Linking preclinical models to clinical realities: VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors and thrombotic microangiopathy in cancer therapy

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
This study investigates the risk of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) induced by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors in cancer therapy. Using data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS), the WHO Global Database for Adverse Drug Reactions (Vigibase), and The Cancer ...

Control of the function of substrate-bound C4b-C3b by the complement receptor Cr1. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of experimental medicine, 1984
The complement fragments C3b and C4b are the main ligands for the membrane receptor CR1. We showed elsewhere that CR1 functions as an essential cofactor for the factor I-mediated enzymatic breakdown of membrane-bound C3b (*C3b) into C3c and * C3dg . One of the main findings of the present paper is that CR1 also promotes the degradation of bound C4b ...

Proteomic Profiling Informs Mechanisms of Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Inhibition by Cranberry Proanthocyanidins

open access: yesMolecular 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 ...

Functional recruitment of human complement inhibitor C4B-binding protein to outer membrane protein Rck of Salmonella. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Resistance to complement mediated killing, or serum resistance, is a common trait of pathogenic bacteria. Rck is a 17 kDa outer membrane protein encoded on the virulence plasmid of Salmonella enterica serovars Typhimurium and Enteritidis.

Citrullination of C1-inhibitor as a mechanism of impaired complement regulation in rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundDysregulated complement activation, increased protein citrullination, and production of autoantibodies against citrullinated proteins are hallmarks of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Age‐Dependent Regulation of Hippocampal Inflammation by the Mitochondrial Translocator Protein in Mice

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
The role of mitochondrial translocator protein (TSPO) in hippocampal inflammation is age‐dependent, with TSPO deletion drastically exacerbating inflammation in aged mice, while dampening it in young mice. This TSPO–aging interaction was linked to NF‐kβ and interferon regulatory transcriptional networks. TSPO deletion exacerbated age‐dependent depletion

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

open access: yesBritish 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 ...

C4B null alleles are not associated with genetic polymorphisms in the adjacent gene CYP21A2 in autism

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2008
Background Research indicates that the etiology of autism has a strong genetic component, yet so far the search for genes that contribute to the disorder, including several whole genome scans, has led to few consistent findings.

Complement Proteins as Soluble Pattern Recognition Receptors for Pathogenic Viruses

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The complement system represents a crucial part of innate immunity. It contains a diverse range of soluble activators, membrane-bound receptors, and regulators.
