Objective Still's disease (SD) is an autoinflammatory disorder characterized by remarkably high IL‐18 levels. Increasing evidence suggests that adaptive immunity also contributes to its pathogenesis, particularly in refractory courses. Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS), one of SD's most severe complications, is associated with further IL‐18 ...

Galectins, antibodies to them and galectin-3 binding protein in systemic lupus erythematosus
The study of galectins is provoked by the search for new biomarkers of activity, clinical manifestations, and disease outcomes of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The presented literature review summarizes the data on the most well-known galectins-1, -

Galectins: Important Regulators in Normal and Pathologic Pregnancies
Galectins (Gal) are characterized by their affinity for galactoside structures on glycoconjugates. This relationship is mediated by carbohydrate recognition domains, which are multifunctional regulators of basic cellular biological processes with high ...

Harnessing blood clot as a native scaffold for orchestrating tissue repairs and regeneration
The blood clot, owing to its dynamic composition and unique microenvironment, holds significant yet underappreciated potential for tissue engineering. This review systematically summarizes the pathophysiology of clot formation, the key regulatory factors shaping its microenvironment, and its applications in both pre‐clinical and clinical settings ...

Glycocalixarenes and their affinity to human galectins [PDF]
Calix[n]arenes are macrocyclic compounds synthesized by the oligomerisation of phenol and formaldehyde. They can have different numbers of phenol rings and can adopt various conformations. As they can be easily modified, they are widely used in many ways,

A proteomic investigation of forebrain regeneration in the leopard gecko (Eublepharis macularius)
Our investigation reveals ontogenetic, injury‐ and regeneration‐associated proteomic changes in the leopard gecko forebrain. Abstract Background The ability to replace lost or damaged neurons following an injury is termed reactive neurogenesis. Although reactive neurogenesis has been reported in several lizard species, the molecular mechanisms ...

Biomarkers of lung congestion and injury in acute heart failure
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) classification and management are primarily based on lung congestion and/or hypoperfusion. The quantification of the vascular and tissue lung damage is not standard practice though biomarkers of lung injury may play a relevant role in this context.

Roles of galectins in infection [PDF]
Galectins, which were first characterized in the mid-1970s, were assigned a role in the recognition of endogenous ('self') carbohydrate ligands in embryogenesis, development and immune regulation. Recently, however, galectins have been shown to bind glycans on the surface of potentially pathogenic microorganisms, and function as recognition and ...
