Modulation of apoprotein E secretion in response to receptor-mediated endocytosis in resident and inflammatory macrophages. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
We have determined the effect of various endocytic ligands on the secretion of ApoE by macrophages. ApoE was a major secreted protein of resident macrophages, but BCG-activated macrophages secreted little ApoE and periodate-elicited macrophages secreted ...

Legumain Restrains Granuloma Formation by Inhibiting mTORC1/STAT1‐Mediated M1 Macrophage Polarization in Sarcoidosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Legumain (LGMN) is upregulated in macrophages during sarcoid‑like granuloma formation. Macrophage‑derived LGMN binds to integrin αvβ3 and suppresses mTORC1/STAT1 signaling to restrain M1 macrophage polarization. Intratracheal delivery of lipid nanoparticles carrying Lgmn plasmid DNA (pDNA) elevates LGMN expression and effectively attenuates pulmonary ...

Distinct plasmablast developmental intermediates produce graded expression of IgM secretory transcripts

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Differentiation into plasma cells (PCs) enables secretion of ∼10,000 immunoglobulin molecules per second. This extraordinary capacity requires the upregulation of PC transcriptional determinants that specify PC fate, increase immunoglobulin mRNA

Effect of N-acetylcysteine on mucosal immunity of respiratory tract [PDF]

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2018
The outcome of diseases accompanied or caused by mucostasis depends both on the restoration of drainage function of the airways and on the effectiveness of immune mechanisms against pathogens.

Profiling Localized Immunomodulation and Drug Biodistribution within a Subcutaneous Vascularized Niche for Cell Transplantation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We studied how five common immunosuppressants behave when delivered directly to a transplant site instead of systemically. Using a vascularized implant for islet transplantation, we show that local delivery protects grafts, limits drug spread to the rest of the body, and produces distinct immune signatures.

Prevalence and association of sIgA in saliva and Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in TB patients: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesTürk Biyokimya Dergisi, 2023
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is pathogenic in immunocompromised individuals. It has several complex mechanisms for evading human immunity. The objective of the study was to examine the secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) mediated immune response in saliva to ...

The Trichinella Super‐Pangenome Reveals the Evolution of Encapsulation and Predicted Host–Parasite Protein Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The muscle capsule of Trichinella is a critical structure that impedes immune attacks and drug penetration, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its formation remain poorly understood. Using a high‐quality super‐pangenome comprising 12 Trichinella species, we compared extensive genomic variations between encapsulating and non‐encapsulating ...

HYPEROXALURIA AND BIOMARKERS OF MUCOSAL IMMUNITY IN PATIENTS WITH RECURRENT PYELONEPHRITIS

open access: yesУкраїнський Журнал Нефрології та Діалізу, 2014
Summary: The aim of our study was to compare the performance of mucosal immunity in urine and saliva of patients with chronic recurrent pyelonephritis subject to availability of hyperoxaluria. Material and methods.

Endogenous mammalian lectin localized extracellularly in lung elastic fibers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
An affinity-purified antibody preparation raised against a beta-galactoside-binding lectin from bovine lung was used to localize a similar lectin in rat lung by immunofluorescence and by electron microscopy after on-grid staining visualized with ...

Antigen Binding Properties of Purified Immunoglobulin A and Reconstituted Secretory Immunoglobulin A Antibodies [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
The hybridoma cell line ZAC3 expresses Vibrio cholerae lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-specific mouse IgA molecules as a heterogeneous population of monomeric (IgAm), dimeric (IgAd), and polymeric (IgAp) forms. We describe a gentle method combining ultrafiltration, ion-exchange chromatography, and size exclusion chromatography for the simultaneous and ...
