B‐lymphocyte calcium inFlux [PDF]

Immunological Reviews, 2009
Summary:  Dynamic changes in cytoplasmic calcium concentration dictate the immunological fate and functions of lymphocytes. During the past few years, important details have been revealed about the mechanism of store‐operated calcium entry in lymphocytes, including the molecular identity of calcium release‐activated calcium (CRAC) channels and the ...

An improved method on stimulated T-lymphocytes to functionally characterize novel and known LDLR mutations. [PDF]

, 2011
The main causes of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) are mutations in LDL receptor (LDLR) gene. Functional studies are necessary to demonstrate the LDLR function impairment caused by mutations and would be useful as a diagnostic tool if they allow ...

Outcomes of Live Virus Vaccination in Patients With Vascular Anomalies Being Treated With Sirolimus

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Live vaccination in patients with vascular anomalies (VA) receiving sirolimus remains controversial due to immunosuppressive effects and theoretical risks. Procedure This single‐center retrospective study included patients with VA less than 4 years old at the start of sirolimus therapy who were incompletely vaccinated.

Highly Efficient Gene Expression in B Lymphocytes Mediating by Lentivirus Vector [PDF]

, 2012
Gene transduction and expression efficiencies among several type cell lines were compared by using vesicular stomatitis virus-glycoprotein (VSV-G) pseudotyped human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) based lentivirus vector. Large discrepancies of the

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Study of the IL-4 and IL-4δ2 interaction with the IL-4R receptors of the I and II types in silico and the effect on the functional activity of mononuclear cells in vitro

Бюллетень сибирской медицины, 2010
Alternatively spliced interleukins are very actively studied over the last years. Splice form of IL-4 — IL-4δ2 has antagonistic effects to its full form on proliferative activity of human mononuclear blood cells and their IL-6 production.

Rituximab, Mycophenolic Acid, and Calcineurin Inhibitors Achieve Long-Term Remission in Pediatric Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis with Steroid-Resistant and Frequently Relapsing Nephrotic Syndrome: A Report of Two Cases

Case Reports in Nephrology and Dialysis, 2022
Studies investigating the effect of rituximab in children with nephrotic syndrome (NS) due to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) have reported conflicting results, with some concluding that patients may require additional immunosuppressive therapy

Anergy in self-directed B lymphocytes from a statistical mechanics perspective

, 2012
The ability of the adaptive immune system to discriminate between self and non-self mainly stems from the ontogenic clonal-deletion of lymphocytes expressing strong binding affinity with self-peptides.

Molecular Mechanisms Used by Salmonella to Evade the Immune System [PDF]

, 2017
Human and animal pathogens are able to circumvent, at least temporarily, the sophisticated immune defenses of their hosts. Several serovars of the Gram-negative bacterium Salmonella enterica have been used as models for the study of pathogen-host ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
