Multiple Environmental Signaling Pathways Control the Differentiation of RORγt-Expressing Regulatory T Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
RORγt-expressing Tregs form a specialized subset of intestinal CD4+ Foxp3+ cells which is essential to maintain gut homeostasis and tolerance to commensal microbiota.

Chronic viral infection promotes sustained Th1-derived immunoregulatory IL-10 via BLIMP-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
During the course of many chronic viral infections, the antiviral T cell response becomes attenuated through a process that is regulated in part by the host. While elevated expression of the immunosuppressive cytokine IL-10 is involved in the suppression

c-Maf and you won’t see fat [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2010
Osteoporosis is a common, age-related bone disease that results from an imbalance between the processes of bone formation and bone resorption, resulting in reduced bone mass and increased risk of fracture. Mesenchymal stem cells have the capacity to differentiate into osteoblastic and adipogenic lineages; recent research suggests that the switch ...

Carbon Isotopic Signature and Organic Matter Composition of Cenomanian High-Latitude Paleosols of Southern Patagonia

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
The Cenomanian Mata Amarilla Formation (MAF) in southern Patagonia (~55° S paleolatitude, Austral-Magallanes Basin, Argentina) is composed mainly of stacked fluvial deposits with intercalated paleosols, which document Cenomanian environments at high ...

Evolution of microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti-based metal-matrix composites during hot deformation [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2020
Two Ti-based composites, viz. Ti/TiB and Ti-15Mo/TiB were produced by spark plasma sintering using a Ti-10wt.%TiB2 powder mixture at 1000°C or Ti-14.25(wt.)%Mo-5(wt.)%TiB2 powder mixture at 1400°C, respectively.

MAFB is dispensable for the fetal testis morphogenesis and the maintenance of spermatogenesis in adult mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The transcription factor MAFB is an important regulator of the development and differentiation of various organs and tissues. Previous studies have shown that MAFB is expressed in embryonic and adult mouse testes and is expected to act as the downstream ...

TACI expression is associated with a mature bone marrow plasma cell signature and C-MAF overexpression in human myeloma cell lines

open access: yesHaematologica, 2007
Background and Objectives BAFF and APRIL stimulate the growth of multiple myeloma (MM) cells. BAFF and APRIL share two receptors – TACI and BCMA – and BAFF binds to a third receptor, BAFF-R.

SUMO-defective c-Maf preferentially transactivates Il21 to exacerbate autoimmune diabetes. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Invest, 2018
SUMOylation is involved in the development of several inflammatory diseases, but the physiological significance of SUMO-modulated c-Maf in autoimmune diabetes is not completely understood. Here, we report that an age-dependent attenuation of c-Maf SUMOylation in CD4+ T cells is positively correlated with the IL-21-mediated diabetogenesis in NOD mice ...

The Transcription Factor c-Maf Promotes the Differentiation of Follicular Helper T Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Follicular helper T cells (Tfh) have been identified as the primary cell subpopulation regulating B cell responses in germinal centers, thus supporting high-affinity antibody production.
