Single‐Cell Profiling Reveals Clonally Expanded CX3CR1+ T Cells in Anti‐NMDA Receptor Encephalitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CX3CR1+ T cells are associated with peripheral and central immune alterations in anti‐NMDA receptor encephalitis (NMDAR‐E). They show potential responsiveness to GluN1 (NR1) peptides, potential interactions with peripheral B cells, clonal expansion, increased CD137/CD154 expression, and inflammatory cytokine production. Their preferential cerebrospinal

Activation of complement component C5: comparison of C5 convertases of the lectin pathway and the classical pathway of complement.

The Journal of biological chemistry, 2008
Although the initiating complex of lectin pathway (called M1 in this study) generates C3/C5 convertases similar to those assembled by the initiating complex (C1) of the classical pathway, activation of complement component C5 via the lectin pathway has not been examined.

Targeting Complement C5 in Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome [PDF]

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2011
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is defined as the combination of microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA), acute renal failure, and thrombocytopenia. It occurs most often during outbreaks of diarrheal food poisoning with enteropathogenic strains of Escherichia coli such as O157:H7 and others ...

Hydrogen‐Bonding Order Associated With Radical Delocalization in Layered Organic Cathode Materials

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
“TAQ” and TAPT share the same pyrazine‐based molecular structure but differ in degree of crystallinity. Combined x‐ray scattering, solid‐state NMR, MicroED, and EPR reveal that “TAQ”'s higher crystallinity and ordered hydrogen‐bonding network are associated with enhanced radical delocalization and conductivity, highlighting structural order as a design

Local Order Is Not Enough: Synthetically Accessible Polymers Reveal the Role of Side‐chain Branching Point in Organic Solar Cell and Transistor Performance

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Systematic variation of the side‐chain branching point in a series of donor polymers reveals that moving the branch further from the backbone improves local crystal quality but reduces the overall degree of crystallinity, leading to progressively worse organic solar cell and transistor performance.

Intermolecular Carbon–Carbon Naphthalene Coupling Involves a Radical Mechanism Driven by Cytochrome P450 in Alternaria alternata

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
1,8‐DHN is an important intermediate to form complex aromatic ring systems. Phenol‐coupling reactions are important for the dimerization of two molecules. Here, we show that a fungal cytochrome P450 enzyme catalyzes specific C─C bonds. ABSTRACT Dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) derivatives are precursors of biologically important molecules, including melanin ...
