Abstract Background Pancreatic cancer is one of the most malignant tumors, with rapid metastasis, high mortality rate, and difficult early screening. Currently, gemcitabine is a first-line drug for pancreatic cancer patients, but its clinical effect is limited due to drug resistance.

Abstract Ankylosing Spondylitis is an autoimmune disease leading to inflammation in the joints and ligaments of the spine. ERAP1 is a major risk factor for AS and ERAP1 mutations may result in structural changes that alter the trimming efficiency, thereby altering the immune response. The underlying structural mechanisms of AS pathogenesis have

The potential impact of the fetal genotype on maternal blood pressure during pregnancy. [PDF]
The heritability of pregnancy-induced hypertension (encompassing both gestational hypertension and preeclampsia) is around 0.47, suggesting that there is a genetic component to its development.

Studies of stem cell and adhesion proteins in breast cancer [PDF]
Breast cancer is the commonest cancer and second leading cause of cancer death in women. It has been shown that breast cancer tumorigenic/stem cell like cells are CD24-/low CD44+EpCAM+.

Functionally distinct ERAP1 and ERAP2 are a hallmark of HLA-A29-(Birdshot) Uveitis [PDF]
AbstractBirdshot Uveitis (Birdshot) is a rare eye condition that affects HLA-A29-positive individuals and could be considered a prototypic member of the recently proposed “MHC-I-opathy” family. Genetic studies have pinpointed the ERAP1 and ERAP2 genes as shared associations across MHC-I-opathies, which suggests ERAP dysfunction may be a root cause for ...

Mechanisms of HIV Protein Degradation into Epitopes: Implications for Vaccine Design [PDF]
The degradation of HIV-derived proteins into epitopes displayed by MHC-I or MHC-II are the first events leading to the priming of HIV-specific immune responses and to the recognition of infected cells.

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 ...

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 ...
