Significance Despite the growing evidence that autoantibodies are team players in pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS), target autoantigens yet to be identified. In this work, we mined autoantibody repertoire within MS by screening more than 2,000 plasma samples from patients with and controls identified increased reactivity against an ion-channel protein called “anoctamin 2” (ANO2). This finding points toward ANO2 autoimmune sub-phenotype might contribute development clinical algorithms...

The underlying molecular mechanisms of autoimmune diseases are poorly understood. To unravel the processes across diseases, comprehensive and unbiased analyses proteins targets recognized by adaptive immune system needed. Here we present an approach starting from high-density peptide arrays to characterize autoantibody repertoires identify new autoantigens. A set ten plasma serum samples subjects with multiple sclerosis, narcolepsy, without any disease diagnosis were profiled on a array...

Narcolepsy is a chronic sleep disorder with yet unknown cause, but the specific loss of hypocretin-producing neurons together strong human leukocyte antigen (HLA) association has led to hypothesis that autoimmune mechanisms might be involved. Here, we describe an extensive effort profile autoimmunity repertoires in serum aim find disease-related autoantigens. Initially, 57 samples from vaccine-associated and sporadic narcolepsy patients controls were screened for IgG reactivity towards 10...

Naturally acquired antibodies to proteins expressed on the Plasmodium falciparum parasitized red blood cell (pRBC) surface steer course of a malaria infection by reducing sequestration and stimulating phagocytosis pRBC. Here we have studied selection representing three different parasite gene families employing well-characterized with severe phenotype (FCR3S1.2). The presence naturally antibodies, impact rosetting rate, reactivity opsonization for in relation groups ABO system were assessed...

Previous studies and own clinical observations of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) suggest that SLE harbors distinct immunophenotypes. This heterogeneity might result in differences response to treatment different subgroups obstruct trials. Our aim was understand how may differ regarding underlying pathophysiology characteristic biomarkers. In a cross-sectional study, including 378 well-characterized 316 individually matched population controls, we defined based on the...

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disease, which currently lacks specific diagnostic biomarkers. The diversity within the patients obstructs clinical trials but may also reflect differences in underlying pathogenesis. Our objective was to obtain protein profiles identify potential general biomarkers of SLE and determine molecular subgroups for patient stratification. Plasma samples from cross-sectional study well-characterized (n=379) matched population...

Plasmodium falciparum invasion into red blood cells (RBCs) is a complex process engaging proteins on the merozoite surface and those contained sequentially released from apical organelles (micronemes rhoptries). Fundamental to formation of moving junction (MJ), region close apposition RBC plasma membranes, through which draws itself before settling newly formed parasitophorous vacuole (PV). SURFIN4.2 was identified at parasitized RBCs (pRBCs) but also found apically associated with...

Abstract Variable surface antigens of Plasmodium falciparum have been a major research focus since they facilitate parasite sequestration and give rise to deadly malaria complications. Coupled with its potential use as vaccine candidate, the recent suggestion that repetitive interspersed families polypeptides (RIFINs) mediate blood group A rosetting influence distribution has raised profile these adhesins. Nevertheless, detailed investigations into functions this highly diverse multigene...

A three-dimensional round liquid jet within a low-speed coaxial gas flow is numerically simulated and explained via vortex dynamics ($\lambda_2$ method). The instabilities on the liquid-gas interface reflect well interactions around interface. Certain key features are identified for first time. Two types of surface deformations distinguished, which separated by large indentation stem: First, those near start-up cap encapsulated inside recirculation zone behind cap. These directly related to...
