TARM1 contributes to development of arthritis by activating dendritic cells through recognition of collagens

Nature Communications, 2021
TARM1 is a LILR family member that drives cell signalling via interactions with FcRγ. Here the authors show that TARM1 binds collagens to activate dendritic cells and thereby is an effector of inflammatory arthritis, plus provide a soluble TARM-Fc fusion

Protein kinase Cδ is essential for the IgG response against T-cell-independent type 2 antigens and commensal bacteria

eLife, 2021
Antigens (Ags) with multivalent and repetitive structure elicit IgG production in a T-cell-independent manner. However, the mechanisms by which such T-cell-independent type-2 (TI-2) Ags induce IgG responses remain obscure.

Ribbing disease [PDF]

Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2010
AbstractRibbing disease is a rare sclerosing dysplasia that involves long tubular bones, especially the tibia and femur. It occurs after puberty and is reported to be more common in women. In this article we describe how Ribbing disease can be differentiated from diseases like Engelmann-Camurati disease, van Buchem disease, Erdheim-Chester disease ...
