Quantification of C-type lectin receptors signal transduction

open access: yes, 2021
Ubiquitous glycans facilitate a plethora of important interactions namely cancer-host, host-pathogen, host-self interactions. Interaction with theses carbohydrates is enabled by lectins and the effects of these interactions can range from redundant to essential.

Higher complement C4 gene copy number constitutes a shared genetic risk factor for giant cell arteritis and IgA vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

Paired C-type lectin receptors mediate specific recognition of divergent oomycete pathogens in C. elegans

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Innate immune responses can be triggered upon detection of pathogen- or damage-associated molecular patterns by host receptors that are often present on the surface of immune cells.

Reprogramming tumor immune microenvironment by ultrasound‐responsive nanoplatforms for enhanced cancer immunotherapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Ultrasound‐responsive nanoplatforms reprogram the tumor immune microenvironment by targeting tumor cells, immune cells, and non‐immune stromal cells to enhance the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. Abstract Cancer immunotherapy represents a significant advancement in cancer treatment by enhancing the specific recognition and elimination of cancer cells.

Next Generation Hosts for Protein Recognition, Assembly and More

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The original design of synthetic receptors for proteins was based on macrocycles with a hydrophobic core and a polar/charged periphery. This design, geared towards protein recognition, facilitates receptor self‐assembly. Macrocycle oligomerization, in turn, contributes to protein assembly as evidenced in many cocrystal structures.

Bioresponsive pseudoGlucosinolates (psGSLs) Release Isothiocyanates (ITCs) in the Presence of Nitroreductases

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This work introduces the concept of pseudoglucosinolates (psGSLs) and reports the synthesis and evaluation of nitroreductase‐responsive psGSLs. These compounds represent a complementary prodrug strategy to natural glucosinolates (GSLs) for the controlled release of isothiocyanates (ITCs), enabling bio‐responsive protein labeling, as demonstrated in ...

RORγt‐APCs: The New Masters of Oral Tolerance

open access: yesBarrier Immunity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oral tolerance is defined by the hypo‐responsiveness of our body to fed antigens, and its failure can lead to immune‐mediated diseases, such as allergy, chronic inflammation and autoimmune diseases. Decades of research have demonstrated that antigen‐presenting cells (APCs) promote oral tolerance by inducing regulatory T cells (Tregs) and/or ...
