Abstract:
Systematic analysis of several tissue extracts for peptide components followed by bioactivity studies leads to formulation of the concept of "tissue-specific peptide pools". According to that concept the endogenous proteolysis of proteins with well-established functions, such as hemoglobin, actin, and cellular enzymes in tissues leads to formation of the sets (or pools) of bioactive peptides. The sets are tissue-specific on one hand and conservative in a given tissue at normal conditions on the other. The content and the composition of pool components are sensitive both to pathologies linked w

Abstract Naïve CD4+ T cell populations with T cell receptors (TCR) specific for different major histocompatibility complex II (MHCII)-bound foreign peptides vary in size for unknown reasons. Negative selection on self peptides could play a role. We found that MHCII-binding nonamer peptides only had to have the same residues at five positions to be recognized by the same TCR. This degree of TCR cross-reactivity between self and foreign peptides reduced the sizes of foreign peptide-specific T cell populations via clonal deletion.

Abstract Background: Cell surface MHC I molecules are associated with self peptides that are collectively referred to as the self MHC I immunopeptidome (sMII). The sMII plays vital roles: it shapes the repertoire of developing thymocytes, transmits survival signals to mature CD8 T cells, amplifies responses against intracellular pathogens, allows immunosurveillance of neoplastic cells, and influences mating preferences in mice. Despite the tremendous importance of the sMII, very little is known on its genesis and molecular composition. Methodology/Principal Findings: We developed a novel high-

Abstract HLA disparity between patient and donor increases the risk of GVHD after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). However, similar to fully HLA matched SCT, the clinical manifestation of GVHD after HLA mismatched SCT is frequently restricted to skin, gut and liver. Based on the frequency of allo-HLA reactive T-cells, which is about a 1000-fold higher than the frequency of minor histocompatibility antigen specific T-cells, the immune response after HLA mismatched SCT is expected to be mediated by allo-HLA reactive T-cells. Theoretically allo-HLA reactive T-cells can exert three diff

In vivo phage display is a method used for identification of organ- or disease-specific vascular homing peptides for targeted delivery of pharmaceutics. It is agnostic as to the nature and identity of the target molecules. The current in vivo biopanning lacks inbuilt mechanisms to select for peptides capable of vascular homing that would also be capable of tissue penetration to reach therapeutically relevant cells in the tissue parenchyma. Here, we combined in vivo phage display with microdialysis-based parenchymal recovery and high-throughput sequencing to select for peptides that, besides va

By using this technology, we have isolated several peptides which are targeted specifically to tumour blood vessels, lymphatic vessels and/or tumour cells.

The gut needs to recognize harmful bacteria, and consequently contains the largest number of immune cells in the body. However, it must remain tolerant to commensal bacteria.

Abstract:
The activation of factor X by factor VII/VIIa-tissue factor or factor IXa plays a pivotal role in the hemostatic mechanism. This reaction results in the liberation of a peptide from the zymogen for which we have developed a sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay (RIA), The native peptide was purified from activated human factor X by hydroxylapatite chromatography and reverse-phase high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Gel filtration experiments demonstrated that the peptide was not physically associated with the enzyme. A 15 amino acid peptide with the COOH-terminal sequence of the acti

Abstract:
Glucagon-like peptide-1 is an isulin-like peptide hormone from the incretin family. The most popular pharmaceutical analogue of GLP-1 at the moment is liraglutide. GLP-1 receptors are localized in many areas of the brain responsible for the regulation of metabolic processes and eating behavior and in specific areas of the pancreas, heart, blood vessels, immune system, skin and adipose tissue, gastrointestinal tract and kidneys. We can definitely say that the effect of liraglutide extends to all tissues equipped with GLP-1 receptors, while the effect of the drug on the cardiovascular system, im

Abstract:
The general objective of this BARD project focused on rationally designed insect neuropeptide (NP) agonists and antagonists, their application for the characterization of the mechanisms of action of the pyrokinin/PBAN (PK-PBAN) family and the development of biostable, bioavailable versions that can provide the basis for development of novel, environmentally-friendly pest insect control agents. The specific objectives of the study, as originally proposed, were to: (i) Test stimulatory potencies of rationally designed backbone cyclic (BBC) peptides on pheromonotropic, melanotropic, myotropic and

Abstract:
The proposed research was directed at determining the activation/binding domains and gene regulation of the PBAN-R’s thereby providing information for the design and screening of potential PBAN-R-blockers and to indicate possible ways of preventing the process from proceeding to its completion. Our specific aims included: (1) The identification of the PBAN-R binding domain by a combination of: (a) in silico modeling studies for identifying specific amino-acid side chains that are likely to be involved in binding PBAN with the receptor and; (b) bioassays to verify the modeling studies using mut

Abstract:
Infectious disease is one of the most serious causes of economic loss in all sectors of aquaculture. There is a critical need to understand the molecular basis for protection against infectious disease so that safer, more reliable and more cost-effective strategies can be designed for their control. As part of this effort, the major goal of our BARD project was to determine the importance of endobiotics as a defense against protozoan ectoparasites in fish. Endobiotics, or antimicrobial polypeptides, are peptides and small proteins that are increasingly recognized as having a vital role in the

Abstract:
We have reported that localization of TMV in tobacco cultivars with the N gene, is associated with a 23 K protein (IVR) that inhibited replication of several plant viruses. This protein was also found in induced resistant tissue of Nicotiana glutinosa x Nicotiana debneyi. During the present grant we found that TMV production is enhanced in protoplasts and plants of local lesion responding tobacco cultivars exposed to 35oC, parallel to an almost complete suppression of the production of IVR. We also found that IVR is associated with resistance mechanisms in pepper cultivars. We succeeded to clo
