The new face of the old molecules: crustin Pm4 and transglutaminase type I serving as rnps down-regulate astakine-mediated hematopoiesis.

Astakine is an important cytokine that is involved in crustacean hematopoiesis. Interestingly, the protein levels of astakine increased dramatically in plasma of LPS-injected shrimp while mRNA levels remained unchanged. Here, we investigated the involvement of astakine 3'-untranslated region (U...
