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,

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Immune system markers of neuroinflammation in patients with clinical diagnose of neuromyelitis optica Marcadores imunológicos em pacientes com diagnóstico de neuromielite óptica

Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2008
Neuromyelitis optica (NMO) is an inflammatory, demyelinating disease of the central nervous system characterized by the association of a serious myelitis and unilateral or bilateral optic neuritis.

Autoantigens as Partners in Initiation and Propagation of Autoimmune Rheumatic Diseases.

Annual Review of Immunology, 2016
Systemic autoimmune diseases are characterized by specific targeting of a limited group of ubiquitously expressed autoantigens by the immune system. This review examines the mechanisms underlying their selection as immune targets.

Interaction between extracellular matrix molecules and microbial pathogens: evidence for the missing link in autoimmunity with rheumatoid arthritis as a disease model. [PDF]

, 2014
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation followed by tissue rebuilding or fibrosis. A failure by the body to regulate inflammation effectively is one of the hallmarks of RA.

Rational Development of a Novel Emulgel Adjuvant for Single‐Shot Effective Vaccination: A Multivariate Analysis Approach

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Using multivariate analysis, a novel emulgel adjuvant is developed by combining key nanoemulsion formulation variables–hydrogel trapping, small globule size, and mannide monooleate surfactant–achieving 10× greater immunogenicity than MF59 in mice after a single shot.

Review of autoantigens in Sjögren’s syndrome: an update

Journal of Inflammation Research, 2017
Primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation in exocrine glands, resulting in reduced secretion of tears and saliva, manifesting as xerophthalmia and xerostomia, respectively.

Molecular Targeting of Islet Autoantigens [PDF]

Immunity, 2010
Type 1 diabetes of man and animal models results from immune-mediated specific beta cell destruction. Multiple islet antigens are targets of autoimmunity and most of these are not beta cell specific. Immune responses to insulin appear to be essential for the development of diabetes of the NOD mouse.

Wogonin Attenuates Atherosclerosis via KLF11‐Mediated Suppression of PPARα‐YAP1‐Driven Glycolysis and Enhancement of ABCA1/G1‐Mediated Cholesterol Efflux

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
PPARα promotes KLF11 expression and recruits KLF11 and YAP1 to form a transcription complex, where KLF11 acts as a brake in PPARα‐YAP1‐mediated glycolysis. Wogonin reshapes the metabolism of macrophages from glycolysis to fatty acid oxidation via activation of the PPARα‐KLF11‐YAP1 pathway, by which wogonin reduces inflammation and foam cell formation ...

Self‐Propelled In Situ Polymerized Nanoparticles Activating the STING Pathway for Enhanced Bladder Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A self‐propelled nanomedicine delivery system forms DMCU nanoparticles in the bladder via in situ polymerization of dopamine hydrochloride, Mn2+, cGAMP, and urease. The urease‐driven propulsion enhances retention and drug delivery. These nanoparticles activate the STING pathway, stimulating dendritic cells and T cells to boost anti‐bladder cancer ...
