抗原变异可使得多种致病微生物易于逃避宿主免疫应答。表达在感染红细胞表面的恶性疟原虫红细胞表面蛋白1（PfPMP1）与感染红细胞、内皮细胞、树突状细胞以及胎盘的单个或多个受体作用，在黏附及免疫逃避中起关键的作用。每个单倍体基因组var基因家族编码约60种成员，通过启动转录不同的var基因变异体为抗原变异提供了分子基础。read more

Mindblind Eyes: An Absence of Spontaneous Theory of Mind in Asperger Syndrome
TL;DR: An eye-tracking task that has revealed the spontaneous ability to mentalize in typically developing infants is used, and it is shown that, like infants, neurotypical adults’ eye movements anticipated an actor’s behavior on the basis of her false belief.

The competitive cost of antibiotic resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Sebastien Gagneux,Clara Davis Long,Peter M. Small,Peter M. Small,Tran Van,Gary K. Schoolnik,Brendan J. M. Bohannan +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that prolonged patient treatment can result in multidrug-resistant strains with no fitness defect and that strains with low- or no-cost resistance mutations are also the most frequent among clinical isolates.

The Mammalian Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) Pathway Regulates Mitochondrial Oxygen Consumption and Oxidative Capacity
Stefan M. Schieke,Darci Phillips,J. Philip McCoy,Angel Aponte,Rong Fong Shen,Robert S. Balaban,Toren Finkel +6 more
TL;DR: RNA interference-mediated knockdown of TSC2, p70 S6 kinase (S6K1), raptor, or rictor demonstrates that mTOR regulates mitochondrial activity independently of its previously identified cellular targets, and mTOR activity may play an important role in determining the relative balance between mitochondrial and non-mitochondrial sources of ATP generation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Cholinergic Anti-inflammatory Pathway: A Missing Link in Neuroimmunomodulation
TL;DR: The modulation of systemic and local inflammation by the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway and its function as an interface between the brain and the immune system are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxidative stress and Parkinson’s disease
TL;DR: A mini review of the classical pathways involving these mechanisms of neurodegeneration, the biochemical and molecular events that mediate or regulate DA neuronal vulnerability, and the role of PD-related gene products in modulating cellular responses to oxidative stress in the course of the Neurodegenerative process are given.

TL;DR: This work shows that graphene's electronic structure is captured in its Raman spectrum that clearly evolves with the number of layers, and allows unambiguous, high-throughput, nondestructive identification of graphene layers, which is critically lacking in this emerging research area.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finding and evaluating community structure in networks.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the algorithms proposed are highly effective at discovering community structure in both computer-generated and real-world network data, and can be used to shed light on the sometimes dauntingly complex structure of networked systems.

TL;DR: This study reveals a family of endonucleases that use dual-RNAs for site-specific DNA cleavage and highlights the potential to exploit the system for RNA-programmable genome editing.

Understanding the Warburg Effect: The Metabolic Requirements of Cell Proliferation
TL;DR: It is proposed that the metabolism of cancer cells, and indeed all proliferating cells, is adapted to facilitate the uptake and incorporation of nutrients into the biomass needed to produce a new cell.
