MAIT Cells Monitor Gut Microbiota Dysbiosis and Protect the Host in Colitis Research Background As research on the relationship between the gut and host health deepens, changes in the gut microbiome are closely related to various human diseases, especially inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Currently, it is recognized that under homeostatic conditio...

Differential Study of GPCR-G Protein Coupling Biosensors Background Introduction G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are important molecules for transmembrane signal transduction, capable of selectively binding to heterotrimeric G proteins composed of Gα, Gβ, and Gγ subunits and regulating various intracellular signaling processes. Studying the fun...

Academic News Report: The Temporal and Spatial Bias in β-arrestin Signal Transduction Mediated by G Protein-Coupled Receptor Endocytosis Research Background Among cell surface receptor families, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) constitute the largest family. Upon activation by ligands, they interact with various signaling proteins to trigger int...

Study of TGF-β1 in Fibrosis Progression: An Exploration of an Antibody Targeting Binding Proteins Research Background Fibrosis is a leading cause of poor prognosis in numerous diseases, such as chronic kidney disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Despite the substantial medical need, directly targeting fibrosis ...

Review on the Study of IL-12 Promoting Human Follicular Regulatory T Cell Differentiation Research Background Follicular helper T cells (Tfh) play a crucial regulatory role in B cell responses to pathogens and vaccines. When not properly controlled, Tfh cells can lead to the production of antibodies against self-antigens or allergens. Follicular re...
