Shared dysregulation of complement and phosphorylation pathways in the cerebrospinal fluid of encephalitis, Aicardi–Goutières syndrome, and autism

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To identify shared and disorder‐specific molecular alterations across encephalitis, Aicardi–Goutières syndrome (AGS), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteomics. Method In this cross‐sectional case–control study, mass‐spectrometry‐based proteomics was performed on archived CSF samples collected between ...

Proteomic Pathways Linking Type 2 Diabetes Genetic Clusters to Cardiovascular Diseases: A Network Mendelian Randomisation Study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Genetic clusters related to Type 2 diabetes (T2D) have differential impact on cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), although the underlying mechanisms, such as proteomic perturbation, remain unexplored. We conducted a network Mendelian randomisation (MR) study to identify proteomic mediators linking T2D genetic clusters and CVDs.

Combating ageing beyond the cell: Emerging roles of extracellular proteostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ageing challenges the body's ability to maintain a stable and functional proteome, leading to protein damage and aggregation both inside and outside cells. This review focuses on the less well understood mechanisms of extracellular protein quality control and how they become disrupted in ageing, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases.

MINI-REVIEW: SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS AND DEFICIENCIES OF EARLY COMPONENTS OF THE COMPLEMENT CLASSICAL PATHWAY

Frontiers in Immunology, 2016
The complement system plays an important role in the innate and acquired immune response against pathogens. It consists of more than 30 proteins found in soluble form or attached to cell membranes. Most complement proteins circulate in inactive forms and

Oral Manifestations of Non Vascular Ehlers‐Danlos Syndrome Cross‐Sectional Study

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ehlers–Danlos syndromes are rare hereditary connective tissue disorders; however, their oral manifestations remain poorly characterized in molecularly confirmed individuals. The aim of this study was to describe the oral phenotype of patients with non‐vascular Ehlers‐Danlos syndromes compared to healthy controls.

Genetic risk variants implicate impaired maintenance and repair of periodontal tissues as causal for periodontitis—A synthesis of recent findings

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...
