Complement classical and alternative pathway activation contributes to diabetic kidney disease progression: a glomerular proteomics on kidney biopsies

open access: yesScientific Reports
Increasing evidence points toward an essential role for complement activation in the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). However, the precise molecular mechanisms remain unclear, and the pathway predominantly contributing to complement ...

Proteomic and Transcriptomic Signatures of Poor Asthma Symptom Control in the U‐BIOPRED Cohort

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
No stable features were identified as associated with asthma symptom control in transcriptomics or sputum proteomics. Higher TWEAKR/TNFRSF12A and MBL/MBP‐C serum levels increased the odds of uncontrolled symptoms, while higher MK08/MAPK8 and CD5L serum levels decreased the odds, after adjustment for clinical variables.

International Guideline on the Diagnosis and Management of Pediatric Patients With Hereditary Angioedema

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary angioedema (HAE) with C1 inhibitor deficiency is a rare disease characterized by unpredictable episodes of tissue swelling (angioedema), which, in most cases, occur first under the age of 18 years, and entail a significant burden of disease not only for the patients but also for their families.

Glycosylation pattern of brush border-associated glycoproteins in enterocyte-like cells: involvement of complex-type N-glycans in apical trafficking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We have previously reported that galectin-4, a tandem repeat-type galectin, regulates the raft-dependent delivery of glycoproteins to the apical brush border membrane of enterocyte-like HT-29 cells.

Garadacimab for the long‐term prophylaxis of hereditary angioedema

open access: yesJDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Hereditary angioedema (HAE), a rare and debilitating disease characterized by recurrent and spontaneous attacks of tissue swelling, has a high unmet therapeutic need, with many patients experiencing insufficient disease control with current prophylactic treatments.

MASP-1 and MASP-2 Do Not Activate Pro-Factor D in Resting Human Blood, whereas MASP-3 Is a Potential Activator: Kinetic Analysis Involving Specific MASP-1 and MASP-2 Inhibitors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It had been thought that complement factor D (FD) is activated at the site of synthesis, and only FD lacking a propeptide is present in blood. The serum of mannose-binding lectin-associated serine protease (MASP)-1/3(-/-) mice contains pro-FD and has ...

Origin of Mannose-Binding Lectin-Associated Serine Protease (MASP)-1 and MASP-3 Involved in the Lectin Complement Pathway Traced Back to the Invertebrate, Amphioxus [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2003
Abstract Mannose-binding lectin-associated serine proteases (MASPs) are involved in complement activation through the lectin pathway. To elucidate the phylogenetic origin of MASP and a primordial complement system, we cloned two MASP cDNAs from amphioxus (Branchiostoma belcheri) of the cephalochordates, considered to be the closest ...
