Unveiling Gut Homeostasis Disruption in Sepsis: Towards an Integrated Mechanistic and Translational Roadmap

open access: yesCell Proliferation, Volume 59, Issue 8, August 2026.
Elucidating the contribution of gut‐organ axes will provide new insights for developing combined therapeutic strategies against sepsis‐associated multiple organ dysfunction. ABSTRACT Sepsis, a life‐threatening clinical syndrome precipitated by a maladaptive host response to infection, is associated with substantial morbidity and high mortality rates ...

ACPAs Are Much More Than Diagnostic Autoantibodies

open access: yesRambam Maimonides Medical Journal, 2016
Anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies (ACPAs) are the major autoantibodies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies are directed against different citrullinated antigens, including filaggrin, fibrinogen, vimentin, and ...

Tolerogenic citrullinated peptide for arthritis

open access: yesOncotarget, 2015
Disease-specific autoantibodies directed against post-translation citrullinated proteins/peptides (ACPAs) are specific serological markers for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and have been accepted as one of the classification criteria for the disease. Beyond diagnosis these autoantibodies have also been shown also to predict disease severity.

Plasma Elastase Screening in Hematological Disease Reveals Its Potential as a Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarker in Hematological Malignancies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 4, Page 795-806, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neutrophil‐extracellular traps are net‐like material released by triggered neutrophils and composed of decondensed chromatin linked to nuclear proteins. Elastase, one of the fourth most represented neutrophil‐specific serine proteases stored in azurophil granules of naïve neutrophils, exerts various actions, including degradation ...

SMARCAD1 Contributes to the Regulation of Naive Pluripotency by Interacting with Histone Citrullination

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
Histone citrullination regulates diverse cellular processes. Here, we report that SMARCAD1 preferentially associates with H3 arginine 26 citrullination (H3R26Cit) peptides present on arrays composed of 384 histone peptides harboring distinct post ...

Anti‐Modified Protein Antibodies in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Pathogenic, Protective, or Passive Bystander?

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 341, Issue 1, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The presence of anti‐modified protein antibodies (AMPA) is a hallmark of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). AMPA recognize post‐translationally modified proteins and are cross‐reactive. AMPA include anti‐citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA), anti‐carbamylated protein antibodies (anti‐CarP), and anti‐acetylated protein antibodies (AAPA).

Beyond Sequence: Posttranslational Remodeling of Antigens in Autoimmunity

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 341, Issue 1, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Autoimmune responses are often attributed to failed tolerance to self‐proteins, yet protein expression alone cannot explain why certain antigens dominate disease, why autoreactivity emerges under stress, or why specific HLA alleles shape risk.

The TG2/LRP1 Pathway for T Cell Activation by Post‐Translationally Modified Antigens

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 341, Issue 1, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) can generate neo‐epitopes, modified peptides that evade immune tolerance and trigger immune responses. This review focuses on the TG2/LRP1 pathway as a new paradigm for coupling the formation of post‐translationally modified peptides with their effective presentation as T‐cell antigens by dendritic cells.

Citrullination and Deamidation in Type 1 Diabetes: Linking Beta Cell Stress to Neoantigen‐Driven Autoimmunity

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 341, Issue 1, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Citrullination and deamidation are post‐translational modifications (PTMs) increasingly recognized as important contributors to neoepitope formation in type 1 diabetes (T1D). Under inflammatory and endoplasmic reticulum stress conditions, beta cells activate calcium‐dependent peptidylarginine deiminase and transglutaminase enzymes, leading to ...
