Plant‐Based Production of Human Major Histocompatibility Complex Class II Molecules

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) protein triggers adaptive immune responses by presenting antigens on antigen‐presenting cells (APCs) to be recognised by CD4+ T cells. Recombinant MHC II proteins are effective for the analysis of peptide‐binding interaction, detection of antigen‐specific T‐cells and clinical testing for donor‐

L-Fucose treatment of FUT8-CDG

, 2020
FUT8-CDG is a severe multisystem disorder caused by mutations in FUT8, encoding the alpha-1,6-fucosyltransferase. We report on dizygotic twins with FUT8-CDG presenting with dysmorphisms, failure to thrive, and respiratory abnormalities. Due to the severe

Fucosylation limits ADCC in clinically used anti‐RhD monoclonal antibodies

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Haemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) is caused by maternal alloantibodies, often targeting the D antigen on fetal red blood cells. Maternal immunization is preventable with timely administration of anti‐D polyclonal antibodies (pAbs).

Pathophysiology of the gut–eye axis in a Sjögren's disease‐like dry eye mouse model: An exploratory evaluation of dietary heat‐treated Enterococcus faecalis FK‐23

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disease characterized by severe dry eye, but its pathophysiology remains unclear. Non‐obese diabetic (NOD) mice develop Sjögren's disease‐like dry eye prior to the onset of diabetes. Although intestinal immune abnormalities precede diabetes in NOD mice, their relationship to dry eye remains poorly understood.

O-Alkylated heavy atom carbohydrate probes for protein X-ray crystallography: Studies towards the synthesis of methyl 2-O-methyl-L-selenofucopyranoside

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2016
Selenoglycosides are used as reactive glycosyl donors in the syntheses of oligosaccharides. In addition, such heavy atom analogs of natural glycosides are useful tools for structure determination of their lectin receptors using X-ray crystallography ...

Glucose and fructose contributions to exogenous carbohydrate oxidation and performance at moderate altitude

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Co‐ingesting fructose with glucose increases exogenous carbohydrate oxidation at sea level, but its effect at altitude is unclear. This study compared glucose–fructose (GLU–FRU), glucose alone (GLU) and placebo during 120 min of running at 70% V̇O2max${{\dot{V}}_{{{{\mathrm{O}}}_2}{\mathrm{max}}}}$ at 2500 m in eight males.

Short‐Chain Fatty Acids: Microbial Metabolites Driving Gut‐Eye Axis Signaling

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 5, October 2026.
Short‐chain fatty acids generated by gut microbial fermentation link diet to ocular physiology via the gut–eye axis. Through systemic distribution, these metabolites regulate GPCR signaling, epigenetic pathways, inflammation, and angiogenesis, shaping retinal homeostasis and highlighting therapeutic potential in ocular vascular and inflammatory ...

Glycosylation engineering of therapeutic IgG antibodies: challenges for the safety, functionality and efficacy

Protein & Cell, 2017
Glycosylation of the Fc region of IgG has a profound impact on the safety and clinical efficacy of therapeutic antibodies. While the biantennary complex-type oligosaccharide attached to Asn297 of the Fc is essential for antibody effector functions ...

Frozen in Place: Proximity Labeling Maps Glial Interactomes Across Cell States

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 10, October 2026.
Proximity labeling enables cell‐type‐specific and spatially resolved mapping of glial protein networks. Proximity labeling approaches provide insights into glial function under physiological and pathological conditions. ABSTRACT Glial cells, including radial glia, oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs), oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and microglia, are ...
