Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

Atypical chemokine receptor CCRL2 is overexpressed in prostate cancer cells

open access: yesThe Journal of Biomedical Research, 2019
Atypical chemokine receptors have recently emerged as important molecular players in health and diseases; they affect chemokine availability and function and impact a multitude of pathophysiological events, including the tumorigenesis process. This family of atypical receptors comprises five members: ACKR1/DARC, ACKR2/D6, ACKR3/CXCR7, ACKR4/CCRL1, and ...

The Atypical Receptor CCRL2 (C-C Chemokine Receptor-Like 2) Does Not Act As a Decoy Receptor in Endothelial Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
C-C chemokine receptor-like 2 (CCRL2) is a non-signaling seven-transmembrane domain (7-TMD) receptor related to the atypical chemokine receptor (ACKR) family.

Association Between Oral Lichen Planus and Non‐Oral Cancers: A Multicentre Case–Control SIPMO Study

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This multicentre case–control study aimed to investigate the potential association between oral lichen planus (OLP) and extraoral cancers. The secondary objective included the identification of risk factors for this association. Methods The study was conducted between January 2023 and June 2024 and included 21 Italian Oral Medicine ...

Expression of the chemokine decoy receptor D6 mediates dendritic cell function and promotes corneal allograft rejection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Purpose To identify the role of chemokine receptor 6 (D6) expression by dendritic cells (DCs) and its role in corneal transplant immunity. Methods: Flow cytometry analysis was used to assess the expression level of the D6 chemokine receptor in different ...

Heparan Sulfate: A Ubiquitous Glycosaminoglycan with Multiple Roles in Immunity

open access: yes, 2015
Heparan sulfate (HS) is a highly acidic linear polysaccharide with a very variable structure. It is ubiquitously expressed on cell surfaces and in the extracellular matrix and basement membrane of mammalian tissues.

Immune modulation by virus-encoded secreted chemokine binding proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Chemokines are chemoattractant cytokines that mediate the migration of immune cells to sites of infection which play an important role in innate and adaptive immunity. As an immune evasion strategy, large DNA viruses (herpesviruses and poxviruses) encode

The role of acquired host immunity in periodontal diseases

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this narrative review is to relate the contribution of European researchers to the complex topic of the host immune system in periodontal disease, focusing on acquired immunity. Other chapters in this volume will address the genetics and autoantibody responses and other forms of immunity to periodontal disease.

RIPK3 restricts viral pathogenesis via cell death-independent neuroinflammation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIPK3) is an activator of necroptotic cell death, but recent work has implicated additional roles for RIPK3 in inflammatory signaling independent of cell death.
