Hereditary Angioedema due to C1-Inhibitor Deficiency in Pediatric Patients in Croatia – First National Study, Diagnostic and Prophylactic Challenges

Acta Clinica Croatica, 2019
Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare autosomal dominant disease with deficiency (type I) or dysfunction (type II) of C1 inhibitor, caused by mutations in the C1-INH gene, characterized by recurrent submucosal or subcutaneous edemas including skin ...

Practical Management of C1 Inhibitor Deficiency

Actas Dermo-Sifiliográficas (English Edition), 2007
C1 inhibitor deficiency is a rare syndrome clinically characterized by recurrent episodes of swelling of subcutaneous tissue or angioedema. It can involve the skin, upper respiratory airways and abdomen. There are two main types: hereditary and acquired. Angioedema can involve practically any part of the cutaneous surface, it can cause lethal laryngeal

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Successful long-term prophylaxis of hereditary pregnancy-associated angioedema with plasma-derived C1-inhibitor concentrate: a case report

Медицинская иммунология, 2021
Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare autosomal dominant disease caused by quantitative (type I) or functional (type II) deficiency in C1 esterase inhibitor (C1-INH). It may be caused by new mutations in up to 20% of patients.

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...
