DOI: 10.1007/s00430-017-0516-z
Abstract: Autoantibodies against inosine-5′-monophosphate-dehydrogenase-2 (IMPDH2; “rods and rings” pattern) develop in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients under treatment with peg-interferon (IFN) and ribavirin (RBV), an inhibitor of IMPDH2. We investigated the influence of the alternative therapy… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/15384101.2019.1637201
Abstract: ABSTRACT Clathrin regulates mitotic progression, in addition to membrane trafficking. However, the detailed regulatory mechanisms of clathrin during mitosis remain elusive. Here, we demonstrate novel regulation of clathrin during mitotic phase of the cell cycle.… read more here.
