NEUTROPHIL-LYMPHOCYTE RATIO IN GUILLAIN-BARRÉ SYNDROME: A PROGNOSTIC MARKER TO PREDICT MECHANICAL VENTILATION IN EARLY STAGE OF THE DISEASE

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
Intro: Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a life-threatening autoimmune disorder, triggered by an antecedent infection mostly by Campylobacter jejuni through molecular mimicry against host nerve gangliosides.

Androgen signaling uses a writer and a reader of ADP-ribosylation to regulate protein complex assembly

Nature Communications, 2021
Androgen receptor (AR) signaling is regulated by multiple post-translational modifications. Here, the authors identify the writer and reader enzymes for AR ADP-ribosylation and show how they modulate AR signaling output in prostate cancer cells.

ASSOCIATION OF HYPOALBUMINEMIA WITH DISEASE SEVERITY AND MECHANICAL VENTILATION IN GUILLAIN-BARRÉ SYNDROME

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
Intro: Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), an immune-mediated polyneuropathy with variable clinical manifestation, prognosis and outcome. Despite of the proven efficacy of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg), 20% patients remain disabled with 2-19% mortality ...

Signaling with costly acquisition of signals [PDF]

Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization, 2018
In this paper we investigate the consequences of introducing a cost to observe the signal in an otherwise standard signaling game. Beyond identifying equilibria, which we contrast with those of a standard signaling game, we study their robustness to two important classes of refinements: acting through restrictions on out-of-equilibrium beliefs and ...

Signaling to Experts [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
Abstract We study competitive equilibria in a signalling economy with heterogeneously informed buyers. In terms of the classic Spence (1973, The Quarterly Journal of Economics, 87, 355—374) model of job market signalling, firms have access to direct but imperfect information about worker types, in addition to observing their education ...

GPR110 ligands reduce chronic optic tract gliosis and visual deficit following repetitive mild traumatic brain injury in mice

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2021
Background Repetitive mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) can result in chronic visual dysfunction. G-protein receptor 110 (GPR110, ADGRF1) is the target receptor of N-docosahexaenoylethanolamine (synaptamide) mediating the anti-neuroinflammatory function

Pan-cancer predictions of transcription factors mediating aberrant DNA methylation

Epigenetics & Chromatin, 2022
Background Aberrant DNA methylation is a hallmark of cancer cells. However, the mechanisms underlying changes in DNA methylation remain elusive. Transcription factors initially thought to be repressed from binding by DNA methylation, have recently ...

Dietary fats promote functional and structural changes in the median eminence blood/spinal fluid interface—the protective role for BDNF

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2018
Background The consumption of large amounts of dietary fats activates an inflammatory response in the hypothalamus, damaging key neurons involved in the regulation of caloric intake and energy expenditure.

The Signal for Signaling, Found

PLoS Pathogens, 2009
An important task in the life of bacteria is to influence their environment, which for commensal, symbiotic, and pathogenic bacteria also includes their hosts. This is done primarily by secreting various sets of proteins (effectors), either simply to the outside environment or directly into host cells.

Inhibition of hypothalamic leukemia inhibitory factor exacerbates diet-induced obesity phenotype

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2017
Background The consumption of large amounts of dietary fats can trigger an inflammatory response in the hypothalamus and contribute to the dysfunctional control of caloric intake and energy expenditure commonly present in obesity.
