Autophagy is redundant for the host defense against systemic Candida albicans infections
Autophagy has been demonstrated to play an important role in the immunity against intracellular pathogens, but very little is known about its role in the host defense against fungal pathogens such as Candida albi...

Effect of amino acid substitutions in the human IFN-γR2 on IFN-γ responsiveness
Patients with interferon-γ receptor (IFN-γR) null mutations have severe infections with poorly pathogenic Mycobacteria. The IFN-γR complex involves two IFN-γR1 and two IFN-γR2 chains, in which several amino acid ...

Exclusion of PPEF as the gene causing X-linked juvenile retinoschisis
X-linked juvenile retinoschisis (RS) is a progressive vitreoretinal degeneration localised in Xp22.1-p22.2. A human homologue of the retinal degeneration gene C (rdgC), a gene that in Drosophila melanogaster pre...

Molecular genetic analysis of two families with keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans: refinement of gene localization and evidence for genetic heterogeneity
X-linked keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans (KFSD) is a rare disorder affecting both skin and eyes. In the two extended KFSD families analysed to date, the gene was mapped to Xp22.13–p22.2. By analyzin...
