Genomics and the changing profile of human disease

, 2003
Within the last decade, much has been written on the impending impact of the Human Genome Project on human health. A typical perspective was offered in 1995 as part of the submission of the Royal College of Physicians to the Science and Technology ...

Anti‐Carbamylated Protein Antibodies Stabilize Carbamylated Histone H3 to Promote Synovial Activation and Neutrophil Extracellular Trap‐Mediated Bone Loss in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Carbamylation, a nonenzymatic post‐translational modification, contributes to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. Anti‐carbamylated protein antibodies (anti‐CarP) occur in around 50% of patients with RA and associate with greater joint damage. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are a major source of carbamylated autoantigens. We sought

T Cell Plasticity in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Revealed by Large‐Scale T Cell Receptor Repertoire and Transcriptome Studies

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to characterize CD4+ T cell plasticity in human systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by leveraging T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire features as markers of prior lineage states, integrating TCR and transcriptomic profiling to delineate plasticity patterns and evaluate their association with clinical disease activity. Methods We used TCR

Homocitrullinated Peptides Drive Pro‐Inflammatory T Cell Responses in a Humanized Mouse Model of Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Anti‐homocitrullinated protein/peptide antibodies are specific to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and predictive of worse prognosis, suggesting a pathogenic role for autoreactivity to homocitrullinated peptides (HomoCitP). However, T cell responses to HomoCitP remain largely unexplored.

Developing a critical caste analysis within information science and technology: A research review: An annual review of information science and technology paper

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Caste—an ascriptive social hierarchy in South Asia and its diaspora—is a globalized phenomenon. Recent caste‐based discrimination, particularly in technology companies and anti‐caste efforts to address it, has compelled academia, policy, and the technology industry to better understand contemporary mechanics of caste.

Consanguinity in South America: demographic aspects

, 2001
A sample of 53,552 nonmalformed liveborn infants was ascertained by the Latin-American Collaborative Study of Congenital Malformations between 1967 and 1996. The mean consanguinity rate was 0.96%, with significantly higher values in Brazil and Venezuela,

Immunoinformatics‐Based Design of a Multi‐Epitope Vaccine Targeting a Conserved Copper–Associated Protein in Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae poses an urgent public health challenge due to rapidly increasing antimicrobial resistance and the absence of an effective vaccine. Targeting conserved bacterial pathways involved in essential physiological processes may provide new opportunities for vaccine antigen discovery.

Affinity Peptides With pH Sensitivity for the Enrichment of CD38+ Cells

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The selective enrichment of cell populations based on surface markers is critical for the advancement of gene and cell therapies. Current antibody‐based cell isolation methods, such as fluorescence‐ and magnetic‐activated cell sorting (FACS and MACS), offer high specificity but are limited by scalability, cost, and potential adverse effects on
