Mapping of the Epstein-Barr virus and C3dg binding sites to a common domain on complement receptor type 2. [PDF]
, 1989 Complement receptor type 2 (CR2;CD21), a member of the superfamily of proteins containing short consensus repeats (SCRs), is the B cell receptor for both the gp350/220 envelope protein of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), and for the C3dg protein of complement ...

Unraveling the Role of Allo-Antibodies and Transplant Injury. [PDF]
, 2016 Alloimmunity driving rejection in the context of solid organ transplantation can be grossly divided into mechanisms predominantly driven by either T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) and antibody-mediated rejection (ABMR), though the co-existence of both ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Assay of cardiopulmonary bypass system for porcine alveolar macrophages removing GFP-E. coli from erythrocyte surfaces [PDF]
PeerJWhile it is established that complement receptor molecules on the surface of erythrocytes are crucial for the clearance of immune complexes in the body, the molecular mechanisms underlying the interaction between macrophages and erythrocytes in pigs ...

Antimicrobial peptides and complement in neonatal hypoxia-ischemia induced brain damage [PDF]
, 2015 Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a clinical condition in the neonate, resulting from oxygen deprivation around the time of birth. HIE affects 1-5/1000 live births worldwide and is associated with the development of neurological deficits ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

Role of the complement system in the tumor microenvironment
Cancer Cell International, 2019 The complement system has traditionally been considered a component of innate immunity against invading pathogens and “nonself” cells. Recent studies have demonstrated the immunoregulatory functions of complement activation in the tumor microenvironment (

Single-Cell Transcriptomes Reveal a Complex Cellular Landscape in the Middle Ear and Differential Capacities for Acute Response to Infection. [PDF]
, 2020 Single-cell transcriptomics was used to profile cells of the normal murine middle ear. Clustering analysis of 6770 transcriptomes identified 17 cell clusters corresponding to distinct cell types: five epithelial, three stromal, three lymphocyte, two ...

An Inflammation-Centric View of Neurological Disease: Beyond the Neuron [PDF]
, 2018 Inflammation is a complex biological response fundamental to how the body deals with injury and infection to eliminate the initial cause of cell injury and effect repair.
