Butyrophilin family genes as putative coeliac disease risk loci
… HLA-DQ8 and HLA-DQ2.2 (8, 9). Recently, the butyrophilin family of immunomodulators have been proposed as putative non-HLA CeD risk loci (10-12). These genes are involved in regulating innate and adaptive immune cells, and in maintaining γδ T-cell subsets (13). Mayassi, et al. (12) have …

Functional roles of butyrophilin 1a1 and xanthine oxidoreductase in lactating mammary gland
Butyrophilin 1a1 (BTN) and xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) are expressed in the lactating mammary gland and are secreted into milk in association with lipid droplets. Disruption of either the BTN or XOR gene in mice causes the accumulation of large pools of lipid in the cytoplasm, thus suggesting …

Immunologische Kreuzreaktivität zwischen dem Myelin-Oligodendrozyten-Glykoprotein (MOG) und Butyrophilin (BTN) bei Multipler Sklerose
… cross-reactivity with the bovine milk protein butyrophilin (BTN), an ubiquitous dietary antigen. In a subset of MS patients this cross-reactive antibody response is significantly enhanced and are selectively sequestered in the central nervous system (CNS) suggesting that this cross-reactive …

Micro lipid droplet precursors of milk lipid globules
… of milk lipid secretion but it is thought that butyrophilin, a glycoprotein found in milk lipid globule membrane, may play a role. After treatment of mammary epithelial cells with tunicamycin, butyrophilin content of this membrane is reduced. Thus a method for the study of the physiological role …

Effects of Milk Processing on the Milk Fat Globule Membrane Constituents
… in protein alterations, particularly to butyrophilin and adipophilin. Thermal treatments disturbed the native structures of molecules and increased the adsorption of milk and whey proteins on the globules, especially a-lactalbumin and b-lactoglobulin. As the heat intensity increased, the …

Fatty acid synthase is a major polypeptide constituent of cytosolic lipoprotein and is associated with components of the milk lipid secretory pathway
… (FAS). The major milk lipid globule proteins, butyrophilin (8u) and xanthine oxidase (XO), as well as the small GTP-binding protein ARF, also were present. This lipoprotein complex was abundant in cytosol from lactating but not from involuting mammary glands. HPTLC analysis of lipids extracted …

Effect of phospholipase C papain on feathering defect in 11% homogenized UHT processed cream
… day. One of milk fat globule membrane proteins (butyrophilin) was hydrolyzed by papain while β-lactoglobulin was not degraded in papain-treated cream About 65-70% of phospholipid in the membrane material was degraded when 0.75 EU of phospholipase C was inoculated to 11% homogenized UHT processed …

Reconstruction of milk fat globules/membrane (MFGs/MFGM) and characterization of its physicochemical properties and techno-functionalities
… at pH 5.30, causing protein loss such as butyrophilin (BTN) and Periodic Acid Schiff 6/7 (PAS 6/7) and particle size changes. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra revealed more proteins compositions in MFGs/MFGM prepared from sweet whey (MFGM-C) compared to bovine raw …

Mechanisms underlying Leishmania parasites survival and dissemination at late stage of infection in human macrophages
… protein (inducer of IL-13 production) and butyrophilin (inhibitor of IFN-γ and IL-12) were markedly increased confirming the downregulation of inflammatory response. Finally, elevated increase in glutathione reductase and metallothionein-2 proteins, which are involved in scavenging free …

Understanding chicken BG genes at the RNA and protein levels
The chicken BG system is a highly polymorphic and polygenic multigene family encoding type I transmembrane proteins, with butryophilins as homologues in mammals, some of which are crucial in T cell regulation. There are three genomic locations where BG genes are found: one singleton BG gene (BG0) …
