Antiviral effects and mechanism of Qi pi pill against influenza viruses

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Qi pi pill presents anti‐influenza effect and inhibits viral replication in vitro by targeting both the viral RNA replication and the release of new viral particles. Furthermore, QPP modulates the production of proinflammatory cytokines induced by influenza infection in host cells.

Cloning of hemagglutinin (HA) protein of influenza A virus - Potential for sialic acid linkage discrimination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The initial step in infection of a cell by influenza A virus is the attachment of a virus particle to the target cell. This is accomplished by interaction of a glycoprotein, hemagglutinin (HA), found on the surface of the viral lipid membrane with cell ...

Variable domain N-linked glycosylation and negative surface charge are key features of monoclonal ACPA: implications for B-cell selection

open access: yes, 2018
Autoreactive B cells have a central role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and recent findings have proposed that anti-citrullinated protein autoantibodies (ACPA) may be directly pathogenic.

Sialic acid-dependent cell entry of human enterovirus D68

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
Human enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is a causative agent of childhood respiratory diseases and has now emerged as a global public health threat. Nevertheless, knowledge of the tissue tropism and pathogenesis of EV-D68 has been hindered by a lack of studies on

Aberrant Glycosylation of IgG in Children With Active Lupus Nephritis Alters Podocyte Metabolism and Causes Podocyte Injury

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Podocytes are integral to the maintenance of the glomerular filtration barrier. Their injury results in proteinuria and disease progression in lupus nephritis (LN). Aberrant IgG glycosylation drives podocyte injury in LN and leads to cytoskeletal rearrangement, motility changes, and decreased nephrin production.

Role of sialic acid in brachyspira hyodysenteriae adhesion to pig colonic mucins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Infection with Brachyspira hyodysenteriae results in mucoid hemorrhagic diarrhea. This pathogen is associated with the colonic mucus layer, mainly composed of mucins. Infection regulates mucin O-glycosylation in the colon and increases mucin secretion as

Differences in IgG Sialylation Distinguish Asymptomatic from Symptomatic Anti‐Nuclear Antibody Positive Individuals

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective The transition from asymptomatic anti‐nuclear antibody (ANA) positivity to systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease (SARD) is associated with increased production of pro‐inflamamtory factors such as TNF‐α. Here we investigate whether the relative absence of inflammation in asymptomatic ANA+ individuals (ANA+NS) results from a lack of circulating

Absence of Neu5Gc and Presence of Anti-Neu5Gc Antibodies in Humans-An Evolutionary Perspective. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The glycocalyx of human cells differs from that of many other mammals by the lack of the sialic acid N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc) and increased abundance of its precursor N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac).

Sialic acid catabolism drives intestinal inflammation and microbial dysbiosis in mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2015
Rapid shifts in microbial composition frequently occur during intestinal inflammation, but the mechanisms underlying such changes remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that an increased caecal sialidase activity is critical in conferring a growth advantage
