The serine protease domain of MASP-3: enzymatic properties and crystal structure in complex with ecotin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Mannan-binding lectin (MBL), ficolins and collectin-11 are known to associate with three homologous modular proteases, the MBL-Associated Serine Proteases (MASPs). The crystal structures of the catalytic domains of MASP-1 and MASP-2 have been solved, but

Exploring the Functional Basis of Epigenetic Aging in Relation to Body Fat Phenotypes in the Norfolk Island Cohort

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023
DNA methylation is an epigenetic factor that is modifiable and can change over a lifespan. While many studies have identified methylation sites (CpGs) related to aging, the relationship of these to gene function and age-related disease phenotypes remains

Characterization of Carbon-Contaminated B4C-Coated Optics after Chemically Selective Cleaning with Low-Pressure RF Plasma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Boron carbide (B4C) is one of the few materials that is expected to be mostly resilient with respect to the extremely high brilliance of the photon beam generated by free electron lasers (FELs) and is thus of considerable interest for optical ...

C1 Complex: An Adaptable Proteolytic Module for Complement and Non-Complement Functions

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Complement C1 is the defining component of the classical pathway. Within the C1qC1r2C1s2 complex, C1q functions as a molecular scaffold for C1r2C1s2 and C1q binding to its ligands activates these two serine proteases.

TMT-Based Proteomics Reveal the Mechanism of Action of Amygdalin against Rheumatoid Arthritis in a Rat Model through Regulation of Complement and Coagulation Cascades

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
The limitations of current medications for treating rheumatoid arthritis (RA) emphasize the urgent need for the development of new drugs. This study aimed to investigate the potential anti-RA mechanism of amygdalin using tandem mass tag (TMT)-based ...

Genome wide expression profiling reveals suppression of host defence responses during colonisation by Neisseria meningitides but not N. lactamica. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Both Neisseria meningitidis and the closely related bacterium Neisseria lactamica colonise human nasopharyngeal mucosal surface, but only N. meningitidis invades the bloodstream to cause potentially life-threatening meningitis and septicaemia.

Photoemission Insight to Filling of Large 1.7 nm Diameter Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with Silver Chloride

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings, 2023
Here, I fill large 1.7 nm diameter single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with silver chloride (AgCl). I present photoemission insights into the filling of SWCNTs. C1s X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) reveals the p-doping of SWCNTs.

Multifocal periapical cemental dysplasia in periodontal Ehlers–Danlos syndrome combined with leukoencephalopathy in the mutation of c.890G > a, G297D [pEDS]

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2022
Periodontal Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome (pEDS) is a rare disorder caused by heterozygous mutations in complement 1 subunit genes C1R and C1S. To date, 148 cases have been described in the literature.We describe a case of a suspected de novo‐mutation of pEDS ...

Surface treatment of a polypropylene film with a nitrogen DBD at medium pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Surface treatment of polymer films is usually necessary to improve surface wetting and adhesion characteristics. Traditional liquid chemical processes have several disadvantages in contrast to dry finishing processes, like plasma technology.
