TLDR
Reovirus interaction with cell-surface receptors is a critical determinant of both cell-type specific tropism and virus-induced intracellular signaling events that culminate in cell death.

Antibody Blockade of Junctional Adhesion Molecule-A in Rabbit Corneal Endothelial Tight Junctions Produces Corneal Swelling

TL;DR: Investigation of the expression and function of Junctional adhesion molecule-A in the corneal endothelium provides new evidence that JAM-A and its binding partner AF-6 are expressed in tight junctions of the corney endothelial barrier function and that J AM-A has a major role in maintaining the corNEal endothelial Barrier function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Limitrin, a novel immunoglobulin superfamily protein localized to glia limitans formed by astrocyte endfeet.

TL;DR: The results suggest that limitrin is physically and functionally associated with the blood‐brain barrier, implying that this protein may be useful as a diagnostic tool of barrier integrity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of Regions and Residues in Feline Junctional Adhesion Molecule Required for Feline Calicivirus Binding and Infection

TL;DR: It is found that all domains of fJAM-A were necessary to confer susceptibility to FCV infection, and surface expression of f JAM- A was not sufficient to permit FCV infections by all of the isolates the authors investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of epithelial tight junctions involved in pathogen infections

TL;DR: The role of the epithelial TJs involved in various pathogen infections is surveyed, and TJ targeted therapeutic and pharmacological application prospects are extended.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development and in vitro validation of a targeted delivery vehicle for DNA vaccines

TL;DR: Results suggest that sigma1-NLS is a useful bifunctional targeting ligand suitable for enhancing DNA delivery and subsequent gene expression for both DNA vaccine applications and nonviral gene therapy.

Activators and target genes of Rel/NF-kappaB transcription factors.

TL;DR: It is argued that NF-κB functions more generally as a central regulator of stress responses and pairing stress responsiveness and anti-apoptotic pathways through the use of a common transcription factor may result in increased cell survival following stress insults.

Isolation of a Common Receptor for Coxsackie B Viruses and Adenoviruses 2 and 5

TL;DR: Identification of CAR as a receptor for these two unrelated and structurally distinct viral pathogens is important for understanding viral pathogenesis and has implications for therapeutic gene delivery with adenovirus vectors.

The Immunological Synapse: A Molecular Machine Controlling T Cell Activation

TL;DR: Immunological synapse formation is now shown to be an active and dynamic mechanism that allows T cells to distinguish potential antigenic ligands and was a determinative event for T cell proliferation.

NF-κB is a target of AKT in anti-apoptotic PDGF signalling

TL;DR: A role for NF-κB in growth factor signalling is established and an anti-apoptotic Ras/PI(3)K/Akt/IKK/NF-κBs pathway is defined, thus linking anti-APoptotic signalling with transcription machinery.
