Origin and evolution of TRIM proteins: new insights from the complete TRIM repertoire of zebrafish and pufferfish [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Tripartite motif proteins (TRIM) constitute a large family of proteins containing a RING-Bbox-Coiled Coil motif followed by different C-terminal domains. Involved in ubiquitination, TRIM proteins participate in many cellular processes including antiviral

A Prospective Study of Individuals at Risk of Multiple Sclerosis Informs the Design of Primary Prevention Studies

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective In multiple sclerosis, the optimal time for deploying a therapeutic intervention is before the central nervous system is damaged; given the success of trials treating the earliest stage of MS, the radiologically isolated syndrome, developing primary prevention strategies is an important next challenge.

Innate Immune Reprogramming Mediated by Endogenous Retroelement Dysregulation Drives Multiple Sclerosis Progression

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Epigenetic reprogramming in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and downstream myeloid cells, mediated by H3.3 downregulation and endogenous retroelement (ERE) overexpression, contributes to the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS). ABSTRACT Background Skewed myelopoiesis in the bone marrow has been identified as a key driver of multiple ...

The porcine Major Histocompatibility Complex and related paralogous regions: a review

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2000
The physical alignment of the entire region of the pig major histocompatibility complex (MHC) has been almost completed. In swine, the MHC is called the SLA (swine leukocyte antigen) and most of its class I region has been sequenced.

From Adult to Adolescent: Alignment in Clinical Trials and Outcomes in Axial Spondyloarthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is a group of chronic inflammatory diseases encompassing axial and peripheral forms, with up to 20% of patients developing symptoms before age 16. Despite this substantial pediatric burden, treatment options for juvenile‐onset SpA (JSpA), particularly those with axial disease (axJSpA), remain limited.

The isolation and characterisation of MHC-presented peptides from CML-derived cell-lines, with a focus on post-translational modification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Phosphorylation is a key regulator of protein function and activity, and aberrant kinase activity is implicated in a wide range of malignancies, of which the bcr:abl fusion kinase found in chronic myeloid leukaemia is a classic example.

Bayesian phylogenetic tree of MHC class II A genes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The fish MHC class II A sequence (Onmy-DAA; AFP94173) is used as an outgroup. A bracket on the right shows the DAA gene lineage of the MHC genes from Crocodylia identified in the current study and previous publications as described in Materials and ...

The CCR4-NOT complex contributes to repression of Major Histocompatibility Complex class II transcription

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The multi-subunit CCR4 (carbon catabolite repressor 4)-NOT (Negative on TATA) complex serves as a central coordinator of all different steps of eukaryotic gene expression.

Artery‐on‐Chip Demonstrates Mechanical and Functional Features of Healthy and Diseased Living Smooth Muscle Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This article details the development of an artery‐on‐chip platform for in vitro arterial disease modeling and therapeutic discovery. It describes the fabrication of a fibrin biomaterial scaffold seeded with iPSC‐derived smooth muscle and endothelial cells, mimicking native artery properties. Two genetic disease models showcase the platform's ability to

Evolution of MHC diversity in cetacean species environment: implications for the role of a pathogen [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Previous studies have indicated that the evolution of diversity in the immune system genes responsible for antigen presentation in terrestrial mammals is driven by selection.
