DOI: 10.1016/j.jaut.2021.102683
Abstract: The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays a major role in COVID-19. Severity of several inflammation-related diseases has been associated with autoantibodies against RAS, particularly agonistic autoantibodies for angiotensin type-1 receptors (AA-AT1) and autoantibodies against ACE2 (AA-ACE2).… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acschembio.5c00490
Abstract: Quorum sensing (QS) allows bacteria to respond to changes in cell density and participate in collective behaviors. Interfering with QS could provide a strategy to block pathogenicity, reduce biofouling, and support biotechnology. Many common Gram-negative… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2017.00117
Abstract: Otolithic afferents with regular resting discharge respond to gravity or low-frequency linear accelerations, and we term these the static or sustained otolithic system. However, in the otolithic sense organs, there is anatomical differentiation across the… read more here.
