PW03-027 - CASP1 variants and live cell imaging
Introduction Patients with unexplained recurrent febrile episodes and CASP1 variants suffer from systemic sterile inflammation despite reduced secretion of IL-1ß. As previously demonstrated by our group CASP1 variants lead to reduced enzymatic activity of procaspase-1 by destabilizing the tertiary structure of the caspase-1 tetramer. A possible explanation for an alternative pro-inflammatory pa...
متن کاملPW03-014 - TLR4 and MEFV variants are Behçet's risk factors
Introduction Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are a powerful means for identifying genes with disease-associated common variants, but they are not well-suited to detect genes with disease-associated rare or low-frequency variants. It has long been debated whether the innate immune system is involved in the pathogenesis of Behçet’s disease (BD) but genetic evidence to support this hypothes...
متن کاملAn azido-oxazolidinone antibiotic for live bacterial cell imaging and generation of antibiotic variants
An azide-functionalised analogue of the oxazolidinone antibiotic linezolid was synthesised and shown to retain antimicrobial activity. Using facile 'click' chemistry, this versatile intermediate can be further functionalised to explore antimicrobial structure-activity relationships or conjugated to fluorophores to generate fluorescent probes. Such probes can report bacteria and their location i...
متن کاملPW03-007 - NLRP3 genetic variants in Schnitzler’s syndrome
Introduction Schnitzler’s syndrome (SchS) is an autoinflammatory disorder, characterized by chronic urticaria, fever, gammopathy and bone pain. The etiology is unknown, but interleukin-1 (IL-1) inhibition is very effective, like in the cryopyrin associated periodic syndrome (CAPS), that is caused by activating NLRP3 mutations. Previously, a V198M mutation in NLRP3 was reported in one patient wi...
متن کاملLive cell imaging of plants.
Live cell imaging is an essential approach for studying the structure, dynamics, and functions of cells in a living plant under normal or stressed growth conditions. The tiny flowering plant, Arabidopsis thaliana, provides an ideal system to apply various live microscopy techniques. Its small size allows fluorescent light to penetrate the tissues, and its plantlets contain different cell types ...
