Rational Development of LEA29Y (belatacept), a High‐Affinity Variant of CTLA4‐Ig with Potent Immunosuppressive Properties

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Transplantation, 2005
Current success in organ transplantation is dependent upon the use of calcineurin‐inhibitor‐based immunosuppressive regimens. Unfortunately, current immunotherapy targets molecules with ubiquitous expression resulting in devastating non‐immune side ...

Mechanisms of IgE‐mediated food allergy and the role of allergen‐specific B cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Food allergy arises when allergen‐specific B cells preferentially produce immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies against harmless foods. This article explains the mechanisms driving IgE‐mediated reactions, highlights the central role of these B cells, and discusses how natural tolerance (NT) and oral immunotherapy (OIT) can reshape allergic immune responses.

Cytoplasmic p21 promotes stemness of colon cancer cells via activation of the NFκB pathway

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytoplasmic p21 promotes colorectal cancer stem cell (CSC) features by destabilizing the NFκB–IκB complex, activating NFκB signaling, and upregulating BCL‐xL and COX2. In contrast to nuclear p21, cytoplasmic p21 enhances spheroid formation and stemness transcription factor CD133.

Next‐generation proteomics improves lung cancer risk prediction

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This is one of very few studies that used prediagnostic blood samples from participants of two large population‐based cohorts. We identified, evaluated, and validated an innovative protein marker model that outperformed an established risk prediction model and criteria employed by low‐dose computed tomography in lung cancer screening trials.

IgE, IgE Receptors and Anti-IgE Biologics: Protein Structures and Mechanisms of Action

open access: yesAnnual Review of Immunology, 2023
The evolution of IgE in mammals added an extra layer of immune protection at body surfaces to provide a rapid and local response against antigens from the environment. The IgE immune response employs potent expulsive and inflammatory forces against local antigen provocation, at the risk of damaging host tissues and causing allergic disease.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

CONTAMINAÇÃO DE FLÚOR DOS AQÜÍFEROS DA BACIA DO PARANÁ DERIVADA DA DESGASEIFICAÇÃO DE INTRUSIVAS DA FORMAÇÃO SERRA GERAL: NOVA HIPÓTESE

open access: yesRevista Águas Subterrâneas, 2007
Nas seqüências sedimentares da Bacia do Paraná ocorre um enorme número de corpos intrusivos de rochas basálticas da Formação Serra Geral, individualmente com até dezenas de quilômetros quadrados de área e espessuras que ultrapassam 300 metros.

The Oleic/Linoleic Acid Ratio in Olive (Olea europaea L.) Fruit Mesocarp Is Mainly Controlled by OeFAD2-2 and OeFAD2-5 Genes Together With the Different Specificity of Extraplastidial Acyltransferase Enzymes

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Fatty acid composition of olive oil has an important effect on the oil quality to such an extent that oils with a high oleic and low linoleic acid contents are preferable from a nutritional and technological point of view.

The Astonishing Diversity of Ig Classes and B Cell Repertoires in Teleost Fish

open access: yesFront. Immun., 2013
With lymphoid tissue anatomy different than mammals, and diverse adaptations to all aquatic environments, fish constitute a fascinating group of vertebrate to study the biology of B cell repertoires in a comparative perspective.
