Antibody responses following the surge of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron infection among patients with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases.

Objectives: The surge of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variant Omicron infections has affected most Chinese residents at the end of 2022, including a number of patients with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs).

Methods: To investigate the antibody level of the Omicron variant in SARD patients after SARS-CoV-2 Omicron infection, we tested BA.5.

Nucleus-translocated matrix metalloprotease 1 regulates innate immune response in Pacific abalone (Haliotis discus hannai).

As an important economical shellfish in coastal area of China, abalone is susceptible to bacterial infection, especially Vibiro parahemolyticus (V. parahemolyticus). Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been extensively investigated in the immune response of mammals.

A comprehensive analysis of the allergenicity and IgE epitopes of myosinogen allergens in Scylla paramamosain.

Background: Scylla paramamosain is one of the most common and serious food allergens in Asia. Therefore, research on its prevalence, accurate diagnosis, and IgE-binding pattern of the allergens is crucial.

Objective: To identify the IgE epitopes of the myosinogen allergens in S.

Involvement of clip-domain serine protease in the anti-Vibrio immune response of abalone (Haliotis discus hannai)-Molecular cloning, characterization and functional analysis.

Vibrio parahemolyticus (V. parahemolyticus) is a major pathogen for abalone, an important economical shellfish in coastal area of China. There is little known about the abalone innate immune system against pathogen infection.

[Induction and mechanism study of anti-melanoma immune response by M. tuberculosis Ag85B].

Aim: To study the anti-melanoma immunity efficacy of Ag85B antigen gene therapy in vivo.

Methods: C57BL/6 mice were inoculated s.c.
