Abstract
BACKGROUND Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) has been associated with cardiovascular disease and its complications, the progression of diabetic nephropathy, and complement-mediated renal interstitial injury. However, the relationship between plasma MBL concentration with both heart failure and renal function is unclear. In this study, we examined associations of plasma MBL with both renal function and heart failure in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS We enrolled 348 consecutive stable CAD patients and used ELISA to evaluate plasma concentrations of MBL. Renal function was classified into KDIGO G1, G2 and G3a-G4 groups according to the eGFR of ≥ 90, 60-89 and 15-59, ml/min/1.73 m2, respectively. Patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 40 % were classified to have heart failure. RESULTS A significant positive association was found between MBL with diabetes mellitus, current smoker, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and brain natriuretic peptide, and a significant negative association was found between MBL with eGFR and LVEF. KDIGO stage G3a-G4 and heart failure increased along with tertiles of MBL (p for trend < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that compared to the patients with a low MBL concentration, the odds ratios of having KDIGO stage G3a-G4 were 1.89 (1.01-3.55) times and 2.37 (1.25-4.59) times higher for those with medium and high MBL concentrations. Furthermore, compared to the patients with a low MBL concentration, the OR of having heart failure were 1.97 (1.01-3.93) times higher for those with high MBL concentrations. Moreover, multivariate analysis showed an independent association between plasma MBL concentration with both KDIGO stage G3a-G4 and heart failure (LVEF < 40 %). In addition, the effect of MBL on both LVEF and eGFR was confirmed by structural equation model analysis. CONCLUSION There are associations between circulating MBL concentration with both heart failure and renal function in stable CAD patients, suggesting that increased plasma MBL may contribute to the pathogenesis of both chronic kidney disease and heart failure.

Abstract
Since the identification of PLA2R (M-type phospholipase A2 receptor) as the first human antigenic target in primary membranous nephropathy (MN), perpetual progress has been made in understanding the pathogenesis of this disease. Accumulating clinical data support a pathogenic role for the anti-PLA2R antibodies (PLA2R ABs), but confirmation in an animal model is still lacking. However, PLA2R ABs were related to disease activity and outcome, as well as to response therapy. Accordingly, PLA2R ABs assay seems to be promising tool not only to diagnose MN but also to predict the course of the disease and could open the way to personalize therapy. Nevertheless, validation of a universal assay with high precision and definition of cut-off levels, followed by larger studies with a prolonged follow-up period, are needed to confirm these prospects.

Abstract
Complement system activation is associated with immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) activity and progression. The aim of the present study was to investigate the importance of urinary mannose-binding lectin (MBL), at the time of renal biopsy, for evaluating disease severity and predicting the progression of IgAN. A total of 162 patients with biopsy-proven IgAN were enrolled and 50 healthy individuals were selected as normal controls. Urinary MBL was measured by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and normalized for urinary creatinine concentration. Urinary MBL was significantly higher in IgAN patients than that in normal controls, and elevated as histopathological phenotypes upgraded. Urinary MBL was correlated significantly with the well-known clinical predictors for the prognosis of IgAN; that is, renal function (represented by serum creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate), proteinuria and arterial hypertension. Urinary MBL was demonstrated to be correlated with the histopathological parameters which have independent value in predicting renal outcome of IgAN according to the Oxford classification; that is, mesangial hypercellularity, segmental glomerulosclerosis, endocapillary hypercellularity and tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis. More importantly, non-remission patients at the end of follow-up had significantly higher levels of urinary MBL compared with patients in remission. In conclusion, urinary MBL can be a reliable non-invasive biomarker for evaluating disease severity and predicting the prognosis of IgAN. This is the first report on this issue. However, our conclusions should be verified further in large-scale studies with long-term follow-up.

Abstract
Mannose-binding lectin was identified as a substrate of tankyrase 2, an enzyme that catalyzes poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation. The endogenous tankyrase 2 was isolated out of cytoplasm of human embryonic kidney cells. It was bound to a soluble complex of at least two other proteins; they were identified using specific antibodies and other approaches as keratin 1 and mannose-binding lectin. Using immunoblot analysis and radioactive labeling, we detected tankyrase-2-dependent poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of mannose-binding lectin. In the presence of NAD(+), the complex of keratin 1 and lectin was dissociated, what was recorded during elution of its separate components out of affinity columns and by decrease of their apparent molecular masses during gel-filtration. Tankyrase 2 also inhibited the carbohydrate-binding function of the lectin. The latter effect was observed using mannose-binding lectin out of human serum, which is free from keratin 1. As a result of tankyrase-2 activity, the lectin lost its affinity to mannan-agarose. The discovery of this new biochemical mechanism justifies further analysis of its physiological and medical significance.

Abstract
Acute graft rejection is an important clinical problem in renal transplantation and an adverse predictor for long term graft survival. Plasma biomarkers may offer an important option for post-transplant monitoring and permit timely and effective therapeutic intervention to minimize graft damage. This case-control discovery study (n = 32) used isobaric tagging for relative and absolute protein quantification (iTRAQ) technology to quantitate plasma protein relative concentrations in precise cohorts of patients with and without biopsy-confirmed acute rejection (BCAR). Plasma samples were depleted of the 14 most abundant plasma proteins to enhance detection sensitivity. A total of 18 plasma proteins that encompassed processes related to inflammation, complement activation, blood coagulation, and wound repair exhibited significantly different relative concentrations between patient cohorts with and without BCAR (p value <0.05). Twelve proteins with a fold-change >or=1.15 were selected for diagnostic purposes: seven were increased (titin, lipopolysaccharide-binding protein, peptidase inhibitor 16, complement factor D, mannose-binding lectin, protein Z-dependent protease and beta(2)-microglobulin) and five were decreased (kininogen-1, afamin, serine protease inhibitor, phosphatidylcholine-sterol acyltransferase, and sex hormone-binding globulin) in patients with BCAR. The first three principal components of these proteins showed clear separation of cohorts with and without BCAR. Performance improved with the inclusion of sequential proteins, reaching a primary asymptote after the first three (titin, kininogen-1, and lipopolysaccharide-binding protein). Longitudinal monitoring over the first 3 months post-transplant based on ratios of these three proteins showed clear discrimination between the two patient cohorts at time of rejection. The score then declined to baseline following treatment and resolution of the rejection episode and remained comparable between cases and controls throughout the period of quiescent follow-up. Results were validated using ELISA where possible, and initial cross-validation estimated a sensitivity of 80% and specificity of 90% for classification of BCAR based on a four-protein ELISA classifier. This study provides evidence that protein concentrations in plasma may provide a relevant measure for the occurrence of BCAR and offers a potential tool for immunologic monitoring.
