The relationship between biochemical parameters and antibody avidity in diabetes mellitus type 2 patients by A. M. Efendiyev, G. I. Azizova, G. R. Huseynova

“…Conversely, increased amount of low-avid antibodies was observed, respectively 25, 43, and 74% (11% in control).These parameters prove antibody-folding disorders in diabetes mellitus and show that, change of metabolic parameters affects antibody avidity: G class high-avid antibody level decreases and shows weak protective function. This indicates functional disorders in B-system immunity.…”

Bacterial effector screening reveals RNF214 as a virus restriction factor in mammals. by Aaron Embry, David F Schad, Emily A Rex, Neal M Alto, Don B Gammon

“…Phylogenetic analyses reveal that RNF214 is highly conserved across vertebrate species, suggesting a conserved role in host defense. Functional studies demonstrate that RNF214 overexpression suppresses arbovirus infection in a manner dependent on its putative E3 ubiquitin ligase activity, whereas RNF214 depletion enhances viral replication in both human and bat cells. …”
