Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRole of Galphaq Containing Protein in Immune RegulationYuan Liu, Lu Gan, Guixiu ShiG proteins, one of the most important transmembrane signal transducers, contain four subfamilies. Gαq is the α subunit of Gq protein subfamily. The Gαq containing protein initially attracted attention for its physiological significance is in cardiovascular system. In recent years, its role in immune regulation has been indicated. Studies domenstrated that Gαq plays crucial role in regulating both innate and … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Oct 2012 · 7,417 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBayesian Determination of Disease Associated Differences in Haplotype BlocksIvan Kozyryev, Jing ZhangProblem statement: While experimental ascertainment of haplotype blocks in the genome-scale case-control studies is expensive, accurate computational phasing is still a daunting task for bioinformatics approaches. We used a statistical method to determine differences, potentially associated with a certain disease, in linkage disequilibrium block boundaries in whole-genome Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) data. Approach: We utilized a Bayesian model for calculating … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 14 Feb 2012 · 8,423 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractJAK Inhibitors for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Assessing Efficacy and Safety in TreatmentAnastasia V. Poznyak, Varvara A Orekhova, Natalia Vladimirovna Elizova et al.Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by synovial inflammation, progressive joint destruction, and systemic complications. Dysregulated cytokine signaling through the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway plays a central role in RA pathogenesis, making JAK inhibitors an important therapeutic option. Tofacitinib, baricitinib, and upadacitinib are oral targeted synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs that interfere with … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 8 Oct 2026 · 412 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdipokines Overview: The Major Component of Immune DysregulationAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Daria Dmitryevna Borodko, Stanislav Anatolievich Antonov et al.Purpose of Review: Obesity is increasingly recognized as an immune endocrine disorder rather than only a metabolic condition. This review critically examines how adipokines particularly adiponectin, resistin, adipsin, and chemerin mediate the interplay between obesity and autoimmunity. Unlike previous reviews that broadly surveyed cytokines, our focus is on comparative roles of specific adipokines across multiple autoimmune diseases. Recent Findings: Evidence … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 11 Aug 2026 · 879 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Integrated Nursing and Digital Droplet PCR on Bullous Dermatoid Conditions: A Randomized Controlled TrialConghui ChenBullous skin disease is an autoimmune disease characterized by the formation of blisters on the skin or mucous membrane, which seriously impairs the quality of life and overall health. Similar to the research on biomolecules (mechanics of protein interaction), cells (including cell membrane elasticity, cell adhesion, cytoskeletal dynamics, response to mechanical stimulation, cell deformation and cell endoforce transfer) and tissue … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 2 Jul 2026 · 985 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractUnraveling NETosis: From Immune Mechanisms to Therapeutic InnovationsAnastasia V. Poznyak, Alexey V. Churov, Gulalek Amanmyradovna Babayeva et al.Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) are integral to immune responses, serving both protective and pathological roles in inflammatory diseases. Despite increasing recognition of NETs, significant gaps remain in understanding the nuanced mechanisms of NETosis and its implications for health and disease. This review systematically explores NETosis—the formation of NETs—by elucidating the molecular signaling pathways and cellular mechanisms involved. We highlight the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 21 Feb 2026 · 1,678 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Main Heat Shock Proteins on AtherosclerosisAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Alexey V. Churov et al.Atherosclerosis is a multifaceted disease characterized by complex pathogenesis involving diverse mechanisms. In recent years, the autoimmune nature of atherosclerosis has gained significant attention, emphasizing the indispensable role of the immune system in its initiation and progression. Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs) are vital for cellular functionality, facilitating cellular adaptation to environmental changes and survival under adverse conditions. Notably, various HSP … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 3 Oct 2024 · 4,354 accessesView PDFCite
