Microvesicles and exosomes for intracardiac communication

Exosomes are released from cells via two mechanisms; constitutive or inducible, depending on the cell type of origin.7 The constitutive secretion pathways are mediated by specific RAB GTPases,25,32 hetrotrimeric G-protein, and protein kinase D,33 while inducible secretion is regulated by various cel ...

Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs) and Their Ligands

Adaptive immunity is characterized by specificity and develops by clonal selection from a vast repertoire of lymphocytes bearing antigen-specific receptors that are generated by gene rearrangement. This mechanism ...
