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.

Macrophage polarization and inflammation are key factors for the onset and progression of atherosclerosis. The immunoproteasome complex consists of three inducible catalytic subunits (LMP2, LMP10, and LMP7) that play a critical role in the regulation of ...

Tissue‐specific up‐regulation of the proteasome subunit β5i (LMP7) in Sjögren's syndrome [PDF]
AbstractObjectiveSjögren's syndrome (SS) is characterized by autoimmune infiltration and focal accumulation of lymphocytes in the exocrine glands, with a predominance of CD4‐positive T cells. Since these histologic findings are nonspecific, determination of clinical and serologic abnormalities contribute to the diagnosis.

Immunoproteasome deficiency modifies the alternative pathway of NFκB signaling. [PDF]
Immunoproteasome is a protease abundant in immune cells and also present, albeit at lower concentrations, in cells outside the immune system. Recent evidence supports a novel role for the immunoproteasome in the cellular stress response potentially ...

Aberrant SUMOylation Restricts the Targetable Cancer Immunopeptidome
Pharmacological SUMOylation inhibition (SUMOi) counteracts tumor immune evasion by unmasking an immunogenic HLA‐I peptide and neoepitope repertoire. By restoring HLA‐I ligand availability through increased antigen processing and presentation, enhanced proteasomal cleavage, and modulated TAP1 peptide affinity, SUMOi boosts tumor immunogenicity ...
