ABSTRACT Background and Aims Fluoroquinolone exposure can give rise to drug‐induced liver injury. Genetic risk factors for this form of liver injury are poorly understood but some evidence suggests that HLA genes contribute. This study aimed to characterise HLA risk factors for fluoroquinolone‐induced liver injury in a European population. Methods From

We investigated differences in peptide repertoire when β2‐microglobulin is fused to the HLA‐I heavy chain. We observed: (1) that immunopeptidomes changed in this condition, (2) an overall increased median IC50 of the entire peptide repertoire, and (3) a reduced presentation of cancer‐specific epitopes with a strong predicted binding affinity for HLA‐I.

ERAP1 Allotypes 2 and 10 Differentially Regulate the Immunopeptidome of Melanocytes
ERAP1 is an intracellular aminopeptidase that edits antigenic peptides to be presented by MHC class I molecules and is found in distinct functional allotypes in individuals. To investigate how different disease‐associated ERAP1 allotypes affect the cellular immunopeptidome, we generated A375 melanoma cell clones carrying either allotype 2 or allotype ...

Cephalosporin‐induced liver injury usually presents as a self‐limited, mixed, or cholestatic hepatitis without hypersensitivity features, typically developing 1 to 4 weeks after treatment. With cefazolin, it often occurs after a single parenteral dose. A strong genetic association has been found with HLA‐A*02:01, with more severe liver injury at onset.

Endoplasmic Reticulum aminopeptidase 1 and 2 (ERAP1 and ERAP2) are key components on the pathway that generates antigenic epitopes for presentation to cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs).

ABSTRACT Peeling skin, leukonychia, acral punctate keratoses, cheilitis, and knuckle pads (PLACK) syndrome (OMIM616295) is an exceptionally rare autosomal recessive genodermatosis caused by loss‐of‐function pathogenic variants in the CAST gene, encoding calpastatin.

This review explores intracranial aneurysm biomarker discovery through multi‐omics. It reveals key genes, proteins, and metabolites, and shows how machine‐learning‐based multi‐modal integration may aid diagnosis and treatment. Abstract Despite extensive research, currently, no biomarkers are available for clinical use in intracranial aneurysm (IA ...

This article elaborates on the role of NK cells in early pregnancy from multiple perspectives, including molecular mechanisms and therapeutic interventions. It also discusses how NK cell dysfunction contributes to RSA and RIF, aiming to provide insights for future research on NK cell mechanisms and clinical treatment of RSA and RIF.

A genome-wide association study identifies a functional ERAP2 haplotype associated with birdshot chorioretinopathy [PDF]
Birdshot chorioretinopathy (BSCR) is a rare form of autoimmune uveitis that can lead to severe visual impairment. Intriguingly, >95% of cases carry the HLA-A29 allele, which defines the strongest documented HLA association for a human disease. We have conducted a genome-wide association study in 96 Dutch and 27 Spanish cases, and 398 unrelated Dutch ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccine‐associated liver injury (SVALI) is a rare event and its pathophysiology remains unclear. Previous studies have found an oligoclonal CD8+ T cell infiltrate and SARS‐CoV‐2 spike antigen‐specific T cells in the liver of patients with SVALI. Therefore, we aimed to characterise the immune infiltrate in a liver
