Role of Immunoproteasomes in Cross-Presentation [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Journal of Immunology, 2006
Abstract The evidence that proteasomes are involved in the processing of cross-presented proteins is indirect and based on the in vitro use of proteasome inhibitors. It remains, therefore, unclear whether cross-presentation of MHC class I peptide epitopes can occur entirely within phagolysosomes or whether it requires proteasome ...

Pathogenic roles of immunoproteasomes in fibrosis. [PDF]

open access: yesEssays Biochem
The 26S proteasome is a multi-subunit protease complex that degrades most eukaryotic cellular proteins. It not only regulates individual protein’s half-lives but also maintains proteome homeostasis and modulates immunological responses. During conditions involving large-scale proteome remodeling, such as fibrosis and cellular differentiation, the 26S ...

Inhibition of the immunoproteasome modulates innate immunity to ameliorate muscle pathology of dysferlin-deficient BlAJ mice

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2022
Muscle repair in dysferlinopathies is defective. Although macrophage (Mø)-rich infiltrates are prominent in damaged skeletal muscles of patients with dysferlinopathy, the contribution of the immune system to the disease pathology remains to be fully ...

Suppression of prostate cancer and amelioration of the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment through selective immunoproteasome inhibition

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2023
New treatment options to battle hormone-refractory prostate carcinoma (PC) are a pressing medical need. Chronic inflammation has been implicated in PC etiology.

Deficient immunoproteasome assembly drives gain of α-synuclein pathology in Parkinson's disease

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2021
Aberrant α-synuclein (α-Syn) accumulation resulting from proteasome dysfunction is considered as a prominent factor to initiate and aggravate the neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD).

Co-Inhibition of the Immunoproteasome Subunits LMP2 and LMP7 Ameliorates Immune Thrombocytopenia

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
The immunoproteasome, a special isoform of the 20S proteasome, is expressed when the cells receive an inflammatory signal. Immunoproteasome inhibition proved efficacy in the treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Cryo-EM of mammalian PA28αβ-iCP immunoproteasome reveals a distinct mechanism of proteasome activation by PA28αβ

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The proteasome activator PA28αβ affects MHC class I antigen presentation by associating with immunoproteasome core particles (iCPs). Cryo-EM structures of the mammalian PA28αβ -iCP immunoproteasome and free iCP, combined with cross-linking data, reveal ...
