Production of monoclonal antibodies to the rat insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) receptor.

abstract：:Probiotics exhibit beneficial functions for host homeostasis maintenance. We herein investigated the mechanism by which Lactobacillus brevis-derived poly P exhibited a beneficial function. Immunostaining indicated that poly P was captured in the plasma membrane via integrin β1 in Caco2/bbe cells. The uptake of poly P ...
