Published in 2018 at "European Journal of Pharmacology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2018.03.045

Abstract: &NA; NLRC5, the largest member of the Nucleotide‐binding domain and leucine‐rich repeat (NLR) protein family, is recently proven to be a critical modulator in fibrogenesis. However, the role of NLRC5 in renal fibrosis remains unknown.… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Experimental Eye Research"

DOI: 10.1016/j.exer.2019.01.016

Abstract: ABSTRACT The deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM)—which is mainly composed of type I collagen—in anterior subcapsular cataracts (ASCs) during epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) of lens epithelial cells (LECs) decreases visual function. Transforming growth factor (TGF)‐&bgr; is… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Immunity"

DOI: 10.1016/j.immuni.2018.03.025

Abstract: SUMMARY It is unclear how quiescence is enforced in naive T cells, but activation by foreign antigens and self‐antigens is allowed, despite the presence of inhibitory signals. We showed that active transforming growth factor &bgr;… read more here.
