Functional activity of peptide ion channels in tethered bilayer lipid membranes: Review
Abstract Ion transport across biomembranes plays a major role in living cells. This fundamental function is normally carried out by molecules with both a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic side (amphiphilic molecules), which aggregate within the membrane forming a hydrophilic pore (the ion channel) permitting the selective translocation of permeant ions ...

Extrahepatic Manifestations and Autoantibodies in Patients with Hepatitis C Virus Infection
Patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection frequently have many extrahepatic manifestations, as persistent HCV infection often triggers lymphoproliferative disorders and metabolic abnormalities.

To review recent advances in our understanding of autoantibodies associated with dermatomyositis and the autoimmune necrotizing myopathies.Autoantibodies preferentially associated with dermatomyositis include those recognizing Mi-2, MDA5, TIF1γ, and NXP-2. Each of these is associated with a distinct clinical phenotype.

A quantitative CTC RNA assay is developed by incorporating multi‐antibody‐based CTC isolation and specific mRNA quantification using RT‐ddPCR. The NSCLC CTC ScoreD demonstrates high accuracy for early‐stage NSCLC detection, significantly outperforming serum CEA. NSCLC CTC ScoreM exhibits a more accurate early‐warning of responses to different therapies

The Origins, Specificity, and Potential Biological Relevance of Human Anti-IgG Hinge Autoantibodies
Human anti-IgG hinge (HAH) autoantibodies constitute a class of immunoglobulins that recognize cryptic epitopes in the hinge region of antibodies exposed after proteolytic cleavage, but do not bind to the intact IgG counterpart.

This study develops lipid nanoparticle‐encapsulated mRNA‐encoding antibodies (mRNab‐LNPs) targeting CD19, demonstrating robust anti‐CD19 antibody production in vivo. Intramuscular injection of mRNab‐LNPs reduces CD19+ B and plasma cells in lupus and rheumatoid arthritis mice, significantly alleviating histopathological changes and tissue injuries of ...

A novel platform for isotype-specific testing of autoantibodies.
The objective of this study was to test if a novel platform could be used for isotype-specific autoantibody testing in humans. Further, we evaluated if testing with this novel platform enables earlier detection of insulin autoantibodies in individuals ...

A multi-etiology model of systemic degeneration in schizophrenia [PDF]
We discuss the possibility of multiple underlying etiologies of the condition currently labeled as schizophrenia. We support this hypothesis with a theoretical model of the prefrontal-limbic system. We show how the dynamical behavior of this model depends on an entire set of physiological parameters, representing synaptic strengths, vulnerability to ...

The six autoantibodies (Sui1, p62, RalA, p53, NY‐ESO‐1 and c‐myc) positive group had poor prognosis compared to autoantibody negative group. A panel of autoantibodies against a tumor associated antigen in esophageal cancer patients had an additive effect with SCC‐Ag to detect esophageal SCC even in early stage.
