Microbiota as Drivers and as Therapeutic Targets in Ocular and Tissue Specific Autoimmunity
Autoimmune uveitis is a major cause of blindness in humans. Activation of retina-specific autoreactive T cells by commensal microbiota has been shown to trigger uveitis in mice.

Administration of a peptide inhibitor of alpha4-integrin inhibits the development of experimental autoimmune uveitis [PDF]
Recruitment of lymphocytes into the retina and to the vitreous during the development of experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) is governed by factors such as the state of activation of inflammatory cells and the repertoire of adhesion molecules expressed

Prospective study of uveitis in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis over a 3-year period
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common systemic autoimmune disease in childhood, which can cause non-infectious uveitis. Ocular inflammation is the most severe, sight-threatening extra-articular complication.

Managing toxicities associated with immune checkpoint inhibitors: consensus recommendations from the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Toxicity Management Working Group. [PDF]
Cancer immunotherapy has transformed the treatment of cancer. However, increasing use of immune-based therapies, including the widely used class of agents known as immune checkpoint inhibitors, has exposed a discrete group of immune-related adverse ...

Immunotherapeutic strategies in autoimmune uveitis
Autoimmune uveitis is an organ-specific disorder characterized by irreversible lesions to the eye that predominantly affect people in their most productive years and is among the leading causes of visual deficit and blindness. Currently available therapies are effective in the treatment of a wide spectrum of uveitis, but are often associated with ...

Mouse Models of Experimental Autoimmune Uveitis [PDF]
The mouse model of experimental autoimmune uveitis, induced by immunization of mice with the retinal protein IRBP, was developed in our laboratory 20 years ago and published in 1988. Since that time it has been adopted by many investigators and has given rise to many studies that helped elucidate genetic influences, dissect the basic mechanisms of ...

CRALBP is a Highly Prevalent Autoantigen for Human Autoimmune Uveitis
Cellular retinaldehyde binding protein (CRALBP) is an autoantigen in spontaneous equine recurrent uveitis. In order to test whether CRALBP contributes to human autoimmune uveitis, the specificity of antibodies from human uveitis patient's sera was first ...
