A quantitative and site-specific atlas of the citrullinome reveals widespread existence of citrullination and insights into PADI4 substrates

open access: yesNature Structural & Molecular Biology
Despite the importance of citrullination in physiology and disease, global identification of citrullinated proteins, and the precise targeted sites, has remained challenging.

Exposure to Occupational Inhalants and the Risk of Developing Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by joint pain, swelling, and stiffness. Although smoking is a well‐established risk factor for RA, the role of occupational inhalants in RA development is less well recognized.

Cryo-electron tomography reveals the multiplex anatomy of condensed native chromatin and its unfolding by histone citrullination

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
Nucleosome chains fold and self-associate to form higher order structures whose internal organization is unknown. Here, cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) of native human chromatin reveals novel folding motifs such as 1) non-uniform nucleosome stacking ...

A cooperative release of mitochondrial DNA from platelets and neutrophils drives an interferon signature in systemic sclerosis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Mitochondria are organelles with a hypomethylated circular genome. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in the systemic circulation has been implicated in inflammation. This study investigates the role of circulating DNA in systemic sclerosis (SSc) and the cellular mechanisms governing its release.

Histone Citrullination Mediates a Protective Role in Endothelium and Modulates Inflammation

open access: yesCells, 2022
NETosis is a key host immune process against a pathogenic infection during innate immune activation, consisting of a neutrophil “explosion” and, consequently, NET formation, containing mainly DNA, histones, and other nuclear proteins.

Epigenetic Regulation in the Pathogenesis of Renal Inflammation: Insights and Therapeutic Potentials

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Renal inflammation is a common pathological process in various kidney diseases, often initiated by factors such as toxins, ischemia, or autoimmune reactions. This inflammatory response can result in structural damage and a rapid decline in renal function.

Reactive oxygen species inhibit catalytic activity of peptidylarginine deiminase

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2017
Protein citrullination catalysed by peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) may play an important pathogenic role in several chronic inflammatory diseases and malignancies. PAD2, PAD4, and citrullinated proteins are found in the synovium of rheumatoid arthritis

Molecular Dynamic Simulations Suggest That Metabolite-Induced Post-Translational Modifications Alter the Behavior of the Fibrinogen Coiled-Coil Domain

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Fibrinogen is an abundant blood plasma protein that, inter alia, participates in blood coagulation. It polymerizes to form a fibrin clot that is among the major components of the thrombus. Fibrinogen reactions with various reactive metabolites may induce
