Molecular mimicry, genetic homology, and gene sharing proteomic “molecular fingerprints” using an EBV (Epstein-Barr virus)-derived microarray as a potential diagnostic method in autoimmune disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
EBV (Epstein-Barr Virus) and other human DNA viruses are associated with autoimmune syndromes in epidemiologic studies. In this work, immunoglobulin G response to EBV-encoded proteins which share regions with human immune response proteins from the human

SARS-CoV-2-Induced Immunosuppression: A Molecular Mimicry Syndrome

open access: yesGlobal Medical Genetics, 2022
Background Contrary to immunological expectations, decay of adaptive responses against severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) characterizes recovered patients compared with patients who had a severe disease course or died following ...

SARS-CoV-2 and Guillain-Barré syndrome: molecular mimicry with human heat shock proteins as potential pathogenic mechanism

open access: yesCell stress & chaperones (Print), 2020
Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus 2 infection has been associated with Guillain-Barré syndrome. We investigated here the potential mechanism underlying the virus-induced damage of the peripheral nervous systems by searching the viral ...

A comparative study of the function of heterospecific vocal mimicry in European passerines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Although heterospecific vocal imitation is well documented in passerines, the evolutionary correlates of this phenomenon are poorly known. Here, we studied interspecific variation in vocal mimicry in a comparative study of 241 European songbirds.

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Human molecular chaperones share with SARS-CoV-2 antigenic epitopes potentially capable of eliciting autoimmunity against endothelial cells: possible role of molecular mimicry in COVID-19

open access: yesCell stress & chaperones (Print), 2020
Severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the cause of COVID-19 disease, has the potential to elicit autoimmunity because mimicry of human molecular chaperones by viral proteins.

Carbohydrate Mimetic Peptides for Pan Anti-Tumor Responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
Molecular mimicry is fundamental to biology which transcends to many disciplines ranging from immune pathology to drug design. Structural characterization of molecular partners has provided insight into the origins and relative importance of ...

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

open access: yesArquivos 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 ...

Tumor angiogenesis and anti-angiogenic therapy in malignant gliomas revisited [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The cellular and molecular mechanisms of tumor angiogenesis and its prospects for anti-angiogenic cancer therapy are major issues in almost all current concepts of both cancer biology and targeted cancer therapy. Currently, (1) sprouting angiogenesis, (2)
