Proteomic Profiling Informs Mechanisms of Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Inhibition by Cranberry Proanthocyanidins

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
In this study we utilized proteomic profiling to investigate mechanisms linked to the cancer‐inhibitory effect of cranberry proanthocyanidins (CPACs) on reflux‐induced esophageal adenocarcinoma in a rat model. The results indicate that CPAC inhibits cancer through targeting multiple hallmarks of cancer known to be dysregulated in progression to ...

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

Aging 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 ...

HIV induces expression of complement component C3 in astrocytes by NF-κB-dependent activation of interleukin-6 synthesis [PDF]

, 2017
Background Abnormal activation of the complement system contributes to some central nervous system diseases but the role of complement in HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) is unclear.

Complement Dysregulation in Obese Versus Nonobese Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Patients

Cells, 2023
Introduction: Upregulation of complement system factors are reported to be increased in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and may be due to obesity and insulin resistance rather than inherently due to PCOS.

Complement dysregulation in human tauopathies

Brain Pathology, EarlyView.
Complement protein and activation product levels were assessed in post‐mortem frontal cortex from three distinct subtypes of Tauopathy: Corticobasal degeneration, globular glial tauopathy, and Pick's disease. Quantification of complement proteins by immunohistochemistry and ELISA showed elevation of key complement proteins (C1q) regulators (FI) and ...

Complement activation and regulation in preeclamptic placenta

Frontiers in Immunology, 2014
Preeclampsia (PE) is a common disorder of pregnancy originating in the placenta. We examined whether excessive activation or poor regulation of the complement system at the maternal-fetal interface could contribute to the development of PE.

Effect of Vibrio-Derived Extracellular Protease vEP-45 on the Blood Complement System

Biology, 2021
Vibrio vulnificus is a pathogenic bacterium that can causes wound infections and fetal septicemia. We have reported that V. vulnificus ATCC29307 produces an extracellular zinc-metalloprotease (named vEP-45).

Nimodipine reduces microglial activation in vitro as evidenced by morphological phenotype, phagocytic activity and high‐throughput RNA sequencing

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Nimodipine, an L‐type voltage‐gated calcium channel blocker, is an approved cerebral vasorelaxant. We hypothesized that nimodipine attenuates the pro‐inflammatory shift in microglial phenotypes. Here, we analysed the effects of nimodipine on morphological and functional microglial phenotypes as well as their transcriptomic ...
