Cardiac surveillance in immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy: Insights from the Essen Cardio‐oncology Registry

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer therapy, offering improvements in survival across various malignancies. However, their toxicities pose a major challenge for cardio‐oncology units. Despite their growing importance, data on effectiveness of such specialized units in mitigating ICI‐associated ...

Re-exposure to beta cell autoantigens in pancreatic allograft recipients with pre-existing beta cell autoantibodies [PDF]

, 2015
Re-exposure to beta cell autoantigens and its relevance in the presence of donor-specific antibodies (DSA) in pancreatic allograft recipients is not well known. Thirty-three patients requiring a pancreas transplant were enrolled in an IRB approved study.

Cardiovascular toxicity from immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy: an inflammatory continuum

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy has markedly improved outcomes in advanced malignancies but has also revealed a distinct spectrum of cardiovascular immune‐related adverse events. Myocarditis represents the most severe manifestation, while non‐inflammatory left ventricular dysfunction and vascular inflammation have emerged as additional ...

Immunity to self co-generates regulatory T cells [PDF]

, 2008
Immune responses to self are kept in check by tolerance mechanisms, including suppression by regulatory T cells (Tregs). The defective generation of Tregs specific for self-antigens may lead to autoimmune disease.

Retinal S-antigen Th1 cell epitope mapping in patients with Behcet's disease [PDF]

Background - Retinal S-antigen (S-Ag) is a most characterized autoantigen of autoimmune uveitis. The recognized immunodominant epitope of human S-Ag in patients with uveitis has not been identified. In this study, we selected certain patients with active

Cold plasma treatment for oral lichen planus: a retrospective case collection and proposal of a new clinical score

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background and objectives Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic autoimmune mucosal disease with malignant potential and limited treatment options. This study evaluated the long‐term efficacy and safety of cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) therapy in therapy‐refractory OLP and introduced the novel Lichen Planus Severity Score (LPSS).

Anti‐Integrin αvβ6 Autoantibodies as Diagnostic and Monitoring Biomarkers for Pediatric‐Onset Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Levels of anti‐integrin αvβ6 antibodies were significantly higher in pediatric‐onset primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) than in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and may reflect disease activity. These antibodies may serve as a novel biomarker for distinguishing PSC from AIH and for monitoring disease progression.

Autoimmunity against cytokines: Double strike in autoimmune disease, a historical perspective

Biomédica: revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud
Autoimmune responses are characterized by the development of antibodies and the activation of T lymphocytes against self-antigens. This leads to an effector immune response against tissues expressing antigens, which are later recognized by the host ...

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?

Immunology, EarlyView.
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as
