41BB-based and CD28-based CD123-redirected T-cells ablate human normal hematopoiesis in vivo
Background Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematopoietic malignancy which is biologically, phenotypically and genetically very heterogeneous. Outcome of patients with AML remains dismal, highlighting the need for improved, less toxic therapies ...

CD28- cells are increased in early rheumatoid arthritis and are linked with cytomegalovirus status [PDF]
Objective: CD3+CD8+CD28- cells are higher in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). The aim of this study was to assess CD3+CD8+CD28- cells in patients with early RA and assess the effects of cytomegalovirus (CMV) seropositivity.

An investigation into the role of autoimmunity in vitiligo [PDF]
Vitiligo is an acquired depigmenting disorder characterised by the loss of functional melanocytes from the cutaneous epidermis. A role for autoimmunity is supported by the presence of circulating antibodies and T lymphocytes which react against ...

CD160Ig fusion protein targets a novel costimulatory pathway and prolongs allograft survival. [PDF]
CD160 is a cell surface molecule expressed by most NK cells and approximately 50% of CD8(+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Engagement of CD160 by MHC class-I directly triggers a costimulatory signal to TCR-induced proliferation, cytokine production and ...

Combination of cytokine responses indicative of latent TB and active TB in Malawian adults. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: An IFN-γ response to M. tuberculosis-specific antigens is an effective biomarker for M. tuberculosis infection but it cannot discriminate between latent TB infection and active TB disease. Combining a number of cytokine/chemokine responses to
