Sterile Inflammation of Brain, due to Activation of Innate Immunity, as a Culprit in Psychiatric Disorders

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2018
Evidence has accumulated that the occurrence of psychiatric disorders is related to chronic inflammation. In support of this linkage, changes in the levels of circulating pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines in the peripheral blood (PB) of ...

Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.

Differential activity of a lectin from Solieria filiformis against human pathogenic bacteria

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2005
A lectin isolated from the red alga Solieria filiformis was evaluated for its effect on the growth of 8 gram-negative and 3 gram-positive bacteria cultivated in liquid medium (three independent experiments/bacterium).

Complement lectin pathway components MBL and MASP-1 promote haemostasis upon vessel injury in a microvascular bleeding model

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundComplement lectin pathway components, in particular mannan-binding lectin (MBL) and MBL-associated serine proteases (MASPs) have been shown to interact with coagulation factors and contribute to clot formation.

High glucose disrupts oligosaccharide recognition function via competitive inhibition : a potential mechanism for immune dysregulation in diabetes mellitus [PDF]

, 2011
Diabetic complications include infection and cardiovascular disease. Within the immune system, host-pathogen and regulatory host-host interactions operate through binding of oligosaccharides by C-type lectin.

Crosstalk Between Intratumoral Microbes and Tumor Immunity: Implications for Tumor Therapy

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Emerging studies indicate that microbes are present in tumor cells and immune cells. Intratumoral microbiota (ITM) constitute an important component of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and have an important impact on tumor progression and treatment. Objective Through the general elaboration of ITM represented by bacteria and

Activation of complement system by mannan pathway and Mbl2 genotypes in patients with type 2 diabetes and nephropathy

Zdravniški Vestnik, 2014
To add new evidence that complement activation by the mannan (lectin) pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes, we collected blood and urine samples from 20 patients with type 2 diabetes and nephropathy and ...

Mannan-binding lectin regulates dendritic cell maturation and cytokine production induced by lipopolysaccharide

BMC Immunology, 2011
Background Mannan-binding lectin (MBL) is a pattern-recognition molecule present in serum, which is involved in the innate immune defense by activating complement and promoting opsonophagocytosis. Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen presenting

EIF4A3‐Induced Circular RNA circSnd1 Promotes Muscle Atrophy and Muscle Ageing by Stabilizing EEF1A1

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle atrophy is a common complication of ageing, and many chronic conditions, lacks defined therapeutic interventions. It is still mostly unknown how circular RNAs contribute to muscle atrophy. Methods circRNA sequencing and quantitative real‐time PCR were performed to detect the changed circRNAs in muscle atrophy models and aged ...
