Comparison of Five Assays for the Detection of Anti-dsDNA Antibodies and Their Correlation with Complement Consumption

Diagnostics
Background: Anti-dsDNA is an important biomarker for the diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Although several assays for anti-dsDNA antibody detection are routinely used, standardization remains limited, and ...

Emerging insights into CC and CXC chemokines and their receptors in Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The dual roles of CC and CXC chemokines in distinguishing active, latent, and subclinical tuberculosis were reviewed, along with an evaluation of their potential as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets to advance precision medicine in tuberculosis management. The graphical abstract was generated with AI assistance (Gemini 3.0).

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

The Autoimmune Tautology: From Polyautoimmunity and Familial Autoimmunity to the Autoimmune Genes [PDF]

Autoimmune Diseases, 2012
Las enfermedades autoinmunes (EA) son afecciones crónicas iniciadas por la pérdida de tolerancia inmunológica a los autoantígenos y representan un grupo heterogéneo de trastornos que afectan a órganos diana específicos o a múltiples sistemas de órganos [1].

Loss of AMBRA1 activates MAPK and angiogenesis signaling pathways in melanoma cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Loss of AMBRA1 in melanoma cells activates multiple oncogenic pathways associated with tumor progression. Transcriptomic and protein network analyses revealed that AMBRA1 depletion enhances MAPK/ERK signaling, angiogenesis, TGF‐β/EMT signaling, and Wnt/axon guidance pathways.

Pro‐inflammatory dopamine‐2 receptor‐specific T cells in paediatric movement and psychiatric disorders

Clinical & Translational Immunology, 2020
Objectives A dysregulated inflammatory response against the dopamine‐2 receptor (D2R) has been implicated in movement and psychiatric disorders. D2R antibodies were previously reported in a subset of these patients; however, the role of T cells in these ...

The Emerging Jamboree of Transformative Therapies for Autoimmune Diseases

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
Standard treatments for autoimmune and autoinflammatory disorders rely mainly on immunosuppression. These are predominantly symptomatic remedies that do not affect the root cause of the disease and are associated with multiple side effects ...

Landscape of stimulation-responsive chromatin across diverse human immune cells. [PDF]

, 2019
A hallmark of the immune system is the interplay among specialized cell types transitioning between resting and stimulated states. The gene regulatory landscape of this dynamic system has not been fully characterized in human cells.
