The β2-integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) plays a crucial role within the immune system. It regulates the interaction between T cells and antigen-presenting cells and facilitates T-cell adhesion to the endothelium, a process that is important for lymphocyte extravasation and homing. Signals mediated via the T-cell receptor and the chemokine receptor CCR7 activate LFA-1 th...

The T cell receptor (TCR) triggers the assembly of "SLP-76 microclusters," which mediate signals required for T cell activation. In addition to regulating integrin activation, we show that Src kinase-associated phosphoprotein of 55 kD (SKAP55) is required for microcluster persistence and movement, junctional stabilization, and integrin-independent adhesion via the TCR. These functions require t...

Tumor inflammation, the recruitment of myeloid lineage cells into the tumor microenvironment, promotes angiogenesis, immunosuppression and metastasis. CD11b+Gr1lo monocytic lineage cells and CD11b+Gr1hi granulocytic lineage cells are recruited from the circulation by tumor-derived chemoattractants, which stimulate PI3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ)-mediated integrin α4 activation and extravasation. We show h...

At the end of 2021 to early 2022 several areas in Banjar Regency were flooded. This incident had a major impact on surrounding area and became national concern. One causes disaster was high-intensity rainfall which caused water Riam Kiwa River overflow. HEC-HMS software used simulate designed flood discharge. research aims model magnitude discharge with return periods 5, 25, 50, 100 years. Due ...
