Mucosal‐associated invariant T cells in rheumatic diseases.
Mucosal‐associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate‐like T cells defined by their semi‐invariant T cell receptor (TCR) and restriction by the MHC class I‐related molecule (MR1). These cells are primarily activated by microbial‐derived metabolites presented by MR1 or by cytokines. Upon activation, MAIT cells rapidly produce pro‐inflammatory cytokines,

Background Autoantibodies against the second extracellular loop of the β1‐adrenoceptor (β1‐AA) act similarly to agonist of β1‐adrenergic receptor, which plays an important role in the pathophysiological characteristics of ventricular remodeling. Recently,

Expert Perspective: Diagnosis and Treatment of Castleman Disease
Summary Castleman disease (CD) is a major diagnostic challenge for Rheumatologists. Unicentric CD (UCD) involves one enlarged lymph node region whereas multicentric CD (MCD) involves multiple enlarged lymph node regions. Both UCD and MCD may exhibit a wide range of symptoms that overlap with other immune‐mediated conditions.

Anti-idiotypic Antibodies against BP-IgG Prevent Type XVII Collagen Depletion
Bullous pemphigoid (BP) mainly targets type XVII collagen (COL17). Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is used to treat numerous autoimmune diseases, including BP. The major mechanism of action for IVIG is thought to be its immunomodulatory effect. However,

Amyloid‐Related Imaging Abnormality (ARIA) Beyond the APOE‐ε4 Allele
Mechanism of action of monoclonal antibodies targeting Aβ in the treatment of AD. (A) Targets of various mAbs. (B) Mechanism of monoclonal antibody‐mediated clearance of Aβ. mAbs facilitate the clearance of Aβ by enhancing microglial‐mediated phagocytosis through the upregulation of TREM2 expression.

Background Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) autoantibody (AT1‐AA) was first identified as a causative factor in preeclampsia. Unlike physiological ligand angiotensin II (Ang II), AT1‐AA can induce vasoconstriction in a sustained manner, causing a ...
