Published in 2020 at "Inflammation"

DOI: 10.1007/s10753-020-01330-w

Abstract: Plasma gelsolin (pGSN) is the secreted isoform of an intracellular actin remodeling protein found in high concentrations in human plasma. Clinical studies demonstrate reduced pGSN concentrations in several disease states, including severe trauma, burns, and… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Open Forum Infectious Diseases"

DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofac357

Abstract: Abstract Background Excessive inflammation contributes to the morbidity and mortality of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia. Recombinant human plasma gelsolin (rhu-pGSN) improves disease outcomes in diverse experimental models of infectious and noninfectious inflammation. Methods… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Open Forum Infectious Diseases"

DOI: 10.1093/ofid/ofx163.1215

Abstract: Abstract Background Innate immune responses contribute to successful resolution of bacterial pneumonia. Bolstering host defense with immunomodulators might be increasingly needed to improve outcomes in antibiotic-resistant infections. One candidate molecule is recombinant human plasma gelsolin… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Cancer Research"

DOI: 10.1158/0008-5472.can-20-0788

Abstract: These findings provide new insight into pGSN-mediated immune cell dysfunction in ovarian cancer chemoresistance and demonstrate how this dysfunction can be exploited to enhance immunotherapy. Although initial treatment of ovarian cancer is successful, tumors typically… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Immunology"

DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.1011084

Abstract: Background Prognostic markers for COVID-19 disease outcome are currently lacking. Plasma gelsolin (pGSN) is an actin-binding protein and an innate immune marker involved in disease pathogenesis and viral infections. Here, we demonstrate the utility of… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms22126396

Abstract: Mitochondrial disorders (MD) comprise a group of heterogeneous clinical disorders for which non-invasive diagnosis remains a challenge. Two protein biomarkers have so far emerged for MD detection, FGF-21 and GDF-15, but the identification of additional… read more here.
