Complement-Activating Capacity of Autoantibodies Correlates With Disease Activity in Bullous Pemphigoid Patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Background: Bullous pemphigoid is a subepidermal blistering skin disease, associated with autoantibodies to hemidesmosomal proteins, complement activation at the dermal-epidermal junction, and dermal granulocyte infiltration.

GPCRs in CAR‐T Cell Immunotherapy: Expanding the Target Landscape and Enhancing Therapeutic Efficacy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy faces dual challenges of target scarcity and an immunosuppressive microenvironment in solid tumors. This review highlights how G protein‐coupled receptors can serve as both novel targets to expand the therapeutic scope and functional modules to enhance CAR‐T cell efficacy.

Successful treatment of eosinophilic esophagitis with upadacitinib prescribed for atopic dermatitis

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract We describe a pediatric patient treated with upadacitinib for atopic dermatitis (AD) who subsequently achieved sustained clinical and histologic remission of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Upadacitinib is an oral small molecule selective Janus kinase 1 inhibitor that inhibits janus kinase‐signal transduction and activation of transcription ...
