Modulation of Regulatory T Cells Activity by Distinct CD80 and CD86 Interactions With CD28/CTLA-4 in Chagas Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Chagas cardiomyopathy is the symptomatic cardiac clinical form (CARD) of the chronic phase of Chagas disease caused by Trypanosoma cruzi infection. It was described as the most fibrosing cardiomyopathies, affecting approximately 30% of patients during ...

The influence of human papillomavirus type and HIV status on the lymphomononuclear cell profile in patients with cervical intraepithelial lesions of different severity

open access: yesInfectious Agents and Cancer, 2009
Background Immunological alterations are implicated in the increased prevalence of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HG-SIL) and persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.

CD28 Blockade Ex Vivo Induces Alloantigen-Specific Immune Tolerance but Preserves T-Cell Pathogen Reactivity

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Donor T-cells contribute to reconstitution of protective immunity after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) but must acquire specific tolerance against recipient alloantigens to avoid life-threatening graft-versus-host disease (GvHD)

41BB-based and CD28-based CD123-redirected T-cells ablate human normal hematopoiesis in vivo

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2020
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 ...

CD8CD28 T Cells: A Human CD8 T-Suppressor Subpopulation with Alloantigen Specificity Induced by Soluble HLA-A2 Dimer in Vitro

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2015
CD8 + suppressor T cells have been demonstrated to provide protection of allografts from rejection. We previously reported that soluble peptide/HLA-A2 dimer shows peptide-specific inhibitory effects on alloresponse in a coculture of peptide-pulsed T2 ...

CD28 deficiency leads to accumulation of germinal-center independent IgM+ experienced B cells and to production of protective IgM during experimental malaria. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Protective immunity to blood-stage malaria is attributed to Plasmodium-specific IgG and effector-memory T helper 1 (Th1) cells. However, mice lacking the costimulatory receptor CD28 (CD28KO) maintain chronic parasitemia at low levels and do not succumb ...

Accelerated immunosenescence in rheumatoid arthritis: impact on clinical progression

open access: yesImmunity & Ageing, 2020
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) develop features of accelerated ageing, including immunosenescence. These changes include decreased thymic functionality, expansion of late-differentiated effector T cells, increased telomeric attrition, and ...

Cutting Edge: Monovalency of CD28 Maintains the Antigen Dependence of T Cell Costimulatory Responses [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2006
Abstract CD28 and CTLA-4 are the major costimulatory receptors on naive T cells. But it is not clear why CD28 is monovalent whereas CTLA-4 is bivalent for their shared ligands CD80/86. We generated bivalent CD28 constructs by fusing the extracellular domains of CTLA-4 or CD80 with the intracellular domains of CD28. Bivalent or monovalent

Ionizable Lipid‐Dependent Optimization of Steroid Lipid Nanoparticles With Tunable Immunomodulatory Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A novel engineering strategy that establishes material design principles for incorporating anti‐inflammatory steroids into lipid nanoparticles to reduce LNP‐induced inflammation while retaining mRNA delivery. Results are validated in vitro and in three animal models of inflammation and autoimmunity in vivo.

Stromal‐Derived IL‐8 Promotes M2 Macrophage Polarization via the RhoA/MRTF‐A/SRF Transcriptional Axis to Impair CD8+ T Cell Cytotoxicity in Lung Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In the recondite pulmonary neoplastic milieu, DESMIN+ cancer‐associated fibroblasts function as the paramount stromal source of IL‐8, precipitating a deleterious immunological metamorphosis by engaging CXCR2 receptors on the myeloid lineage. This paracrine stimulus triggers a mechanotransduction cascade characterized by RhoA‐dependent actin ...
