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 ...

Dysregulated Levels of Circulating Autoantibodies against Neuronal and Nervous System Autoantigens in COVID-19 Patients

Diagnostics, 2023
Background: COVID-19 is a heterogenous disease resulting in long-term sequela in predisposed individuals. It is not uncommon that recovering patients endure non-respiratory ill-defined manifestations, including anosmia, and neurological and cognitive ...

PDGFRα+DPP4+ Fibroblasts‐Macrophage Crosstalk Induces Orbital Fibrosis in Treatment‐Resistant Thyroid Eye Disease via the GAS6‐AXL Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study elucidates macrophage‐induced orbital fibrosis in TED via the GAS6‐AXL pathway, a treatment‐resistant disorder lacking non‐surgical therapies. Using a novel patient cell‐derived orthotopic animal model of orbital fibrosis for TED, we repurpose an existing fibrosis therapy, addressing the absence of stable models and offering a potential ...

Matrix Metalloproteinases as Candidate Antigenic Determinants for Anti-Tumor Autoantibodies in Human Ovarian Cancer: A Post Hoc Analysis. [PDF]

FASEB J
Circulating autoantibodies are capable of recognizing accessible targets in tumors. In 2004, we previously identified a prominent mimotope (VPELGHE) of autoantibodies in ovarian cancer patients with phage display‐based “fingerprinting.” With the benefit of more than two decades of biomedical literature and open‐access data, we have re‐explored this ...

Deficiency of DEK proto‐oncogene alleviates allergic rhinitis by inhibiting RhoA/Ezrin‐mediated mitochondrial fission

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram of the mechanism of DEK regulating RhoA activation Ezrin. Upon house dust mite (HDM) stimulation, HDM‐specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) and inflammatory factors such as interleukin 4 (IL‐4), IL‐5, IL‐13, and eosinophils increased in the nasal mucosa.

Neoepitopes in Type 1 Diabetes: Etiological Insights, Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
The mechanisms underlying type 1 diabetes (T1D) pathogenesis remain largely unknown. While autoantibodies to pancreatic beta-cell antigens are often the first biological response and thereby a useful biomarker for identifying individuals in early stages ...

Citrullinated vimentin as an important antigen in immune complexes from synovial fluid of rheumatoid arthritis patients with antibodies against citrullinated proteins [PDF]

, 2010
Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory disease, which results in destruction of the joint. The presence of immune complexes (IC) in serum and synovial fluid of RA patients might contribute to this articular damage through different ...

Antiphospholipid Syndrome: An Antibody‐Mediated Disease With Emerging Therapeutic Opportunities

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune thromboinflammatory disease characterized by vascular thrombosis, pregnancy morbidity, and other manifestations driven by antiphospholipid autoantibodies. In this review, we present a clinical case that illustrates some diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in managing severe, relapsing APS ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
