The distinctive and visually striking wooden masks associated with the Bwa culture in Burkina Faso, West Africa, are carved from a soft wood into different shapes and display various geometrical patterns and symbols according to the purpose. One of their characteristic features is the use of the col...
Kinesins are a superfamily of molecular motors that undertake ATP-dependent microtubule-based movement or regulate microtubule dynamics. Plasmodium species, which cause malaria and kill hundreds of thousands annually, encode ~9 kinesins in their genomes. Of these, two – kinesin-8B and kinesin-8X - a...
Dendritic cells (DCs) direct CD4+ T cell differentiation into distinct T helper (Th) subsets that are vital for protection against diverse types of infection. However, the mechanisms employed by DCs to initiate Th2 responses, which are important for immunity to helminth infection as well as being a...

The ets transcription factor ELF5 specifies the differentiation of mammary progenitor cells to establish the milk-secreting lineage. ER- and poor prognosis basal breast cancers arise from this progenitor cell and these cancers express high levels of Elf5. Knockdown of ELF5 expression in basal breast...
