A novel assay to quantitate MASP-2/ficolin-3 complexes in serum

open access: yesImmunobiology, 2012
Ficolin-1, -2 and -3 are recognition molecules in the lectin complement pathway and form complexes with serine proteases named MASP-1, -2 and -3 and two nonenzymatic proteins. MASP-2 is the main initiator of lectin pathway activation, while ficolin-3 is the most abundant ficolin molecule in the circulation.

Comprehensive Analysis of Prognostic Value and Immune Infiltration of Ficolin Family Members in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Objective: Ficolin (FCN) family proteins are part of the innate immune system, play a role as recognition molecules in the complement system, and are associated with tumor development.

MASP-1 and MASP-2 Do Not Activate Pro-Factor D in Resting Human Blood, whereas MASP-3 Is a Potential Activator: Kinetic Analysis Involving Specific MASP-1 and MASP-2 Inhibitors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It had been thought that complement factor D (FD) is activated at the site of synthesis, and only FD lacking a propeptide is present in blood. The serum of mannose-binding lectin-associated serine protease (MASP)-1/3(-/-) mice contains pro-FD and has ...

H-ficolin (ficolin-3) concentrations and FCN3 gene polymorphism in neonates

open access: yesImmunobiology, 2012
Serum H-ficolin (ficolin-3) concentrations (n=613) and FCN3 genotypes (n=529) from a large group of neonates are presented. Both pre-term deliveries and low birthweight (independently of gestational age) were significantly associated with low H-ficolin concentrations but not with heterozygosity for the FCN3 1637delC frameshift mutation. The presence of

Yersinia enterocolitica O:3 Outer Membrane Vesicles as a Platform for Complement Activation

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
Basic characteristics and biological activity of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) secreted by Yersinia enterocolitica O:3 (YeO3), depending on LPS chemotype and growth temperature. ABSTRACT Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is the major component of the outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) of Gram‐negative bacteria.

Proteomic analysis of mare follicular fluid during late follicle development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Follicular fluid accumulates into the antrum of follicle from the early stage of follicle development. Studies on its components may contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying follicular development and oocyte quality ...

Proteomic Profiling of Human Extracellular Vesicles Reveals Diagnostic Biomarkers for Colon Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
Proteomic profiling of tissue explant‐ and plasma‐derived extracellular vesicles identified colon adenocarcinoma‐associated and healthy‐associated EV proteins. A 10‐protein EV panel enabled highly sensitive blood‐based detection of colon adenocarcinoma, showed marked postoperative changes, and retained performance in an independent validation cohort ...

Therapeutic Potential of Lentiviral miR‐200a Mimics in Regulating Fibrinolysis and EMT Markers During Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
The graphical abstract contrasts normal and fibrotic lungs, illustrating how miR‐200a mimics suppress PAI‐1 and EMT markers, restore fibrinolysis, and reduce MMP‐driven ECM deposition. This schematic highlights the therapeutic potential of miR‐200a in mitigating pulmonary fibrosis progression.
