Abstract

The study was performed to investigate the role of the IgA1 hinge region in the IgA1-IgA1 interaction, which was observed previously in IgA nephropathy. The competitive inhibition assays of the IgA1-IgA1 binding were performed using the following candidates for inhibitors: native IgA1 hinge glycopeptide (nHGP), IgA1, IgA2, and IgG. The IgA1-IgA1 binding was definitely inhibited by the nHGP and the IgA1 (maximum of percent inhibition: 66.1 and 60.5%, respectively). There was no obvious inhibition in the IgA2 and the IgG. The inhibition curves of the nHGP and the IgA1 were significantly different from that of the IgG (P < 0.01, respectively). Furthermore, to reveal the detailed binding sites in the interaction, the same inhibition assays were performed using the following substances composing the IgA1 hinge glycopeptide: galactose (Gal), N-acetyl-galactosamine (GalNAc), Gal beta 1-3GalNAc, sialic acid, tetrapeptide PTPS, and synthesized hinge proline-rich peptide PVPSTPPTPSPSTPPTPSPS (sHP). sHP, Gal beta 1-3GalNAc, Gal, and GalNAc inhibited the binding (69.3, 34.1, 14.9, 14.6%, respectively). No obvious inhibition was observed in sialic acid and tetrapeptide PTPS. The inhibition curve of sHP was significantly different from that ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
