Structurally Robust and Functionally Highly Versatile—C-Type Lectin (-Related) Proteins in Snake Venoms

open access: yesToxins, 2019
Snake venoms contain an astounding variety of different proteins. Among them are numerous C-type lectin family members, which are grouped into classical Ca2+- and sugar-binding lectins and the non-sugar-binding snake venom C-type lectin-related proteins (

Reversing Macrophage Immunometabolic Dysfunction in Prolonged Infections Via a Glutaminolysis‐Fueled Restoration‐Based Hierarchically Selective Therapeutic System

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A hierarchically selective immunotherapeutic nanoplatform, mGls@HEV‐MTP, selectively restores macrophage immunocompetence through GLS1‐mediated restoration of glutaminolysis‐fueled anaplerosis. Concurrently, it renders Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) more readily recognizable to the metabolically reprogrammed macrophages, thereby facilitating ...

Molecular Bases and Genetic Design of Rice Disease Resistance for Optimized Yield and Sustainable Agriculture

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study integrates rice immune perception, signal transduction, and resistance output into a multi‐omics framework. By combining high‐throughput sequencing, phenomics, and AI‐assisted design with marker‐assisted selection, gene editing, and rapid domestication, we aim to accelerate the precise breeding of disease‐resistant rice varieties by ...

Morphophysiological dynamics of the proximal post‐testicular ducts in Crotalus durissus Linnaeus, 1758 (Squamata: Viperidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The organization and function of reptilian excurrent ducts remain poorly characterized, particularly in Neotropical snakes. We provide the first integrative morphological, histochemical, immunohistochemical, and ultrastructural analysis of the proximal post‐testicular ducts of Crotalus durissus across reproductive stages.

Fasting and Refeeding Mediated Phospholipid Remodeling Plays an Important Role in Improving Meat Quality of Aged Laying Hens

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored fasting‐induced physiological remodeling effects on meat quality in aged laying hens. Fasting for 15 days (F15) significantly reduced abdominal fat, intermuscular fat width, subcutaneous fat thickness, and liver index versus pre‐fasting (F0) (p < 0.05), which recovered post‐refeeding.

Modulation of Animal Gut Health by Milk Oligosaccharide

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the composition and structural characteristics of MOs across different mammalian species, and elucidates their roles and mechanisms in maintaining intestinal homeostasis by regulating gut microbiome and enhancing intestinal chemical, physical and immune barriers.

Identifying Systemic Lupus Erythematosus From Serum Proteomic Profiles Using Machine Learning and Genetic Risk Stratification

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Proteome‐wide risk models for lupus remain underexplored. We developed classification models to identify lupus from serum proteomic profiles. Methods Patients with lupus and individuals with other autoimmune diseases in the UK Biobank were included.

A STRATEGY FOR DIRECT DELIVERY OF ANTIGENIC CONSTRUCTS TO DENDRITIC CELL RECEPTORS

open access: yesHematology, Transfusion and Cell Therapy
Objective: C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) expressed by DC are considered attractive targets for effective targeting of antigen to antigen-presenting cells, since the participation of CLRs can additionally stimulate antigen presentation and, accordingly ...

Higher Complement C4 Gene Copy Number Constitutes a Shared Genetic Risk Factor for Giant Cell Arteritis and IgA Vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
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 ...

The Possible Pathophysiological Role of Pancreatic Stone Protein in Sepsis and Its Potential Therapeutic Implication

open access: yesBiomedicines
According to the current understanding of the pathophysiology of sepsis, key host dysregulated responses leading to organ failure are mediated by innate immunity, through interactions between pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damaged ...
