Article Abstract

The C-terminus of the human adenosine A2A receptor differs from the other human adenosine receptors by its exceptional length and lack of a canonical cysteine residue. We have previously structurally characterized this C-terminal domain and its interaction with calmodulin. It was shown to be structurally disordered and flexible, and to bind calmodulin with high affinity in a calcium-dependent manner. Interaction with calmodulin takes place at the N-terminal end of the A2A C-terminal domain without major conformational changes in the latter. NMR was one of the biophysical methods used in the study. Here we present the H(N), N, C(α), C(β) and C' chemical shift assignments of the free form of the C-terminus residues 293-412, used in the NMR spectroscopic characterization of the domain.

Immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated cow's milk allergy (CMA) is an immune-mediated reaction to cow's milk (CM). Non-IgE-mediated CMA resolves in most children in the first years of life, whereas IgE-mediated CMA outgrowth is often later or not at all. The exact mechanisms underlying resolution of IgE-mediated CMA are not fully understood.

The immune system uses a variety of DNA sensors, including endo-lysosomal Toll-like receptors 9 (TLR9) and cytosolic DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) synthase (cGAS). These sensors activate immune responses by inducing the production of a variety of cytokines, including type I interferons (IFN). Activation of cGAS requires DNA-cGAS interaction.

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a major complication of diabetes, imposing substantial socioeconomic and public health challenges. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification, a prevalent epigenetic mechanism, influences cellular processes and disease progression. Wilms' tumor 1-associating protein (WTAP), an m6A methyltransferase subunit, was investigated for its role in DN.

Growing evidence have indicated the bidirectional relationships between various inflammatory cytokines and prostate cancer (PCa), but the causality between genetic susceptibility to inflammatory cytokines and PCa was still in initial exploratory phase. This bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR) research was manipulated to draw causative inferences and the effect of direction between 91 inflammatory cytokines and PCa. Genetic data of PCa were originated from a publicly accessible genome-wide association study with 3269 individuals and 459,664 controls, and inflammatory cytokines summarized by a protein quantitative trait locus study were embodied 14,824 participants.
