ZONA PELLUCIDA GLYCOPROTEINS [PDF]

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 1988
All mammalian eggs are surrounded by a relatively thick extracellular coat, the zona pellucida, that plays vital roles during oogenesis, fertilization, and preimplantation development. The mouse zona pellucida consists of three glycoproteins that are synthesized solely by growing oocytes and assemble into long fibrils that constitute a matrix.

Human Cytomegalovirus glycoprotein UL16 causes intracellular sequestration of NKG2D ligands, protecting against NK cell cytotoxicity. [PDF]

, 2003
The activating receptor, NKG2D, is expressed on a variety of immune effector cells and recognizes divergent families of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related ligands, including the MIC and ULBP proteins.

Leukocyte adhesion - a fundamental process in leukocyte physiology

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999
Leukocyte adhesion is of pivotal functional importance. The adhesion involves several different adhesion molecules, the most important of which are the leukocyte ß2-integrins (CD11/CD18), the intercellular adhesion molecules, and the selectins.

Comparative Analysis of Choroid Plexus Volume Between MOG Antibody Associated Disease and Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Choroid plexus volume (CPV) has been proposed as a neuro‐immunological marker of multiple sclerosis (MS), but its relevance in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease (MOGAD) remains uncertain. We analyzed CPV in 43 individuals with MOGAD, 48 with MS, and 44 healthy controls using a Bayesian Gaussian mixture modeling ...

Evidence that natural killer cells express mini P-glycoproteins but not classic 170 kDa P-glycoprotein

, 2001
Several lines of evidence including reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, immunoreactivity and their ability to efflux rhodamine 123 have implied the existence of P-glycoprotein in natural killer (NK) cells.

“Low‐Positive” MOG‐IgG Cases Among Adults With a First Event Suggestive of Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the prevalence and clinical characteristics of patients with “low‐positive” (LP) MOG‐IgG (titres 1:160–1:320) among adults with a first demyelinating event (FDE) suggestive of multiple sclerosis (MS). Methods From the Barcelona CIS inception cohort, we included adult patients with serum collected ≤ 6 months from the FDE.

Differential site accessibility mechanistically explains subcellular-specific N-glycosylation determinants

Frontiers in Immunology, 2014
Glycoproteins perform extra- and intracellular functions in innate and adaptive immunity by lectin-based interactions to exposed glyco-determinants. Herein, we document and mechanistically explain the formation of subcellular-specific N-glycosylation ...

Evaluation of Dried Plasma Spot‐Based Quantification of Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein as a Disease‐Associated Biomarker in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) measured in dried plasma spots versus conventional plasma‐ and serum‐GFAP testing for assessment of disease severity in aquaporin‐4 immunoglobulin G–positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4‐IgG+ NMOSD).

Investigation of Complement Activation and Cytokine Signatures in AQP4+ NMOSD, MOGAD, and MS

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Aquaporin‐4‐IgG seropositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4+ NMOSD), myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody‐associated disease (MOGAD), and multiple sclerosis (MS) are pathophysiologically distinct neuroinflammatory disorders. Complement activation is a major mechanism of injury in AQP4+ NMOSD, whereas its role in
