Major components of fish immunity: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Fish are fascinating creatures with a certain degree of immunity comparable to those of mammals. The fish's immune system consists of two major components, innate and adaptive immunities.

Human natural killer cells mediate adaptive immunity to viral antigens

open access: yesScience immunology, 2019
Vaccination or childhood infection elicits antigen-specific, long-lived immunological memory in human natural killer cells. Recall responses by human NK cells One of the traditional dividing lines separating innate and adaptive immunity was the ...

Investigating the cell of origin and novel molecular targets in Merkel cell carcinoma: a historic misnomer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study indicates that Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) does not originate from Merkel cells, and identifies gene, protein & cellular expression of immune‐linked and neuroendocrine markers in primary and metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) tumor samples, linked to Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) status, with enrichment of B‐cell and other immune cell

A Zebrafish Model of Mycobacterium leprae Granulomatous Infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding the pathogenesis of leprosy granulomas has been hindered by a paucity of tractable experimental animal models. Mycobacterium leprae, which causes leprosy, grows optimally at approximately 30°C, so we sought to model granulomatous disease in

Patient‐specific pharmacogenomics demonstrates xCT as predictive therapeutic target in colon cancer with possible implications in tumor connectivity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates transcriptomic profiling of matched tumor and healthy tissues from 32 colorectal cancer patients with functional validation in patient‐derived organoids, revealing dysregulated metabolic programs driven by overexpressed xCT (SLC7A11) and SLC3A2, identifying an oncogenic cystine/glutamate transporter signature linked to ...

MHC class II-restricted antigen presentation by plasmacytoid dendritic cells drives proatherogenic T cell immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background—Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) bridge innate and adaptive immune responses and are important regulators of immuno-inflammatory diseases. However, their role in atherosclerosis remains elusive.

The IFITM protein family in adaptive immunity

open access: yesImmunology, 2019
Interferon‐inducible transmembrane (IFITM) proteins are a family of small homologous proteins, localized in the plasma and endolysosomal membranes, which confer cellular resistance to many viruses.

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

Innate and adaptive immunity in teleost fish: a review.

open access: yes, 2018
The immune system of fish is very similar to vertebrates, although there are some important dif - ferences. Fish are free-living organisms from the embryonic stage of life in their aquatic environment.

LncRNAs in adaptive immunity: role in physiological and pathological conditions

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2020
The adaptive immune system is responsible for generating immunological response and immunological memory. Regulation of adaptive immunity including B cell and T cell biology was mainly understood from the protein and microRNA perspective.
