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.

Different Metabolomic and Proteomic Profiles of Cerebrospinal Fluid in Ventricular and Lumbar Compartments in Relation to Leptomeningeal Metastases

Metabolites, 2022
The different molecular profiles of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) between ventricular and lumbar compartments remain elusive, especially in the context of leptomeningeal metastasis (LM), which affects CSF flow.

Inhibition of the formation of the complement membrane-attack complex by a monoclonal antibody to the complement component C8 α subunit [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 1989
The effect of nine monoclonal antibodies to complement component C8 on the interaction of C9 with preformed cell-surface C5b-8 complexes and on the functional insertion of C8 into the membrane-attack complex (MAC) was investigated. None of the antibodies prevented C9 insertion into a preformed C5b-8 complex.

Advances and Perspectives in Graphene‐Based Quantum Dots Enabled Neuromorphic Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Graphene‐based QDs are zero‐dimensional carbon nanomaterials with pronounced quantum confinement and tunable electronic structures. Herein, we summarize their synthesis strategies and functionalization methods, and highlight their functional roles and operating mechanisms in devices, as well as recent advances in neuromorphic electronics. We anticipate

Identifying protein signatures in vesicles associated with treatment response in pulmonary sarcoidosis

Extracellular Vesicle
Approximately 30% of patients with sarcoidosis require immunosuppressive therapy to relieve symptoms or prevent organ damage. Prednisone and methotrexate (MTX) are the most commonly used therapies; however, treatment response varies considerably between ...
