TSHR‐Targeting Nucleic Acid Aptamer Treats Graves' Ophthalmopathy via Novel Allosteric Inhibition

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents YC3, a novel inhibitory TSHR‐targeting aptamer, as a promising therapeutic for Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO). YC3 suppresses pathological phenotypes in human orbital fibroblasts and improves outcomes in GO mice by binding to a previously unidentified allosteric site on TSHR, demonstrating the potential of aptamers in advancing ...

RAGs and Regulation of Autoantibodies [PDF]

, 2004
Autoreactive antibodies are etiologic agents in a number of autoimmune diseases. Like all other antibodies these antibodies are produced in developing B cells by V(D)J recombination in the bone marrow.

CARD9 Conveys Pancreatic Islet Sympathetic Nervous β2 Signals to Reshape Macrophage Creatine Metabolism in Type 1 Diabetes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies CARD9 as a key mediator linking sympathetic β2‐adrenergic receptor signaling to macrophage creatine metabolism, inflammatory polarization, and neuronal integrity. Loss of β2‐AR‐PKA‐CREB1‐CARD9 signaling in macrophages reduces creatine uptake, promotes pro‐inflammatory macrophage activation, and drives sympathetic axon ferroptosis.

Autoantibody pain

Autoimmunity Reviews, 2016
As autoantibodies bind to target tissues, Fc-region dependent inflammation can induce pain via mediators exciting nociceptors. But recently another possibility has emerged, where autoantibody binding to nociceptors can directly cause pain, without inflammation.

Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing of Thyroid Tissues Reveals Pathogenesis of Graves' Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using single‐cell RNA sequencing and TCR profiling, this study constructed an immune cell atlas in thyroid tissue of Graves’ disease (GD), revealing dominant IFN‐γ‐secreting CD4+ T cells, expanded Tph and CD11c+ B cells, and enriched T/NK cells. Notably, GD thyroid follicular cells (TFCs) activated γδ T cells, which recruited cDC1 cells, suggesting a ...

Nasal administration of glutamate decarboxylase (GAD65) peptides induces Th2 responses and prevents murine insulin-dependent diabetes. [PDF]

, 1996
We previously demonstrated that a spontaneous Th1 response against glutamate decarboxylase (GAD65) arises in NOD mice at four weeks in age and subsequently T cell autoimmunity spreads both intramolecularly and intermolecularly.

Gad65 is recognized by t-cells, but not by antibodies from nod-mice [PDF]

, 1994
Since the 64kDa-protein glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is one of the major autoantigens in T-cell mediated Type 1 diabetes, its relevance as a T-cell antigen needs to be clarified. After isolation of splenic T-cells from non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice,

Human monoclonal islet specific autoantibodies share features of islet cell and 64 kDa antibodies [PDF]

, 1993
The first human monoclonal islet cell antibodies of the IgG class (MICA 1-6) obtained from an individual with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus were cytoplasmic islet cell antibodies selected by the indirect immunofluorescence test on pancreas
