There may exist a coinhibitory and costimulatory molecules-based immuno-regulating wet among MDSCs, which regulated the activity and expression of arginase I in mice bearing ovarian 18D carcinoma and showed reduced suppressive potential of PD-1+CTLA-4+MDSCs.
Cell Surface-Binding Motifs of L2 That Facilitate Papillomavirus Infection

Mutation of L2 residues 18 and 19 or 21 and 22 significantly reduces both the ability of the HPV16 L2 13-31-GFP fusion protein to bind to SiHa cells and the infectivity of HPV16 pseudovirions.

The functionalized SWNTs could facilitate the coupling of siRNAs that specifically target murine TERT expression to form the mTERT siRNA:SWNT+ complex, and may represent a new class of molecular transporters applicable for siRNA therapeutics.
Interaction of tSNARE Syntaxin 18 with the Papillomavirus Minor Capsid Protein Mediates Infection
- I. Bossis, R. Roden, P. Meneses

Genetic studies identified a highly conserved L2 domain, DKILK, comprising residues 40 to 44 that mediated BPV1 trafficking through the ER during infection via an interaction with the tSNARE syntaxin 18.
Papillomavirus-Like Particles Stimulate Murine Bone Marrow-Derived Dendritic Cells To Produce Alpha Interferon and Th1 Immune Responses via MyD88
- Rongcun Yang, F. Murillo, R. Roden
- BiologyJournal of Virology
- 15 October 2004
Analysis of transcriptional responses of murine BMDCs by microarray suggested that alpha/beta interferon (IFN-α/β) transcripts and numerous proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines are up regulated in response to HPV16 VLPs, and implicates TLR recognition as central to immune recognition of HPV16 L1 VLLP.
miR‐223 suppresses differentiation of tumor‐induced CD11b+Gr1+myeloid‐derived suppressor cells from bone marrow cells
- Qiaofei Liu, Miaomiao Zhang, Rongcun Yang
- BiologyInternational Journal of Cancer
- 1 December 2011
Interestingly, miR‐223 remarkably inhibits differentiation of BMCs into CD11b+Gr1+MDSCs in the presence of tumor‐associated factors by targeting myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C) and its targeting molecule MEF1C increases the number of MDSCs.
