Characterization of the immunproteasome subunits LMP2 and LMP7 in the mouse brain
Die hier verfasste Dissertation beinhaltet eine Lokalisationsstudie sowie eine funktionelle Charakterisierung der katalytischen Untereinheiten LMP2 und LMP7 des Immunoproteasomes (IPs) im Gehirn der Maus. Das IP ist eine spezifische Form des Proteasoms, welches konstitutiv in Zellen des Immunsystems exprimiert wird und auf Grund seiner speziellen ...

The Immunoproteasome Subunits LMP2, LMP7 and MECL-1 Are Crucial Along the Induction of Cerebral Toxoplasmosis [PDF]
Cell survival and function critically relies on the fine-tuned balance of protein synthesis and degradation. In the steady state, the standard proteasome is sufficient to maintain this proteostasis.

The role of immunoproteasomes in modulating neuro‐inflammation in Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Abstract Background The immunoproteasome (IP) is the inducible form of the constitutive 20S proteasome upregulated in immune cells. The IP consists of 3 inducible β subunits (β1i – LMP2, β2i – MECL1, and β5i – LMP7), which generate MHC‐I compatible peptides.

IRF‐1 mediates upregulation of LMP7 by IFN‐γ and concerted expression of immunosubunits of the proteasome [PDF]
An immunoproteasome subunit low molecular weight protein 7 (LMP7) plays critical roles in major histocompatibility complex class I antigen processing; however, the mechanism for its expression has remained unclear. We demonstrate that interferon (IFN) regulatory factor‐1 (IRF‐1) has a pivotal role in IFN‐γ‐dependent LMP7 expression, as was shown for ...

Three-Dimensional Tumor Spheroids Reveal B7-H3 CAR T Cell Infiltration Dynamics and Microenvironment-Induced Functional Reprogramming in Solid Tumors [PDF]
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has demonstrated clinical success in hematologic malignancies but has limited efficacy in solid tumors due to tumor microenvironment (TME) barriers that impede CAR T cell recognition, infiltration, and ...

Evidence of Immunoproteasome Expression Onset in the Formative State of Pluripotency in Mouse Cells [PDF]
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are remarkable for the high activity level of ubiquitin–proteasome system—the molecular machinery of protein degradation in the cell.

Proteasomes recognize and degrade poly-ubiquitinylated proteins. In infectious disease, cells activated by interferons (IFNs) express three unique catalytic subunits β1i/LMP2, β2i/MECL-1 and β5i/LMP7 forming an alternative proteasome isoform, the ...
