It is known that an essential first step is for the virus to lock on to a molecule on the cell surface called a receptor.
In the first video, a layer of cystic-fibrosis lung cells had uncoördinated, slowly moving cilia that were unable to move mucus off the cell surface.
"This is an elegant way to treat cancer, because we're not targeting something on the cell surface, but something in the blood supply," Dr. Desaidd-Hellman said.
First, it latches onto a receptor on the cell surface.
(B) FACS analysis of BCRP expression on the cell surface.
Alterations of the cell surface lead to lysosomal fragility [76].
to the cell surface (Jose 2006; Jose et al. 2012).
E protein does not traffic to the cell surface.
There is formation of 'pits' on the cell surface, and there is accumulation of the nanoparticles on the cell surface[3].
Using this mechanism, a light-sensitive molecule is inserted into the cell surface of a neuron (usually through a virus vector).
It then travels down the respiratory tract and binds to epithelial cells lining the lung airways via specific molecules on the cell surface.
