Non-oral manifestations in adults with a clinical and molecularly confirmed diagnosis of periodontal Ehlers-Danlos syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Introduction: Periodontal Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (pEDS) is a rare autosomal dominant type of EDS characterised by severe early-onset periodontitis, lack of attached gingiva, pretibial plaques, joint hypermobility and skin hyperextensibility as per the ...

Two Different Missense C1S Mutations, Associated to Periodontal Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Lead to Identical Molecular Outcomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS) are clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorders characterized by soft connective tissue alteration like joint hypermobility and skin hyper-extensibility. We previously identified heterozygous missense mutations in the

The serine protease domain of MASP-3: enzymatic properties and crystal structure in complex with ecotin. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
International audienceMannan-binding lectin (MBL), ficolins and collectin-11 are known to associate with three homologous modular proteases, the MBL-Associated Serine Proteases (MASPs). The crystal structures of the catalytic domains of MASP-1 and MASP-2

Reduced expression of innate immunity-related genes in lymph node metastases of luminal breast cancer patients

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Immune system plays a dual role in cancer by either targeting or supporting neoplastic cells at various stages of disease, including metastasis. Yet, the exact immune-related transcriptome profiles of primary tumours (PT) and lymph node metastases (LNM ...

Multifunctional interaction of CihC/FbpC orthologs of relapsing fever spirochetes with host-derived proteins involved in adhesion, fibrinolysis, and complement evasion

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
IntroductionRelapsing fever (RF) remains a neglected human disease that is caused by a number of diverse pathogenic Borrelia (B.) species. Characterized by high cell densities in human blood, relapsing fever spirochetes have developed plentiful ...

Complement C1q Interacts With LRP1 Clusters II and IV Through a Site Close but Different From the Binding Site of Its C1r and C1s-Associated Proteases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
LRP1 is a large endocytic modular receptor that plays a crucial role in the scavenging of apoptotic material through binding to pattern-recognition molecules.

Weighted Hardy inequalities beyond Lipschitz domains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It is a well-known fact that in a Lipschitz domain \Omega\subset R^n a p-Hardy inequality, with weight d(x,\partial\Omega)^\beta, holds for all u\in C_0^\infty(\Omega) whenever ...

“Conformational dynamics of C1r inhibitor proteins from Lyme disease and relapsing fever spirochetes”

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
Borrelial pathogens are vector-borne etiological agents of Lyme disease, relapsing fever, and Borrelia miyamotoi disease. These spirochetes each encode several surface-localized lipoproteins that bind to components of the human complement system.

C1r serine proteinase of human complement: A case of intramolecular autolytic activation

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 1985
This paper presents a short review of our contribution to the knowledge of the structure and function of human Clr, the activation unit of C1, the first component of the classical pathway of complement. On the basis of the domain structure of Clr, a model accounting for its autolytic activation mechanism is proposed. We suggest that this represents the
