Transplant Immunology: Basic Immunology and Clinical Practice
DeckerMed Surgery, 2020 Engraftment of a transplanted organ into an allogeneic host triggers a cascade of immunologic responses in the host that are designed to facilitate graft rejection. Modern donor-to-host matching techniques and immunosuppression protocols have successfully tempered this natural immune response so that graft survival has dramatically improved.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.α2 → 8 polysialic acid elicits poor immunogenicity. Small‐angle scattering shows a supramolecular structure with parallel‐chain binding, although in different forms at μm and mm calcium. The major histocompatibility complex requires molecular weights around 2000 Da to produce antibodies, and 2000 Da polysialic oligomers will bind in these structures ...

International consensus (ICON) on: clinical consequences of mite hypersensitivity, a global problem
World Allergy Organization Journal, 2017 Since mite allergens are the most relevant inducers of allergic diseases worldwide, resulting in significant morbidity and increased burden on health services, the International Collaboration in Asthma, Allergy and Immunology (iCAALL), formed by the ...

F1000Research, 2013 We report a case of simultaneous progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy-associated immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (PML-IRIS) during corticosteroid tapering in a patient with an anti-synthetase syndrome.

Dynamic causal modelling of immune heterogeneity [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 An interesting inference drawn by some Covid-19 epidemiological models is that there exists a proportion of the population who are not susceptible to infection -- even at the start of the current pandemic. This paper introduces a model of the immune response to a virus.

Stem Cell Transplantation As A Dynamical System: Are Clinical Outcomes Deterministic? [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology (2014). 5:613, 2014 Outcomes in stem cell transplantation (SCT) are modeled using probability theory. However the clinical course following SCT appears to demonstrate many characteristics of dynamical systems, especially when outcomes are considered in the context of immune reconstitution.

The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.MicroRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. This review examines how miRNAs coordinate glucose and lipid metabolism while simultaneously modulating T‐cell development and immune responses. Moreover, it highlights how cutting‐edge artificial intelligence applications can identify miRNA biomarkers ...

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

A Simple Cellular Automaton Model for Influenza A Viral Infections [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 232(2), 21 January 2005, pp.
223-234, 2004 Viral kinetics have been extensively studied in the past through the use of spatially homogeneous ordinary differential equations describing the time evolution of the diseased state. However, spatial characteristics such as localized populations of dead cells might adversely affect the spread of infection, similar to the manner in which a counter-fire ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In this explorative biomarker analysis, we assessed serial sampling of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) with CellSearch in two randomized trials testing immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in metastatic breast cancer. Our data demonstrate a prognostic potential of CTCs, most apparent 4 weeks into ICI therapy.
