Molecular Mimicry between SARS-CoV-2 and Human Endocrinocytes: A Prerequisite of Post-COVID-19 Endocrine Autoimmunity?

open access: yesPathophysiology, 2022
Molecular mimicry between human and microbial/viral/parasite peptides is common and has long been associated with the etiology of autoimmune disorders provoked by exogenous pathogens.

Anti-Idiotypic Agonistic Antibodies: Candidates for the Role of Universal Remedy

open access: yesAntibodies, 2020
Anti-idiotypic antibodies (anti-IDs) were discovered at the very beginning of the 20th century and have attracted attention of researchers for many years. Nowadays, there are five known types of anti-IDs: α, β, γ, ε, and δ. Due to the ability of internal-

Post-COVID Endocrine Disorders: Putative Role of Molecular Mimicry and Some Pathomorphological Correlates

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
In order to identify corresponding amino acid sequences (pentapeptides) between the SPs, MPs and NPs of human coronaviruses and human autoantigens targeted in autoimmune endocrinopathies, and for a comparative analysis of the various coronaviruses ...

Early oseltamivir reduces risk for influenza-associated aspergillosis in a double-hit murine model

open access: yesVirulence, 2021
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is a life-threatening fungal infection occurring mainly in immunocompromised patients. We recently identified IPA as an emerging co-infection with high mortality in critically ill, but otherwise immunocompetent ...

Tile Number and Space-Efficient Knot Mosaics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper we introduce the concept of a space-efficient knot mosaic. That is, we seek to determine how to create knot mosaics using the least number of non-blank tiles necessary to depict the knot.
