Possible Role of Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide Antibody (Anti-CCP Ab) in Rheumatic Diseases
Diyala Journal of Medicine, 2019 Background: Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP) antibodies are highly specific for RA, but are not detectable in all RA patients, in addition their usefulness to identify rheumatic arthritis (RA) from other rheumatic diseases presenting with ...

Incidence of P200 pemphigoid: A nationwide study
Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.The anti‐LAMB4 cell‐based immunoassay is a new serological technique that is far superior to dermal immunoblotting for detecting autoantibodies directed against the P200 protein. This method allows a re‐evaluation of the incidence of P200 pemphigoid, which appears to be considerably more frequent than epidermolysis bullosa acquisita.

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

The role of clathrin in post‐Golgi secretion in plant cells
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Morphology of Arabidopsis thaliana XVE»amiCHC seedlings. Summary Within the plant endomembrane system, the vesicle coat protein clathrin localizes to the plasma membrane (PM) and the trans‐Golgi Network/early endosome (TGN/EE). While the role of clathrin in endocytosis at the PM is well established, its function at TGN/EE, presumably in late secretion (
