Protease mimicry: Dissecting the ester bond crosslinking mechanics in bacterial adhesin proteins
Abstract The ester bond crosslink discovered within bacterial adhesin proteins offers a captivating insight into the convergent evolution of enzyme‐like machinery. Crystal structures reveal a putative catalytic triad comprising an acid–base–nucleophile combination and an oxyanion‐like site that suggests a serine protease‐like mechanism drives the ...

Abstract Objective To evaluate the responsiveness of T cells from newly diagnosed multiple sclerosis (MS) patients to CD46 co‐stimulation, a membrane co‐factor protein potentially involved in MS pathogenesis. Methods T cells from MS patients and non‐diseased symptomatic controls (SC) were activated in vitro with or without αCD46 antibody co‐stimulation.

Torque teno virus as a marker of immune status in immunocompromised patients: A systematic review
Abstract Background Torque teno virus (TTV) is not known to cause disease in humans; however, chronic inflammatory conditions and immunosuppression states can favour TTV replication. This study aimed to verify the effectiveness of TTV as an immune biomarker.

ABSTRACT Psoriasis (PS) is a chronic autoimmune skin disease that poses a serious threat to over 100 million patients worldwide. An increasing number of studies have indicated that keratinocytes (KCs) play an essential role in the inflammatory progression of PS. The present study found that tumour necrosis factor superfamily member 14 (TNFSF14) and its
