Gram‐Scale Production of Iron Oxide Rubik‐Cube Nanoparticles: New Tools for the Clinical Translation of Magnetic Hyperthermia and Magnetic Particle Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work reports the first gram‐scale solvothermal synthesis of ‘Rubik's cube’ nanoparticles—cubic, dendritic multicore structures with tuneable sizes and exceptional magnetic heating performance. Featuring iron oxide single‐domain character, with low coercivity fields, high magnetization, and strong MPI signals, they enable viscosity‐independent ...

Concordance rate between oligoclonal bands and the Kappa index in patients with suspected multiple sclerosis (MS)

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
Background Oligoclonal bands (OCBs) and Kappa free light chains (FLCs) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are sensitive markers of intrathecal immunoglobulin (Ig)G synthesis in patients with multiple sclerosis.

Evidence for somatic selection of natural autoantibodies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Natural autoantibodies are primarily immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies that bind to a variety of self-antigens, including self-IgG. Accounting for a large proportion of the early B cell repertoire, such polyspecific autoantibodies are speculated to ...

Laser‐Welded Cellulose‐Carbon Nanotube Nanocomposites as a 3D Scaffold of Si Anodes for High‐Performance Lithium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A Si anode comprising entangled networks of cellulose and SWCNT (C‐CNT) nanocomposites as an anode electrode for a high‐performance LIB is realized by fully utilizing the generated microstructure of a novel conductive 3D scaffold via a low‐temperature and eco‐friendly process. Additionally, localized heating via photo‐thermal conversion can be utilized

Immunoglobulin Free Light Chains in the Pathogenesis of Lung Disorders

open access: yesIranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2017
Inflammation is an important component of numerous cancers and chronic diseases and many inflammatory mediators have been shown to have potential prognostic roles. Tumor-infiltrating mast cells can promote tumor growth and angiogenesis, but the mechanism

Immunoglobulin free light chains are increased in hypersensitivity pneumonitis and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a devastating lung disorder of unknown aetiology, and chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), a disease provoked by an immunopathologic reaction to inhaled antigens, are two common interstitial lung ...

PROPERTIES OF HALVES OF IMMUNOGLOBULIN LIGHT CHAINS [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1969
Light polypeptide chains from both normal human γG immunoglobulin and Bence-Jones proteins can be cleaved into halves by limited proteolysis with trypsin, pepsin, or papain. The fragments were obtained in yields of up to 22 per cent, had molecular weights of 10,000 to 11,000, and were shown by amino acid analysis and antigenic analysis to correspond to

Multiple Myeloma : an update on disease biology and therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Multiple myeloma is a malignancy of immunoglobulin producing plasma cells. Clinical features include bone pain due to lytic bone lesions or pathological fractures, anemia, symptomatic hypercalcemia, renal insufficiency, recurrent infections and ...

Variable domain N-linked glycosylation and negative surface charge are key features of monoclonal ACPA: implications for B-cell selection

open access: yes, 2018
Autoreactive B cells have a central role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and recent findings have proposed that anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies (ACPA) may be directly pathogenic.

Self‐Feeding of Engineered Tissues via Controlled Glucose Release Facilitates Survival and Vascularization of Living Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Engineering living matter has great clinical potential to deliver functional replacement organs. However, clinical translation remains hampered by the current inability to maintain viability of clinically relevant‐sized constructs. During the pre‐vascular phase, implants rely on nutrient diffusion for survival, which is insufficient at ...
