NOD2 and TLR2 Signal via TBK1 and PI31 to Direct Cross-Presentation and CD8 T Cell Responses
The objective of this study was to explore the role of NOD2 and TLR2 in cross-presentation in human dendritic cells undertaking an unbiased screen. We have used a quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) followed by a computational analysis to identify the proteins as differentially abundant in response to NOD2 and TLR2 sensing. Validation of the phosphoproteomic analysis was performed by the detection of proteins in phosphoenriched lysates and detected by western blot. Techniques for the modulation of gene expression (shRNA and siRNA) were used to confirm the resu...

The action mechanism of lncRNA-HOTAIR on the drug resistance of non-small cell lung cancer by regulating Wnt signaling pathway.
Authors: Guo F, Cao Z, Guo H, Li S Abstract The action mechanism of long non-coding ribonucleic acid-homeobox transcript antisense ribonucleic acid (lncRNA-HOTAIR) in the regulation of the Wnt signaling pathway on the drug resistance of non-small cell lung cancer was investigated. Forty eight patients with non-small cell lung cancer, who were treated with cisplatin (DDP) as neoadjuvant chemotherapy, were selected from the specimen bank of the Department of Pathology of Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the messenger RNA (mRNA) level of...
