A painful TR(i)P to lysosomes
... The study by Shang et al. (2016) raises the question of whether and how TRPA1 channels might be differentially regulated in the plasma membrane versus lysosomes. AITC is a potent agonist and may override the endogenous inhibitory mechanisms. Plasma membrane TRPA1 is modulated by a variety of cellula ...

Amniotic membrane modulates innate immune response inhibiting
... Innate immunity is the first line of defense against corneal infection. In response to virus infections, viral components such as RNA and DNA are recognized by Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and retinoic acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs) (Philpott et al., 2001; Kawai and Akira, 2009).
