Abstract: Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) suppresses macrophage effector mechanisms; however, little is known about the function of PGD2 in infected alveolar macrophages (AMs). Using serum-opsonized Histoplasma capsulatum (Ops-H. capsulatum) in vitro, we demonstrated that AMs produced PGE2… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1011828
Abstract: The T-type voltage-gated calcium channel CaV3.3 is expressed in GABAergic neurons of the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN), where its pacemaking activity controls sleep spindle rhythmogenesis during the non-rapid eye movement (NREM) phase of natural sleep.… read more here.

DOI: 10.7567/apex.10.025104
Abstract: Metal atoms at graphene edges are important because they can modify the structure and properties of graphene; however, there are very few reports on their direct observation. We performed electron microscopy to investigate the stability… read more here.
