Identification of critical residues of linear B cell epitope on Goodpasture autoantigen. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:The autoantigen of anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease has been identified as the non-collagenous domain 1 of α3 chain of type IV collagen, α3(IV)NC1. Our previous study revealed a peptide on α3(IV)NC1 as a major linear epitope for

IgG anti-apolipoprotein A-1 antibodies in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus are associated with disease activity and corticosteroid therapy: an observational study. [PDF]
IgG anti-apolipoprotein A-1 (IgG anti-apoA-1) antibodies are present in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and may link inflammatory disease activity and the increased risk of developing atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in ...

Anti-glomerular Basement Membrane Disease with Atypical Associations
Anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease is a systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by circulating immunoglobulin (Ig) G antibodies to carboxy-terminal, noncollagenous 1 domain of type IV collagen of GBM.

An Unusual Case of Anti-GBM Antibody Elevation in HIV-Associated Nephropathy [PDF]
Introduction.The most commonly seen glomerular disease in HIV infected patients is HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN); however, a multitude of other nephropathies can occur in HIV infection with an almost equal cumulative frequency. We report an unusual case of a patient with clinical and histological evidence of HIVAN in which the diagnosis was ...

Granular Immunofluorescence deposition of IgG in anti-GBM antibody disease
Our patient was a 75 year old male, who presented with worsening dysphagia for solids and liquids and increasing malaise. His past medical history was significant for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD).

Anti-glomerular basement membrane glomerulonephritis in an HIV positive patient: case report
We report on a case of a patient with HIV infection, diagnosed 18 months prior to the development of an anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis; this is probably the first report of such an association.

The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Plasma from patients with anti-glomerular basement membrane disease could recognize microbial peptides. [PDF]
Infection has long been suspected as a trigger of autoimmune diseases, and molecular mimicry mechanism was hypothesized in this study. Microbe originated peptides were searched from the Uniprot database based on a previous defined critical amino acid ...
