The Effect of Atopic Dermatitis and Diet on the Skin Transcriptome in Staffordshire Bull Terriers
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020 Canine atopic dermatitis (CAD) has a hereditary basis that is modified by interactions with the environment, including diet. Differentially expressed genes in non-lesional skin, determined by RNA sequencing before and after a dietary intervention, were ...

Potential immunosuppressive effects of Escherichia coli O157:H7 experimental infection on the bovine host [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), like E. coli O157:H7 are frequently detected in bovine faecal samples at slaughter. Cattle do not show clinical symptoms upon infection, but for humans the consequences after consuming contaminated ...

Editing of mouse and human immunoglobulin genes by CRISPR-Cas9 system
Nature Communications, 2016 CRISPR-Cas9 has been used to generate a range of genetic modifications including gene knock-outs and chromosomal rearrangements. Here the authors target the immunogloblin genes and demonstrate the induction of class switch recombination, opening up ...

Identification of novel molecular signatures of IgA nephropathy through an integrative -omics analysis [PDF]
, 2017 IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent among primary glomerular diseases worldwide. Although our understanding of IgAN has advanced significantly, its underlying biology and potential drug targets are still unexplored.

Expression of the Thyroid Hormone Receptor Gene, erbAα, in B Lymphocytes: Alternative mRNA Processing is Independent of Differentiation but Correlates with Antisense RNA Levels [PDF]
, 1997 The erbAα gene encodes two α-thyroid hormone receptor isoforms, TRα1 and TRα2, which arise from alternatively processed mRNAs, erbAα1 (α1) and erb α2 (α2).

A lesson for cancer research : placental microarray gene analysis in preeclampsia [PDF]
, 2012 Tumor progression and pregnancy share many common features, such as immune tolerance and invasion. The invasion of trophoblasts in the placenta into the uterine wall is essential for fetal development, and is thus precisely regulated.

Functional Versatility of AGY Serine Codons in Immunoglobulin Variable Region Genes
Frontiers in Immunology, 2016 In systemic autoimmunity, autoantibodies directed against nuclear antigens (Ag) often arise by somatic hypermutation (SHM) that converts AGT and AGC (AGY) Ser codons into Arg codons. This can occur by three different single-base changes. Curiously, AGY

A Proposed New Nomenclature for the Immunoglobulin Genes of Mus musculus
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 Mammalian immunoglobulin (IG) genes are found in complex loci that contain hundreds of highly similar pseudogenes, functional genes and repetitive elements, which has made their investigation particularly challenging.
