Innate immunity relies on the perception of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) located on the host cell's surface. Many plant PRRs are kinases. Here, we report that the Arabidopsis receptor kinase EF-TU RECEPTOR (EFR), which perceives the elf18 peptide derived from bacterial elongation factor Tu, is activated upon ligand binding by phosphorylation on its tyrosine residues. Phosphorylation of a single tyrosine residue, Y836, is required for activation of EFR and downstream immunity to the phytopathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae. A tyrosine phosphatase, HopAO1, secreted by P. syringae, reduces EFR phosphorylation and prevents subsequent immune responses. Thus, host and pathogen compete to take control of PRR tyrosine phosphorylation used to initiate antibacterial immunity.

Src homology-2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 1 (SHP-1) is a member of protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family, and serves as a crucial negative regulator of various oncogenic signaling pathways. The development of SHP-1 agonists has garnered extensive research attention and is considered as a promising strategy for treating tumors. In this review, we comprehensively analyze the advancements of SHP-1 agonists, focusing on their structures and biological activities.

Klotho has been importantly linked to atherosclerosis, but little is known about its specific role. This study investigates the mechanism by which Klotho enhances the stability of atherosclerotic plaques in chronic kidney disease. apoE-/- knockout mice and C57BL/6 mice underwent 5/6 nephrectomy and then klotho-NC and klotho-mimic groups were set up to be fed a high-fat chow diet and a dummy group was created to be fed a normal chow diet.

Children with T-ALL/LBL require prompt diagnosis and treatment. Flow cytometric analysis of T-lineage and immaturity markers usually leads to a straightforward diagnosis. However, rare cases of T-ALL expressing bright CD45 and lacking expression of immature markers can be a diagnostic conundrum and difficult to differentiate from mature T-cell lymphomas lacking surface CD3 expression or aberrantly expressing immature markers, which affects treatment decisions and prognosis.
