Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRat Model for Poly-AutoimmunityMaria StaykovaAround 30% of the male PVG rats have very low testosterone levels. Upon immunisation with myelin basic protein in complete Freund’s adjuvant they develop experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and adjuvant arthritis. The androgen insensitive syndrome in these rats could be used in studies on poly-autoimmunity as well as in studies on variations in the sexual differentiation of brain and behavior. …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 7 Sep 2012 · 7,549 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Duality of AIM2 Inflammasome: A Focus on its Role in Autoimmunity and Skin DiseasesMiriam CanaveseUnderstanding the inflammasome biology is one of the most exciting challenges in immuno-pharmacology. The role of the inflammasomes has been recognized in the host defense mechanism against invading pathogens and in the development of several conditions, such as cancer, auto-inflammatory, autoimmune, metabolic and neurodegenerative disorders. DNA recognition by the cells is a crucial immunological step leading to the initiation of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 23 Apr 2016 · 7,369 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRelation between Autoimmunity Chronic Urticaria and the Levels of Plasma Prothrombin F1+2Liu Xiaoming, Sheng Wanxiang, Ahmad T. Khalaf et al.A number of recent epidemiologic and experimental studies have enhanced our knowledge of the etiology and pathogenesis of chronic urticaria (CU), a disease that imposes profound impairment on patient's quality of life. Our study was performed to explore the relation between autoimmunity (CU) and the levels of plasma prothrombin F1+2. Thirty four (CU) patients with positive autologous serum skin test … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAdipokines 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
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsUnraveling 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
EditorialOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Immunological Argument for One HealthMark Brown et al.Human exposure to heavy metals is associated with higher rates of immunological deficiencies, autoimmunity, and cancer. Chronic exposure to lead contributes to abnormalities in immunomodulation while cadmium is linked to breast, prostate, and lung cancers. Prenatal exposure to these metals impacts both the development and function of immune cells. The concept of one health underscores the importance of the interface … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 3 Feb 2023 · 9,822 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsJAK 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
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsCorrelation of Atherosclerosis and Osteoarthritis, the Role of Inflammation in the Pathogenesis of Osteoarthritis and AtherosclerosisAnastasia V. Poznyak, Nikolay A. Orekhov, Aleksandra Sergeevna Utkina et al.Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) rank among the leading causes of death globally, accounting for a substantial proportion of mortality rates and affecting millions of individuals. Risk factors such as ageing, obesity, diabetes and a sedentary lifestyle contribute significantly to the prevalence of CVD. Osteoarthritis (OA), on the other hand, is one of the most common joint disorders, affecting a large segment … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 15 Feb 2026 · 1,769 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnti-Prm Antibody as an Autoantibody in Dengue Virus InfectionKao-Jean Huang, Yu-Tien Cheng, Yee-Shin Lin et al.We have reported that anti-prM antibody is an enhancing antibody that enhances DV infection of non-Fc receptor bearing cells by dual specificity. We identified the epitope recognized by this anti-prM antibody, M3, which is located at the a.a.53-67of the prM protein nearby the prM/M cleavage junction and these anti-M3 antibodies could be detected in dengue patients sera. Surprisingly, this anti-prM … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,304 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFocalize the Structure of Myd88 in TLR Signaling Pathway to Modulate Innate Immune Response: New Target for Old DiseasesShuai Xing, Ping ZhouAll diseases have their Achilles’ Heel to target and this is especially true for immunorelated diseases which must be treated by targeting the immune system somewhere and somehow correctly. In the most recent decade, immunologists recognized that the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in innate immune system plays a double-edged role in the pathogenesis of many notorious diseases. Although the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,862 accessesView PDFCite
