Interaction of lactoferrin, lysozyme and the complement system in in vitro modeling of innate immune responses

Журнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии
Introduction. Complement is a key humoral participant of immunity involved in defensive and pathological processes. Human lysozyme (hLZ), hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) and lactoferrin (LF) are classical constituents of innate immunity.

Bothrops snake venoms and their isolated toxins, an L-amino acid oxidase and a serine protease, modulate human complement system pathways

Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2015
Background Activation of the complement system plays an important role in the regulation of immune and inflammatory reactions, and contributes to inflammatory responses triggered by envenomation provoked byBothrops snakes.

Spirochetal Lipoproteins and Immune Evasion. [PDF]

, 2017
Spirochetes are a major threat to public health. However, the exact pathogenesis of spirochetal diseases remains unclear. Spirochetes express lipoproteins that often determine the cross talk between the host and spirochetes.

Identifying gene expression signatures for risk stratification of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy in colorectal cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
A novel signature integrating genome‐wide analysis with clinical factors predicts recurrence in stage II colorectal cancer and enables a new risk stratification to guide postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. Clinical risk stratification for postoperative recurrence in patients with pathological stage II (pStage II) colorectal cancer (CRC) is essential ...

Preferential association of hepatitis C virus with CD19+ B cells is mediated by complement system [PDF]

, 2016
Extrahepatic disease manifestations are common in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The mechanism of HCV-related lymphoproliferative disorders is not fully understood.

Characterization of Complement Activity in Turkeys: Evidence for Classical and Alternative Complement Pathways

Poultry Science, 1989
Complement activity in turkey serum was examined by using inhibitors or activators of mammalian complement. Hemolytic test systems using sheep red blood cells sensitized with specific antibody (SSRBC) and horse red blood cells (HRBC) were developed to measure residual complement activity of turkey sera treated with the various inhibitors or activators.

Risk Prediction Models for Recurrence After Curative Treatment of Early‐Stage or Locally Advanced Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This systematic review synthesizes prognostic models for survival and recurrence in resected non‐small cell lung cancer. While many models demonstrate moderate to good discrimination, few are externally validated and reporting quality is variable, limiting clinical applicability and highlighting the need for robust, transparent model development ...

In‐Depth Profiling Highlights the Effect of Efgartigimod on Peripheral Innate and Adaptive Immune Cells in Myasthenia Gravis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by antibody‐mediated complement activation. Efgartigimod, a neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) antagonist, is approved for treating generalized MG (gMG). However, its modulatory effects on upstream innate and adaptive immune cells remain largely unexplored.

Detection of antibody-dependent complement mediated inactivation of both autologous and heterologous virus in primary HIV-1 infection [PDF]

, 2005
Specific CD8 T-cell responses to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) are induced in primary infection and make an important contribution to the control of early viral replication.

Unraveling the Molecular Mechanisms of Glioma Recurrence: A Study Integrating Single‐Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Glioma recurrence severely impacts patient prognosis, with current treatments showing limited efficacy. Traditional methods struggle to analyze recurrence mechanisms due to challenges in assessing tumor heterogeneity, spatial dynamics, and gene networks.
