Proteolysis by Granzyme B Enhances Presentation of Autoantigenic Peptidylarginine Deiminase 4 Epitopes in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yes, 2017
Proteolysis of autoantigens can alter normal MHC class II antigen processing and has been implicated in the induction of autoimmune diseases. Many autoantigens are substrates for the protease granzyme B (GrB), but the mechanistic significance of this ...

Neutrophil extracellular traps and peptidylarginine deiminase 4-mediated inflammasome activation link diabetes to cardiorenal injury and heart failure

open access: yes
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Diabetes is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular and renal disease. This study investigated the role of peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4), neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), and inflammasome activation in diabetic ...

Meta-analysis: diagnostic accuracy of antibody against peptidylarginine deiminase 4 by ELISA for rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yes, 2017
The antibody against peptidylarginine deiminase (PAD) 4 is a biomarker that might be helpful in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We aim to estimate the diagnostic value of anti-PAD4 antibody for RA by meta-analysis. We searched PubMed, Embase,

Neutrophil extracellular traps in the animal model of adenine-induced chronic kidney disease.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are suggested to play a role in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Whether they are indeed involved in the pathogenesis of animal models of CKD has not been proved.

Functional Characterization of Calcium Binding Sites 3, 4, 5 in Peptidylarginine Deiminase type 4

open access: yes, 2014
胜肽精胺酸去亞胺酶 (Peptidylarginine deiminase)是一種後轉譯修飾的酵素,在有鈣離子的情況下可以將蛋白質上的精胺酸 (arginine)轉變為瓜胺酸 (citrulline),胜肽精胺酸去亞胺酶總共有五種異構型 (isoforms),其中第四型胜肽精胺酸去亞胺酶近年來被認為是偵測類風濕性關節炎的重要因子。到目前為止,只有第四型胜肽精胺酸去亞胺酶的結構被結晶出來,從蛋白結構中可以知道第四型胜肽精胺酸去亞胺酶有五個鈣離子的結合位,分別為將這些鈣離子簡稱為Ca1、Ca2、Ca3 ...
