molecular mechanism

Postdoctoral research associate Samuel Eastman (left), 2024 Princeton graduate Kaeli Ficco (right), and their colleagues uncovered a mechanism by which soil bacteria can modulate plant immunity.

Kaempferol produces an anti-inflammatory effect that combats the immune response seen in food allergies by increasing Raldh2 expression in intestinal dendritic cells in a concentration-dependent manner, thus accelerating regulatory T-cell development.

Researchers investigated the function of PQBP3, a protein that was previously linked to certain neurodegenerative diseases, and unveiled its role in maintaining the integrity of the nuclear membrane. In senescent (aged) cells, PQBP3 concentration is decreased thereby promoting Lamin B1 degradation, and PQBP3 leaks from its typical place in the nucleolus to the cytosol, which in turn causes the nuclear membrane to get destabilized.
