Advances in the design and development of oncolytic measles viruses. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A successful oncolytic virus is one that selectively propagates and destroys cancerous tissue without causing excessive damage to the normal surrounding tissue. Oncolytic measles virus (MV) is one such virus that exhibits this characteristic and thus has

Sites of Production of Primate Serum Proteins Associated with the Complement System.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1967
SummaryVarious human and monkey tissues, including liver, spleen, bone marrow, and lung were found to incorporate C14-amino acids into 11S globulin (C′1q) in vitro. A comparison with previous studies on β10 (C′3) and 1β1E (C′4) production revealed a striking similarity in the sites of synthesis of these 3 proteins.

Interplay between circadian and other transcription factors—Implications for cycling transcriptome reprogramming

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

Self-Damage Caused by Dysregulation of the Complement Alternative Pathway: Relevance of the Factor H Protein Family

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
The alternative pathway is a continuously active surveillance arm of the complement system, and it can also enhance complement activation initiated by the classical and the lectin pathways.

Real‐time assay of ribonucleotide reductase activity with a fluorescent RNA aptamer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) synthesize DNA building blocks de novo, making them crucial in DNA replication and drug targeting. FLARE introduces the first single‐tube real‐time coupled RNR assay, which enables isothermal tracking of RNR activity at nanomolar enzyme levels and allows the reconstruction of allosteric regulatory patterns and rapid ...

The Complement System: A Prey of Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Trypanosoma cruzi is a protozoan parasite known to cause Chagas disease (CD), a neglected sickness that affects around 6–8 million people worldwide. Originally, CD was mainly found in Latin America but more recently, it has been spread to countries in ...

Complement System in the Pathogenesis of Benign Lymphoepithelial Lesions of the Lacrimal Gland. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
We aimed to examine the potential involvement of local complement system gene expression in the pathogenesis of benign lymphoepithelial lesions (BLEL) of the lacrimal gland.We collected data from 9 consecutive pathologically confirmed patients with BLEL ...

Secreted Autotransporter Toxin (Sat) Mediates Innate Immune System Evasion

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Several strategies are used by Escherichia coli to evade the host innate immune system in the blood, such as the cleavage of complement system proteins by secreted proteases.

The pathophysiology of the complement system in leprosy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The complement system, which consists of a group of proteins and glycoproteins, generally serves to amplify the effects of the interaction of antigen with antibody.
