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 ...

ObjectiveThe Wnt/ß-catenin pathway plays an important role in pathogenesis of variety cancers. Most studies on changes in WNT/β-catenin pathway in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) apply only to clear cell RCC, while there are no comparative assessments of this

Post-transcriptional and epigenetic regulation of antigen processing machinery (APM) components and HLA-I in cervical cancers from Uighur women. [PDF]
Normal function of human leukocyte antigen class I (HLA-I) and antigen processing machinery (APM) proteins is required for T cell-mediated anti-tumor or antiviral immunity, whereas the tumor survival indicates a failure of the host in immune surveillance

Immunoproteasome subunit LMP7-deficiency in initiation and progression of atherosclerosis
Die Atherosklerose ist eine chronisch entzündliche Gefäßerkrankung, die erheblich zur globalen Morbidität und Mortalität beiträgt. Die Atherogenese geht mit einer Dysregulation des Ubiquitin-Proteasom-Systems (UPS) einher.

The proteasome is a major protein degradation machinery with essential and diverse biological functions. Upon induction by cytokines, proteasome subunits β1, β2, and β5 are replaced by β1i/LMP2, β2i/MECL-1, and β5i/LMP7, resulting in the formation of an ...

Denervation-Induced Activation of the Standard Proteasome and Immunoproteasome. [PDF]
The standard 26S proteasome is responsible for the majority of myofibrillar protein degradation leading to muscle atrophy. The immunoproteasome is an inducible form of the proteasome.

Association of LMP/TAP gene polymorphisms with tuberculosis susceptibility in Li population in China. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious disease affected by multiple genetic and environmental factors. Several association studies have suggested that cellular immune response is vital for controlling and preventing of tuberculosis infection.

On the Role of the Immunoproteasome in Protein Homeostasis
Numerous cellular processes are controlled by the proteasome, a multicatalytic protease in the cytosol and nucleus of all eukaryotic cells, through regulated protein degradation.
