Mannose-binding lectin binds IgM to activate the lectin complement pathway in vitro and in vivo
Recent evidence has implicated a role for the MBL-dependent lectin pathway in gastrointestinal and myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced injury. However, previous studies have implicated IgM and the classical pathway as initiators of complement activation following I/R. Thus, we investigated the potential interaction between MBL and IgM leading

Targeting MAN1B1 potently enhances bladder cancer antitumor immunity via deglycosylation of CD47
Abstract Background Only a few bladder cancer patients benefit from anti‐programmed cell death protein 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 immunotherapy. The cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) plays an important role in tumor immune evasion. CD47 is a highly glycosylated protein, however, the mechanisms governing CD47 glycosylation and its potential ...

ABSTRACT Cells have an intrinsic ability to rapidly respond to environmental change to regulate cell cycle progression and membrane organisation, thereby affecting cell growth and division. The actin cytoskeleton is a highly dynamic complex of proteins that can rapidly reorganise to change the growth pattern of a cell.

Pathways-driven Sparse Regression Identifies Pathways and Genes Associated with High-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol in Two Asian Cohorts [PDF]
Standard approaches to analysing data in genome-wide association studies (GWAS) ignore any potential functional relationships between genetic markers. In contrast gene pathways analysis uses prior information on functional structure within the genome to identify pathways associated with a trait of interest. In a second step, important single nucleotide

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are widely used in biomedicine, electronics, catalysis, and environmental science. Conventional synthesis relies on harsh chemicals, driving interest in eco‐friendly methods using plants, bacteria, fungi, and algae. Biomolecules like polyphenols, proteins, and fatty acids aid nanoparticle synthesis under mild conditions. This

Riliprubart is a second‐generation, humanized immunoglobulin G4 that inhibits only the activated form of the C1s component of the proximal classical complement pathway. The clinical studies of riliprubart conducted thus far for the treatment of cold agglutinin disease (CAD), a rare autoimmune disease, include a Phase 1 first‐in‐human study in healthy ...
