Aberrant localization of fusion receptors involved in regulated exocytosis in salivary glands of Sjogren's syndrome patients is linked to ectopic mucin secretion.
(Facultad de Ciencias, 2012)
Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease that mainly affects tear and salivary glands, whereby SS-patients frequently complain of eye and mouth dryness. Salivary acinar cells of SS-patients ...
Changes in Rab3D Expression and Distribution in the Acini of Sjogren's Syndrome Patients Are Associated With Loss of Cell Polarity and Secretory Dysfunction
(CIENCIAS, 2011)
OBJECTIVE: Oral and ocular dryness are frequent and serious symptoms of Sjögren's syndrome (SS) that reflect problems in secretion due to glandular dysfunction. Exocytosis, an important process in the secretory pathway, ...
Salivary mucins induce a Toll-like receptor 4-mediated pro-inflammatory response in human submandibular salivary cells: are mucins involved in Sjogren's syndrome?
(CIENCIAS, 2015)
Objectives. A hallmark characteristic of SS patients is the ectopic presence of the mucins MUC5B and MUC7 in the extracellular matrix of salivary glands that have lost apical-basolateral acinar-cell polarity. This study ...
Pro-inflammatory cytokines enhance ERAD and ATF6α pathway activity in salivary glands of Sjögren's syndrome patients
(CIENCIAS, 2016)
Salivary gland (SG) acinar-cells are susceptible to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress related to their secretory activity and the complexity of synthesized secretory products. SGs of Sjögren's syndrome patients (SS)-patients ...
Decreased salivary sulphotransferase activity correlated with inflammation and autoimmunity parameters in Sjogren's syndrome patients
(CIENCIAS, 2012)
OBJECTIVES: To determine the expression and enzymatic activities of sulphotransferases involved in mucin hyposulphation in labial salivary glands (LSGs) from SS patients and to correlate sulphotransferase activity with ...
THU0053 Three Dimensional HSG Cells Culture as A Model to Study the Exocitic Process in Salivary Glands of SjÖGren's Syndrome Patients
(CIENCIAS, 2014)
Background Labial salivary glands (LSG) from Sjögren's syndrome (SS) patients show impaired cell-polarity, alterations of SNARE proteins localization and presence of salivary mucins in the extracellular matrix. Exocytosis ...
Disruption of Tight Junction Structure in Salivary Glands From Sjogren's Syndrome Patients Is Linked to Proinflammatory Cytokine Exposure
(CIENCIAS, 2010)
OBJECTIVE: Disorganization of acinar cell apical microvilli and the presence of stromal collagen in the acinar lumen suggest that the labial salivary gland (LSG) barrier function is impaired in patients with Sjögren's ...
Mechanotransduction and epigenetic control in autoimmune diseases
(CIENCIAS, 2011)
Differentiation of epithelial cells is required to define tissue architecture and appropriate function of these cells is associated with a specific pattern of gene expression. DNA methylation, post-translational modification ...
