Revealing and quantifying polyclonal anti-A, B specificity in ABO histo-blood groups. [PDF]

Transfusion
Abstract Background The clinically significant antibody anti‐A,B together with anti‐A and anti‐B has been known for many decades to be present in blood group O plasma. As anti‐A,B is only reactive when an A or B antigen is present, its contribution to titer cannot be easily distinguished from anti‐A and/or anti‐B.

Immune Imprinting Drives Human Norovirus Potential for Global Spread

mBio, 2022
Understanding the complex interactions between virus and host that drive new strain evolution is key to predicting the emergence potential of variants and informing vaccine development. Under our hypothesis, future dominant human norovirus GII.4 variants

Norovirus and Histo-Blood Group Antigens

Japanese Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2011
Norovirus (NoV), a member of the family Caliciviridae, is a major cause of acute water- and food-borne nonbacterial gastroenteritis and forms antigenically diverse groups of viruses. Human NoVs are divided into at least three genogroups, genogroups I (GI), GII, and GIV, which contain at least 15, 18, and 1 genotypes, respectively.

Specific Interactions between Human Norovirus and Environmental Matrices: Effects on the Virus Ecology

Viruses, 2019
Human norovirus is the major cause of non-bacterial epidemic gastroenteritis. Human norovirus binds to environmental solids via specific and non-specific interactions, and several specific receptors for human norovirus have been reported.

Histo-Blood Group Antigens: the Potential Receptor for the Rotaviruses [PDF]

SCIENTIA SINICA Vitae, 2015
Rotaviruses (RVs) are one of the most important pathogens for the viral gastroenteritis in human and animals. It is reported that histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) may be the receptors and/or attachment factors for the RVs. HBGAs are highly polymorphic including ABO, secretor, and Lewis antigens.

Plasmepsins as Antimalarial Drug Targets—Then, Now, and the Future

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malaria is a devastating disease caused by Plasmodium parasites. Plasmodium parasites express ten cathepsin D‐like aspartyl proteases, called plasmepsins (PMs). These PMs have diverse roles fulfill diverse functions throughout the parasite's lifecycle, though several exhibit functional redundancies. Among them, PMV, PMIV, and PMX are essential

Low Levels of Natural Anti-α-N-Acetylgalactosamine (Tn) Antibodies Are Associated With COVID-19

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Human serum contains large amounts of anti-carbohydrate antibodies, some of which may recognize epitopes on viral glycans. Here, we tested the hypothesis that such antibodies may confer protection against COVID-19 so that patients would be preferentially

Mechanisms underlying the protective effects of San‐Bai decoction against UV radiation on the skin

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Combining conventional differential expression analysis with differential network analysis offers a promising strategy to uncover the mechanistic basis of the holistic benefits provided by herbal blends. Our findings demonstrated that San‐Bai decoction modulates multiple pathways—not only those related to skin pigmentation, such as ET‐1 signalling, but

No association between histo-blood group antigens and susceptibility to clinical infections with genogroup II norovirus [PDF]

, 2008
Noroviruses (NoVs) are a leading cause of viral gastroenteritis in humans. In the present study, the association between NoV susceptibility and the ABO histo-blood group was studied during 2 outbreaks of acute gastroenteritis in military units in Israel ...
