Detection of Diagnostic Antibodies in Immune‐Mediated Diseases: A Focus on Antigens and Technologies
This review explores autoantibody detection in immune‐mediated diseases, highlighting autoantigens including post‐translational modifications. We compared enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay and indirect immunofluorescence with automated chemiluminescence platforms.

Background CLCA is a family of metalloproteases that regulate Ca2+-activated Cl− fluxes in epithelial tissues. In HEK293 cells, CLCA1 promotes membrane expression of an endogenous Anoctamin 1 (ANO1, also termed TMEM16A)-dependent Ca2+-activated Cl ...

Estrogen increases ENaC activity via PKCδ signaling in renal cortical collecting duct cells. [PDF]
The most active estrogen, 17β-estradiol (E2), has previously been shown to stimulate a female sex-specific antisecretory response in the intestine. This effect is thought to contribute to the increase in whole body extracellular fluid (ECF) volume which ...

ABSTRACT Background The Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) and human herpesvirus 6 (HHV‐6) are frequently linked to neuropsychiatric illnesses such as multiple sclerosis, depression, and chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis. These viruses may induce autoimmune reactions by molecular mimicry, leading to damage to self‐epitopes in the central nervous

Neuroinflammation as a result of non‐neurotropic herpesvirus infection
Atypical memory B cells (ABCs) might stimulate autoreactive T cells to cause neuroinflammation and CNS myeloid cell activation during MS. Abstract The non‐neurotropic Epstein Barr virus (EBV) has been suggested to initiate the prodromal phase of multiple sclerosis (MS), often years before the first clinical symptoms. This review discusses mechanisms by

TMEM16A-encoded anoctamin 1 inhibition contributes to chrysin-induced coronary relaxation
Chrysin, a natural flavonoid available in honey, propolis and medicinal plants, has been shown to be vasorelaxant in some vascular beds. Proper intake of an alimental vasodilator as a food additive may be a promising strategy for prevention and treatment of coronary spasmodic disorders.TMEM16A-encoded anoctamin 1 (ANO1), a Ca2+ activated Cl- channel ...

The Arabidopsis Synaptotagmin1 is enriched in endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane contact sites and confers cellular resistance to mechanical stresses [PDF]
Eukaryotic endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-plasma membrane (PM) contact sites are evolutionarily conserved microdomains that have important roles in specialized metabolic functions such as ER-PM communication, lipid homeostasis, and Ca2+ influx.

Why Is MS a More Frequent Complication of EBV Infection in Females?
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a T helper (Th) cell‐mediated disease that targets central nervous system (CNS) white matter. This disease affects three times more females than males. For many years, the etiology of MS was not well understood and the exact nature of the autoimmune reaction was speculative.

Anoctamin 1 dysregulation alters bronchial epithelial repair in cystic fibrosis
Cystic fibrosis (CF) airway epithelium is constantly subjected to injury events due to chronic infection and inflammation. Moreover, abnormalities in CF airway epithelium repair have been described and contribute to the lung function decline seen in CF patients. In the last past years, it has been proposed that anoctamin 1 (ANO1), a Ca(2+)-activated Cl(
