Clinical and virological characteristics of hantavirus infections in a 2014 Croatian outbreak

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2017
Introduction: Croatia is endemic for hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), with both Puumala (PUUV) and Dobrava virus (DOBV) documented. Several large outbreaks were recorded in 1995, 2002, and 2012. We analyzed demographic, clinical, laboratory,

A cross-reactive idiotype in scleroderma [PDF]

Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 1997
SUMMARY Autoantibodies to centromere proteins (anti-CENPs) and to topoisomerase-I are highly specific for scleroderma. Unlike most autoantibodies in other diseases, these autoantibodies are mutually exclusive. We have analysed the idiotypes (Ids) expressed by anti-CENP-B, antitopoisomerase-I, and IgGs from 20 scleroderma patients. Rabbit

Serological cross-reactivity among common flaviviruses

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
The Flavivirus genus is made up of viruses that are either mosquito-borne or tick-borne and other viruses transmitted by unknown vectors. Flaviviruses present a significant threat to global health and infect up to 400 million of people annually.

A Case of Cross-Reactivity

Chemistry & Biology, 2011
Studies using chemical inhibitors have suggested that p38 MAP kinase is a key regulator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling. In this issue, Verkaar et al. (2011) show that cross-reactivity of p38 inhibitors with casein kinase Iδ/ɛ is responsible for Wnt/β-catenin pathway inhibition.

T cells specific to multiple Bet v 1 peptides are highly cross-reactive toward the corresponding peptides from the homologous group of tree pollens

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundAllergens from Fagales trees frequently cause spring allergy in Europe, North America, and some parts of Asia. The definition of the birch homologous group, which includes birch (Bet v), oak (Que a), alder (Aln g), hazel (Cor a), hornbeam (Car ...

Antigenic cross‐reactivity between electrolectins [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 1982
The antigenic cross‐reactivity between purified chick, eel and mouse electrolectins (endogenous β‐D‐galactoside specifc lectins) have been studied using a solid phase radioimmunoassay. The immune serum raised against the eel electrolectin crossreacts both with the chick and the mouse electrolectins, while the anti‐chick electrolectin anti‐serum ...

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Immunological cross-reactivity between olive and grass pollen: implication of major and minor allergens

World Allergy Organization Journal, 2014
Background Grasses and olive trees are the most common sources of allergenic pollen worldwide. Although they share some allergens, there are few studies analyzing the in vitro cross-reactivity between them.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
