Oxidative Stress in Antigen Processing and Presentation

open access: yesMedComm – Oncology, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a crucial role in antigen processing and presentation, essential for linking innate and adaptive immunity. While balanced ROS levels promote immune function, excess ROS can disrupt antigen recognition, resulting in immune dysfunction.

iPSC‐derived human cortical organoids display profound alterations of cellular homeostasis following SARS‐CoV‐2 infection and Spike protein exposure

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 4, 28 February 2025.
Graphical representation of the study workflow. iPSC‐derived human cortical organoids (HCOs) at Day 40, were in vitro infected by SARS‐CoV‐2 or exposed to the Spike protein and viral infection/replication was assessed by a multidisciplinary approach using RT‐qPCR, TCID50, and immunofluorescence.

Contribution of Antigen-Processing Machinery Genetic Polymorphisms to Atopic Dermatitis

open access: yesLife, 2021
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic and recurrent inflammatory dermatosis. We recently described an association of the C allele of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs26618 in the ERAP1 gene and a synergism of ERAP1 and ERAP2 effects on AD risk ...

Maternal Pre-Pregnancy Obesity Is Associated with Altered Placental Transcriptome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Maternal obesity has a major impact on pregnancy outcomes. There is growing evidence that maternal obesity has a negative influence on placental development and function, thereby adversely influencing offspring programming and health outcomes.

Genetic and Genomic Approaches to the Study of Drug‐Induced Liver Injury

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity induced by prescribed drugs has been known since the early 20th century. Identifying risk factors, including genetic factors, that trigger this drug‐induced liver injury (DILI) has been an important priority for many years, both to prevent drugs that cause liver injury being licensed and as a potential means of ...

Novel candidate blood-based transcriptional biomarkers of Machado-Joseph disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Machado-Joseph disease (or spinocerebellar ataxia type 3) is a late-onset polyglutamine neurodegenerative disorder caused by a mutation in the ATXN3 gene, which encodes for the ubiquitously expressed protein ataxin-3.

Transcriptomic Profiling of Dental Tissue‐Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells

open access: yesStem Cells International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The aim of this study was to compare whole‐genome gene expressions of periodontal ligament (PDL) and pulp (P) mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from third molar (m), premolar (p), and deciduous (dec) teeth. Total RNAs were isolated and used for cRNA synthesis. Human Expression Hybridization Assay was used for 47,000 probes.

A role for naturally occurring alleles of Endoplasmic Reticulum Aminopeptidases in tumor immunity and cancer predisposition

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2014
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).

The global effect of follicle-stimulating hormone and tumour necrosis factor α on gene expression in cultured bovine ovarian granulosa cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background Oocytes mature in ovarian follicles surrounded by granulosa cells. During follicle growth, granulosa cells replicate and secrete hormones, particularly steroids close to ovulation.
