Autophagy in Immune-Related Renal Disease

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2019
Autophagy is an important biology process, central to the maintenance of biology process in both physiological and pathological situations. It is regarded as a “double-edged sword”—exerting both protective and/or detrimental effects.

C1q A08 Is a Half-Cryptic Epitope of Anti-C1q A08 Antibodies in Lupus Nephritis and Important for the Activation of Complement Classical Pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
To investigate the fine epitope(s) of anti-C1q A08 antibodies and their roles in complement activation in lupus nephritis, C1q A08 and related peptides with various amino acid sequences around A08 were synthesized.

Inference and Prediction Using Functional Principal Components Analysis: Application to Diabetic Kidney Disease Progression in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) Study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Repeated longitudinal measurements are commonly used to model long-term disease progression, and timing and number of assessments per patient may vary, leading to irregularly spaced and sparse data. Longitudinal trajectories may exhibit curvilinear patterns, in which mixed linear regression methods may fail to capture true trends in the data.

Complement Factor H Inhibits Anti-Neutrophil Cytoplasmic Autoantibody-Induced Neutrophil Activation by Interacting With Neutrophils

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Our previous study demonstrated that plasma levels of complement factor H (FH) were inversely associated with the disease activity of patients with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV).

Unlocking the potential of tumor‐derived DNA in urine for cancer detection: methodological challenges and opportunities

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Urine is a rich source of biomarkers for cancer detection. Tumor‐derived material is released into the bloodstream and transported to the urine. Urine can easily be collected from individuals, allowing non‐invasive cancer detection. This review discusses the rationale behind urine‐based cancer detection and its potential for cancer diagnostics ...

Concurrence of leukocyte chemotactic factor 2-associated amyloidosis and autoimmune diseases: A case report

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Leukocyte chemotactic factor 2-associated (ALECT2) amyloidosis is one of the recently reported types of amyloidosis, which is caused by the extracellular deposition of leukocyte chemotactic factor 2 (LECT2).

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.

Evaluating epoetin dosing strategies using observational longitudinal data [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Statistics 2014, Vol. 8, No. 4, 2356-2377, 2015
Epoetin is commonly used to treat anemia in chronic kidney disease and End Stage Renal Disease subjects undergoing dialysis, however, there is considerable uncertainty about what level of hemoglobin or hematocrit should be targeted in these subjects. In order to address this question, we treat epoetin dosing guidelines as a type of dynamic treatment ...

Targeting rapid TKI‐induced AXL upregulation overcomes adaptive ERK reactivation and exerts antileukemic effects in FLT3/ITD acute myeloid leukemia

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Adaptive ERK reactivation hinders FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment in FLT3/ITD acute myeloid leukemia. Here, we report that FLT3 TKI treatment rapidly induces AXL expression and upregulation that is temporally associated with the adaptive ERK reactivation.
