Background Disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB) after a stroke can lead to brain injury and neurological impairment. Previous work confirmed the involvement of the immunoproteasome subunit of low molecular mass peptide 2 (LMP2) in the ...

Immunoproteasome overexpression underlies the pathogenesis of thyroid oncocytes and primary hypothyroidism: studies in humans and mice. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Oncocytes of the thyroid gland (Hürthle cells) are found in tumors and autoimmune diseases. They have a unique appearance characterized by abundant granular eosinophilic cytoplasm and hyperchromatic nucleus.

LMP2 polymorphisms and spondyloarthropathies [PDF]
Dr Hohler and colleagues1 have examined LMP2 polymorphisms and extraspinal manifestations in spondyloarthropathies arriving at the conclusion that there is no independent association between LMP2 genotypes and the occurrence of uveitis in HLA-B27 positive subjects when stratified for HLA DR.

Association between plasma immunoproteasome and 90-day prognosis after first-ever ischemic stroke
Many blood biomarkers are reportedly helpful for predicting post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI), but no biomarkers are widely used in clinical practice.

The proteasome system in infection: impact of β5 and LMP7 on composition, maturation and quantity of active proteasome complexes. [PDF]
Proteasomes are the major enzyme complexes for non-lysosomal protein degradation in eukaryotic cells. Mammals express two sets of catalytic subunits: the constitutive subunits β1, β2 and β5 and the immunosubunits LMP2 (β1i), MECL-1 (β2i) and LMP7 (β5i ...

Investigating AKT activation and autophagy in immunoproteasome-deficient retinal cells.
Two major proteolytic systems, the proteasome and the autophagy pathway, are key components of the proteostasis network. The immunoproteasome, a proteasome subtype, and autophagy are upregulated under stress conditions, forming a coordinated unit ...

Contribution of Antigen-Processing Machinery Genetic Polymorphisms to Atopic Dermatitis
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic and recurrent inflammatory dermatosis. We recently described an association of the C allele of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs26618 in the ERAP1 gene and a synergism of ERAP1 and ERAP2 effects on AD risk ...

LMP2 immunoproteasome promotes lymphocyte survival by degrading apoptotic BH3-only proteins [PDF]
The role of the immunoproteasome is perceived as confined to adaptive immune responses given its ability to produce peptides ideal for MHC Class‐I binding.
