Abstract Plant genomes encode hundreds of receptor kinases and peptides, but the number known plant receptor-ligand pairs is limited. We report that Arabidopsis leucine-rich repeat kinase LRR-RK MALE DISCOVERER 1-INTERACTING RECEPTOR LIKE KINASE 2 (MIK2) for SERINE RICH ENDOGENOUS PEPTIDE (SCOOP) phytocytokines. MIK2 necessary sufficient immune responses triggered by multiple SCOOP suggesting t...

conclusions tlr8 rs3764880 and tlr9 rs148805533 polymorphisms may not be risk factors for susceptibility to tuberculosis in a sample of iranian population. larger studies are required to validate our findings. results the allelic and genotypic frequencies of the tlr8 rs3764880 did not differ significantly between ptb and the controls. no significant difference was found between the groups regar...

Aging, as a major risk factor of memory deficiency, affects neural signaling pathways in hippocampus. In particular, age-dependent androgens deficiency causes cognitive impairments. Several enzymes like protein kinase C (PKC) are involved in memory deficiency. Indeed, PKC regulatory process mediates α-secretase activation to cleave APP in β-amyloid cascade and tau proteins phosphorylation mecha...

conclusions this study suggests that decrease in levels of tlr3 and tlr7 expression is a mechanism that may enable hcv to evade the host innate immune response. results in both groups, we had 13 males and 12 females with a mean age of 48.7 ± 16. tlr3 (6.23 ± 0.91 vs. 3.89 ± 0.85, p < 0.001) and tlr7 (1.48 ± 0.82 vs-1.33 ± 1.18, p < 0.001) expressions were significantly lower in patients with ch...

Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a process that certain types of synaptic stimulation lead to a long-lasting enhancement in the strength of synaptic transmission. Studies in recent years indicate the importance of molecular pathways in the development of memory and learning. Tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB) is a member of the neurotrophin receptor tyrosine kinase family, that its ligand is b...

background :according to numerous studies, fms-like tyrosine kinase 3, internal tandem duplication, and the d835 mutation are associated with a poor prognostic clinical outcome in acute myeloid leukemia patients. detection of the fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 mutation in patients who present with normal karyotype acute myeloid leukemia helps in both the understanding of the disease and the treatme...

introduction: the hippocampus (hip), the primary brain structure related to learning and memory, receives sparse but comprehensive dopamine innervations and contains dopamine d1/d2-like receptors. it is demonstrated that dopamine receptors in dentate gyrus (dg) region of hip have a remarkable function in spatial reward processing. much less is known about the involvement of hip and its d1/d2 do...
