Delving into Vertebrate Serpins for Understanding their Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The superfamily of serine proteinase inhibitors (serpins) is involved in an array of fundamental biological processes such as blood coagulation, cell differentiation, cell migration, complement activation, embryo implantation, fibrinolysis, angiogenesis,

Naked cuticle is essential for Drosophila wing development beyond Wingless signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Naked cuticle (Nkd), a Wnt signaling inhibitor, assumes extensive roles in Drosophila wing development. Overexpressing Nkd causes smaller, crumpled wings, while also perturbing multiple signaling pathways and developmental genes. A specific region (R1S) is critical for Nkd's function as a signaling integrator, offering new insights for studying its ...

The international WAO/EAACI guideline for the management of hereditary angioedema – the 2017 revision and update [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) is a rare and disabling disease. Early diagnosis and appropriate therapy are essential. This update and revision of the global guideline for HAE provides up-to-date consensus recommendations for the management of HAE.

HIV‐1 establishes immediate latency in T cells expressing the viral Nef protein

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Nef is a viral protein often omitted from HIV‐1 reporter viruses. Consequently, its role in viral latency is unclear. We developed three novel dual reporter HIV‐1 derivatives that express Nef and allow for detection of latent and productive infection. Using these reporters, we show that Nef does not affect the establishment of immediate viral latency ...

Regulation of C1 Inhibitor Synthesis

open access: yesImmunobiology, 1998
The primary biologic roles of C1 inhibitor (C1-INH) are the regulation of activation of the classical complement pathway and of the contact system of kinin formation. Heterozygosity for deficiency or dysfunction of C1-INH results in hereditary angioedema (HAE).

Classification, diagnosis, and approach to treatment for angioedema: Consensus report from the Hereditary Angioedema International Working Group [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Angioedema is defined as localized and self-limiting edema of the subcutaneous and submucosal tissue, due to a temporary increase in vascular permeability caused by the release of vasoactive mediator(s). When angioedema recurs without significant wheals,

Atomic Size Misfit for Electrocatalytic Small Molecule Activation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores the application and mechanisms of atomic size misfit in catalysis for small molecule activation, focusing on how structural defects and electronic properties can effectively lower the energy barriers of chemical bonds in molecules like H2O, CO2, and N2.

C1-inhibitor protects against brain ischemia–reperfusion injury via inhibition of cell recruitment and inflammation

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2005
Previous studies demonstrated that C1-inhibitor (C1-INH), a complement and contact-kinin systems inhibitor, is neuroprotective in cerebral ischemia.

C1-Inhibitor and Transplantation

open access: yesImmunobiology, 2002
Excessive activation of the protein cascade systems has been associated with post-transplantation inflammatory disorders. There is increasing evidence that complement not only significantly contributes to ischemia/reperfusion injury upon cold storage of the organ but also, although to a different degree, to allograft rejection. Complement activation is
