The long term vaccine-induced anti-SARS-CoV-2 immune response is impaired in quantity and quality under TNFα blockade. [PDF]
Abstract The humoral immune response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) vaccination in patients with chronic inflammatory disease (CID) declines more rapidly with tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) inhibition. Furthermore, the efficacy of current vaccines against Omicron variants of concern (VOC) including BA.2 is limited ...

Iron insertion into coproporphyrin III-ferrochelatase complex: Evidence for an intermediate distorted catalytic species. [PDF]
Abstract Understanding the reaction mechanism of enzymes at the molecular level is generally a difficult task, since many parameters affect the turnover. Often, due to high reactivity and formation of transient species or intermediates, detailed information on enzymatic catalysis is obtained by means of model substrates.

N-Acylethanolamine acid amidase (NAAA) is dysregulated in colorectal cancer patients and its inhibition reduces experimental cancer growth. [PDF]
Background and Purpose N‐Acylethanolamine acid amidase (NAAA) is a lysosomal enzyme accountable for the breakdown of N‐acylethanolamines (NAEs) and its pharmacological inhibition has beneficial effects in inflammatory conditions. The knowledge of NAAA in cancer is fragmentary with an unclarified mechanism, whereas its contribution to colorectal cancer (

Freedom from disease in psoriasis: a Delphi consensus definition by patients, nurses and physicians. [PDF]
Abstract Background Physician‐reported clinical outcome and quality of life (QoL) measures are currently used to assess outcomes and direct treatment of plaque psoriasis. However, people with psoriasis may have different criteria for judging treatment success.

Anti-TNF therapy impairs both short- and long-term IgG responses after repeated vaccination. [PDF]
Human vaccination study discovers that booster vaccinations induce a recurring IgG antibody Fc glycosylation curve across all IgG subclasses. Proposed model: initial extrafollicular B cell activation as well as re‐activation of GC‐derived IgG+ memory B cells generate short‐lived PCs that produce highly galactosylated and sialylated short‐term IgG ...

ZMAT3 hypomethylation contributes to early senescence of preadipocytes from healthy first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetics. [PDF]
The senescence of adipose precursor cells (APC) contributes to the increased risk of Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) in both elderly subjects and young and non‐obese first‐degree relatives of T2D patients (FDR). DNA hypomethylation in the APC from FDR individuals leads to an upregulation of ZMAT3 which activates the p53/p21 pathway, causing the acquisition of ...

Hercynian anatexis in the envelope of the Beni Bousera peridotites (Alboran Domain, Morocco): Implications for the tectono-metamorphic evolution of the deep crustal roots of the Mediterranean region [PDF]
The metamorphic core of the Betic-Rif orogenic chain (Alboran Domain) is made up of lower crustal rocks forming the envelope of the Ronda (Spain) and Beni Bousera (Morocco) peridotites. The deepest sections of the crustal envelopes are made of migmatitic
