MS4A4A Regulates Arginase 1 Induction during Macrophage Polarization and Lung Inflammation in Mice.

MS4A4A regulates the expression of arginase 1 in macrophages under IL4 stimulation. Also, MS4A4A regulates eosinophil infiltration during lung allergic inflammation induced by intranasal administration of house dust mite.

Three novel structural phenomena in the cellular ontogeny of Oenococcus oeni from northern China.

Stress resistance and growth are important aspects to consider when engineering Oenococcus oeni strains for winemaking. We identified 3 previously unreported structural phenomena in the cell ontogeny of O. oeni sampled in northern China.

Acidic phospholipids govern the enhanced activation of IgG-B cell receptor.

B cells that express the isotype-switched IgG-B cell receptor (IgG-BCR) are one of the driving forces for antibody memory. To allow for a rapid memory IgG antibody response, IgG-BCR evolved into a highly effective signalling machine. Here, we report that the positively charged cytoplasmic domain of mIgG (mIgG-tail) specifically interacts with negatively charged acidic phospholipids.
