The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

"Filling the Blanks'': Identifying Micro-activities that Compose Complex Human Activities of Daily Living [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Complex activities of daily living (ADLs) often consist of multiple micro-activities. When performed sequentially, these micro-activities help the user accomplish the broad macro-activity. Naturally, a deeper understanding of these micro-activities can help develop more sophisticated human activity recognition (HAR) models and add explainability to ...

Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...

The Relationship of Basic and Instrumental Activities of Daily Living With the Risk of Developing Pressure Ulcer

Journal of Client-centered Nursing Care, 2018
Background: The basic and instrumental activities of daily living are prerequisites for living with a good quality of life. On the contrary, lack of movement and physical inactivity are considered as the main cause of pressure injuries. Accordingly, this
