CD28 between tolerance and autoimmunity: The side effects of animal models [version 1; referees: 2 approved] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Regulation of immune responses is critical for ensuring pathogen clearance and for preventing reaction against self-antigens. Failure or breakdown of immunological tolerance results in autoimmunity.

Short peptide perturbs spermatogenesis via immune microenvironment dysregulation and mitochondrial imbalance

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In the blood–testis barrier, occludin is crucial for tight junctions. This study demonstrates that occludin‐targeting short peptides disrupt junction integrity, inducing immune cell infiltration, tumor necrosis factor‐α/interleukin‐6 secretion and mitochondrial dysfunction, ultimately triggering apoptosis.

Pro‐inflammatory dopamine‐2 receptor‐specific T cells in paediatric movement and psychiatric disorders

open access: yesClinical & Translational Immunology, 2020
Objectives A dysregulated inflammatory response against the dopamine‐2 receptor (D2R) has been implicated in movement and psychiatric disorders. D2R antibodies were previously reported in a subset of these patients; however, the role of T cells in these ...

Statistical Inference for Genetic Relatedness Based on High-Dimensional Logistic Regression [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
This paper studies the problem of statistical inference for genetic relatedness between binary traits based on individual-level genome-wide association data. Specifically, under the high-dimensional logistic regression models, we define parameters characterizing the cross-trait genetic correlation, the genetic covariance and the trait-specific genetic ...

Screening of endocrine organ-specific humoral autoimmunity in 47,XXY Klinefelter's syndrome reveals a significant increase in diabetes-specific immunoreactivity in comparison with healthy control men. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of humoral endocrine organ-specific autoimmunity in 47,XXY Klinefelter’s syndrome (KS) by investigating the autoantibody profile specific to type 1 diabetes (T1DM), Addison’s disease (AD), Hashimoto ...

Management and Outcomes in Confirmed or Suspected Acute Symptomatic Seizure: Role of Structured Outpatient Care

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Post‐discharge management and outcomes of acute symptomatic seizures (ASyS) remain underexplored. We analyzed post‐discharge ASM management and outcomes in ASyS patients undergoing continuous EEG (cEEG), including the role of outpatient care through a post‐acute symptomatic seizure (PASS) clinic. Methods We performed a single‐center,

Identification of commensal gut microbiota signatures as predictors of clinical severity and disease progression in multiple sclerosis

open access: yesScientific Reports
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system and a leading cause of neurological disability in young adults. Clinical presentation and disease course are highly heterogeneous. Typically, disease progression occurs

A Data-Efficient Deep Learning Framework for Segmentation and Classification of Histopathology Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
The current study of cell architecture of inflammation in histopathology images commonly performed for diagnosis and research purposes excludes a lot of information available on the biopsy slide. In autoimmune diseases, major outstanding research questions remain regarding which cell types participate in inflammation at the tissue level, and how they ...

Correspondence of MRI and nTMS With EDSS in Multiple Sclerosis: Longitudinal Follow‐Up Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Considering the characteristics of multiple sclerosis (MS) disease and its impact on motor disability, this study aims to assess the functional integrity of the corticospinal tract by examining motor evoked potentials (MEPs), Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesion counts, and ...

The Emerging Jamboree of Transformative Therapies for Autoimmune Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Standard treatments for autoimmune and autoinflammatory disorders rely mainly on immunosuppression. These are predominantly symptomatic remedies that do not affect the root cause of the disease and are associated with multiple side effects ...
