The Impact of Agricultural Index Insurance on Farmers' Welfare and Climate Resilience: Findings From Uzbekistan

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Farmers need to urgently adapt to changing climate conditions for sustainable rural livelihoods. Index insurance is often discussed as a promising climate adaptation strategy. Yet, a clear differentiation between ex‐ante (insured but no damage) and ex‐post (payout) impacts of index insurance is still scarce. Using a framed field experiment, we

Human and Mouse Alzheimer's Seeds Differentially Affect Amyloid Deposition and Microglia‐Dependent Plaque Response in Aged Mice

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
This study shows that human and mouse brains contain a different pool of strains that differentially affect the formation of Aβ and tau aggregates. Moreover, the murine seeds trigger an unresponsiveness microglial state, which causes the loss of plaque microglial coverage and affects the formation of amyloid plaques, leading to more severe neuritic ...

Endotypes in Immune Mediated Drug Reactions: Present and Future of Relevant Biomarkers. An EAACI Task Force Report

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drug‐induced immune reactions are an important burden for patients and health systems. They can be classified into immediate‐drug hypersensitivity reactions (IDHRs) and delayed‐DHRs (DDHRs) based on their phenotype. Drugs do not always behave as allergens and need to bind to proteins, forming adducts.

Basophil Activation Test: Bridging Allergy and Oncology for Diagnostic, Therapeutic and Prognostic Applications in AllergoOncology: An EAACI Position Paper

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The basophil activation test (BAT) is gaining increasing relevance as an ex vivo functional assay in allergy to evaluate IgE‐mediated hypersensitivity reactions to food allergens, venoms, and drugs and to monitor tolerance induction. Establishing universal standard operating protocols has been difficult, due to several challenges including ...

Amniotic fluid embolism pathophysiology suggests the new diagnostic armamentarium: β-tryptase and complement fractions C3-C4 are the indispensable working tools [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is an uncommon obstetric condition involving pregnant women during labor or in the initial stages after delivery. Its incidence is estimated to be around 5.5 cases per 100,000 deliveries.

Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

The interaction between circulating complement proteins and cutaneous microvascular endothelial cells in the development of childhood Henoch-Schönlein Purpura. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
In addition to IgA, the deposition of complement (C)3 in dermal vessels is commonly found in Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP). The aim of this study is to elucidate the role of circulating complement proteins in the pathogenesis of childhood HSP.Plasma ...
