Sea anemone–anemonefish symbiosis: Behavior and mucous protein profiling

Hai‐Thanh T. Nguyen, Min Zhao, Tianfang Wang, Binh T. Dang, more

Journal of Fish Biology > 105 > 2 > 603 - 618

Fish species of the genus Amphiprion (Perciformes: Pomacentridae) seek protection from predators among the tentacles of sea anemones as their natural habitat, where they live essentially unharmed from stinging by the host's nematocysts. The skin mucus of these anemonefish has been suggested as a protective mechanism that prevents the discharge of the nematocysts upon contact. Whereas some anemonefish...

Blocking IL-10 signalling at the time of immunization does not increase unwanted side effects in mice

Guoying Ni, Zaowen Liao, Shu Chen, Tianfang Wang, more

BMC Immunology > 2017 > 18 > 1 > 1-11

Background Cancer therapeutic vaccine induced cytotoxic T cell (CTL) responses are pivotal for the killing of tumour cells. Blocking interleukin 10 (IL-10) signalling at the time of immunization increases vaccine induced CTL responses and improves prevention of tumour growth in animal models compared to immunization without an IL-10 signalling blockade. Therefore, this immunization strategy may have...
