Evaluation of thrombomodulin and pentraxin-3 as diagnostic biomarkers in calves with sepsis

open access: yesVeterinární Medicína, 2018
Early diagnosis and treatment of sepsis in patients are crucial for their survival and can help reduce mortality rates. Novel biomarkers, such as thrombomodulin and pentraxin-3, have been used as diagnostic, prognostic and mortality indicators in ...

Pentraxins in Complement Activation and Regulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
The complement is the first line of immune defense system involved in elimination of invading pathogens and dying host cells. Its activation is mainly triggered by immune complexes or pattern recognition molecules (PRMs) upon recognition against non-self or altered self-cells, such as C1q, collectins, ficolins, and properdin.

Antibiotic‐mediated immune modulation in periodontitis

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Although initiated by dysbiotic microbial communities, its progression is largely driven by the host's uncontrolled inflammatory response. While antibiotics have conventionally been employed in periodontitis therapy for their antimicrobial ...

The long pentraxin PTX3 promotes fibrocyte differentiation.

open access: yes, 2015
Monocyte-derived, fibroblast-like cells called fibrocytes are associated with fibrotic lesions. The plasma protein serum amyloid P component (SAP; also known as pentraxin-2, PTX2) inhibits fibrocyte differentiation in vitro, and injections of SAP inhibit

Isolation and partial characterization of a pentraxin-like protein with complement-fixing activity from snapper (Pagrus auratus, Sparidae) serum

open access: yes, 2003
Pentraxin-like molecules have been isolated from a number of fish species. However, little is known about the function of these proteins in the teleosts.

The Maternal Blood Transcriptome Reflects Molecular Signatures Associated With Large Offspring Syndrome and Other Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes in Cattle

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 20, 31 October 2026.
Blood samples from pregnant heifers carrying in vitro‐produced embryos were analyzed for RNA‐sequencing to test whether maternal blood transcriptome could be predictive of large offspring syndrome, stillbirth, and abortion compared with controls.

Evolution of the Pentraxin Family: The New Entry PTX4

open access: yes, 2010
Pentraxins (PTXs) are a superfamily of multifunctional conserved proteins, some of which are components of the humoral arm of innate immunity and behave as functional ancestors of Abs.
