BNIP3 supports melanoma cell migration and vasculogenic mimicry by orchestrating the actin cytoskeleton [PDF]

, 2014
BNIP3 is an atypical BH3-only member of the BCL-2 family of proteins with reported pro-death as well as pro-autophagic and cytoprotective functions, depending on the type of stress and cellular context.

Role of Mycobacterium paratuberculosis infection in etiopathogenesis of type 1 diabetes: A review of population-based studies

Journal of Diabetology, 2023
Introduction: Multiple mechanisms were proposed for the etiopathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). An interplay between genetic, environmental, and immunological factors leads to generate autoantibodies against glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 ...

Architecturally diverse proteins converge on an analogous mechanism to inactivate Uracil-DNA glycosylase [PDF]

, 2013
Uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) compromises the replication strategies of diverse viruses from unrelated lineages. Virally encoded proteins therefore exist to limit, inhibit or target UDG activity for proteolysis.

Molecular mimicry between Zika virus and central nervous system inflammatory demyelinating disorders: the role of NS5 Zika virus epitope and PLP autoantigens

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2023
Background Evidence indicates a strong link between Zika virus (ZikV) and neurological complications. Acute myelitis, optic neuritis, polyneuropathy, and encephalomyelitis that mimic inflammatory idiopathic demyelination disorders (IIDD) after ZikV ...

Autoimmune neurological conditions associated with Zika virus infection [PDF]

, 2018
Zika virus (ZIKV) is an emerging flavivirus rapidly spreading throughout the tropical Americas. mosquitoes is the principal way of transmission of the virus to humans. ZIKV can be spread by transplacental, perinatal, and body fluids.

miPepBase: A Database of Experimentally Verified Peptides Involved in Molecular Mimicry

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Autoimmune diseases emerge due to several reasons, of which molecular mimicry i.e., similarity between the host's and pathogen's interacting peptides is an important reason. In the present study we have reported a database of only experimentally verified

Visiting Molecular Mimicry Once More: Pathogenicity, Virulence, and Autoimmunity

Microorganisms, 2023
The concept of molecular mimicry describes situations in which antigen sharing between parasites and hosts could benefit pathogen evasion from host immune responses.

Guillain-Barré syndrome: a century of progress [PDF]

, 2016
In 1916, Guillain, Barré and Strohl reported on two cases of acute flaccid paralysis with high cerebrospinal fluid protein levels and normal cell counts — novel findings that identified the disease we now know as Guillain–Barré syndrome (GBS).

Structural basis for the inhibition of RecBCD by Gam and its synergistic antibacterial effect with quinolones [PDF]

, 2016
Our previous paper (Wilkinson et al, 2016) used high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy to solve the structure of the Escherichia coli RecBCD complex, which acts in both the repair of double-stranded DNA breaks and the degradation of bacteriophage DNA ...
