Horses with equine recurrent uveitis have an activated CD4+ T-cell phenotype that can be modulated by mesenchymal stem cells in vitro. [PDF]
Equine recurrent uveitis (ERU) is an immune-mediated disease causing repeated or persistent inflammatory episodes which can lead to blindness. Currently, there is no cure for horses with this disease.

Clinical Variations of Uveitis in Immuno-Inflammatory Diseases. Review of the Literature. Part 1
Non-infectious uveitis is one of the main and insufficiently studied causes of disability and blindness in patients with immuno-inflammatory diseases. Uveitis associated with spondyloarthritis, Behcet’s disease, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, systemic ...

Profound Re-Organization of Cell Surface Proteome in Equine Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells in Response to In Vitro Culturing [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to characterize the cell surface proteome of native compared to cultured equine retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells. The RPE plays an essential role in visual function and represents the outer blood-retinal barrier.

Aging weakens Th17 cell pathogenicity and ameliorates experimental autoimmune uveitis in mice
Aging-induced changes in the immune system are associated with a higher incidence of infection and vaccination failure. Lymph nodes, which filter the lymph to identify and fight infections, play a central role in this process.

Associations of Independent IL2RA Gene Variants with Intermediate Uveitis. [PDF]
The genetic background for the concomitance of uveitis and other autoimmune diseases remains elusive. Here the role of two IL2RA gene variants (rs11594656 and rs12722495) was investigated in intermediate uveitis and HLAB27 acute anterior uveitis.One ...

No association of CTLA-4 polymorphisms with susceptibility to Behcet disease [PDF]
Background: Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) is a key negative regulator of T lymphocytes and has been shown to be associated with a number of autoimmune diseases. The present study was performed to assess the association between CTLA-

Cytokines that Modulate the Differentiation of Th17 Cells in Autoimmune Uveitis
Increasing evidence has suggested that T helper 17 (Th17) cells play a central role in the pathogenesis of ocular immune disease. The association between pathogenic Th17 cells and the development of uveitis has been confirmed in experimental and clinical
