Influence of platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR) on Brucella abortus i…
Brucella abortus is an intracellular pathogen which can infect and persist in host cells through multiple interactions. Above all, its interaction to host cell receptor is important to understand the pathogenic mechanisms of B. abortus. Accordingly, we demonstrated that platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR) affects host cell response against B. abortus infection

The renin–angiotensin system (RAS) is known to be activated systemically and in local organs in cardiovascular disease, metabolic disease and other chronic diseases, as well as with age. This activation is strongly associated with organ damage. Many studies have reported the role of RAS activation in cardiovascular disease, and angiotensin II (Ang II) in particular has been identified as a…
