TPST2-mediated receptor tyrosine sulfation enhances leukocidin cytotoxicity and S. aureus infection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundAn essential fact underlying the severity of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) infection is the bicomponent leukocidins released by the pathogen to target and lyse host phagocytes through specific binding cell membrane receptors.

Complement Activation Linked to Type II Interferon Signaling in Still Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Still disease (SD) is an autoinflammatory syndrome characterized by innate immune dysregulation. Although complement can drive inflammation, its involvement in SD remains to be defined. Thus, we aimed to assess complement activation in SD. Methods Complement was assessed using transcriptomic, proteomic, and in vitro approaches. RNA sequencing

The synergistic impact of granulocytic myeloid‐derived suppressor cells and innate lymphoid cells in systemic sclerosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by immune dysregulation and fibrosis, with myeloid‐derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) emerging as important regulators of immune responses. However, the role of MDSCs in SSc‐associated fibrosis and their interactions with other immune cell populations remain poorly ...

Prenatal betamethasone–postnatal N‐methyl‐D‐aspartic acid model of spasms: Update on mechanisms and treatments

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Infantile epilepsy spasms syndrome (IESS), formerly known as infantile spasms or West Syndrome, is a severe epilepsy syndrome affecting about 3 in 10,000 newborns in the United States. Characterized by clusters of epileptic spasms, interictal hypsarrhythmia, and developmental delays, IESS has diverse causes, including structural‐metabolic ...

Deciphering diverse cell‐death patterns to predict the prognosis and potential therapy target of hepatocellular carcinoma patients

VIEW, EarlyView.
Abstract Ninety percent of all primary liver malignancies are hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), making liver cancer the third most common cause of cancer‐associated mortality. Different patterns of programmed cell death (PCD) are crucial for the survival of tumors, and they might serve as a prognostic marker for HCC.

C5aR1+ macrophages are involved in the progression of endometriosis

Reproductive and Developmental Medicine
Objective: Immune dysfunction plays an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. C5a, a by-product of complement activation, binds to its receptor (C5a receptor 1, C5aR1) in various cells, including macrophages. The combination of C5a and C5aR1 in macrophages induces M2 polarization. There is no consistent conclusion

Differential expression of C5aR1 and C5aR2 in innate and adaptive immune cells located in early skin lesions of bullous pemphigoid patients

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Bullous pemphigoid (BP), the by far most frequent autoimmune subepidermal blistering disorder (AIBD), is characterized by the deposition of autoantibodies against BP180 (type XVII collagen; Col17) and BP230 as well as complement components at the dermal ...
