer (NK) cells. Since these cytokines can induce T helper 1 (Th1) differentiation, we examined the effects of coadministered CpG ODN on the differentiation of Th responses to hen egg lysozyme (HEL). In both BALB/c (Th2-biased) and B10.D2 (Th1-biased) mice, immunization with HEL in incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA) resulted in Th2-dominated immune responses characterized by HEL-specific secretion of IL-5 but not IFN-γ. In contrast, immunization with IFA-HEL plus CpG ODN switched the immune response to a Th1-dominated cytokine pattern, with high levels of HEL-specific IFN-γ secretion and decreased HEL-specific IL-5 production. IFA-HEL plus CpG ODN also induced anti-HEL IgG2a (a Th1-associated isotype), which was not induced by IFA-HEL alone. Control non–CpG ODN did not induce IFN-γ or IgG2a, excepting lesser increases in B10.D2 (Th1-biased) mice. Thus, CpG ODN provide a signal to switch on Th1-dominated responses to coadministered antigen and are potential adjuvants for human vaccines to elicit protective Th1 immunity.

TL;DR: The synthesized C, N, and S-doped titania nanomaterials show an increased electron density of states above the valence band of TiO2, which explains the red-shifted light absorption of these potential photocatalysts and simultaneously suggests a lowered potential as photooxidants compared to Degussa P25 TiO 2.
Abstract: The origin of the visible-light absorption of main-group element (C, N, S) doped TiO2 nanostructures is investigated via diffuse reflectance and valence band X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The synthesized C-, N-, and S-doped titania nanomaterials show an increased electron density of states above the valence band of TiO2, which explains the red-shifted light absorption of these potential photocatalysts and simultaneously suggests a lowered potential as photooxidants compared to Degussa P25 TiO2.

TL;DR: It is reported here that inherited variants in the SORL1 neuronal sorting receptor are associated with late-onset Alzheimer disease, and it is shown that SOR l1 directs trafficking of APP into recycling pathways and that when SORl1 is underexpressed, APP is sorted into Aβ-generating compartments.
Abstract: The recycling of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) from the cell surface via the endocytic pathways plays a key role in the generation of amyloid beta peptide (Abeta) in Alzheimer disease. We report here that inherited variants in the SORL1 neuronal sorting receptor are associated with late-onset Alzheimer disease. These variants, which occur in at least two different clusters of intronic sequences within the SORL1 gene (also known as LR11 or SORLA) may regulate tissue-specific expression of SORL1. We also show that SORL1 directs trafficking of APP into recycling pathways and that when SORL1 is underexpressed, APP is sorted into Abeta-generating compartments. These data suggest that inherited or acquired changes in SORL1 expression or function are mechanistically involved in causing Alzheimer disease.
