Molecular Imaging of PD-1 Unveils Unknown Characteristics of PD-1 Itself by Visualizing “PD-1 Microclusters”
Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) is one of the most famous coinhibitory receptors that are expressed on effector T cells to regulate their function. The PD-1 ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, are expressed by various ce...

Molecular Cloning of a New Aquaporin Superfamily in Mammals
Currently, aquaporins (AQPs) are divided into two subfamilies: AQP1 group and AQP3 group. AQP1 group is water-selective AQP and has 6 members in mammals: AQPO, AQP1, AQP2, AQP4, AQP5, AQP6. They share similar ...
