In vitro Cytotoxicity in Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity and Immunologic Tolerance.
SummaryPicryl chloride was found to exert a lethal effect in vitro on leukocytes, principally lymphocytes, from guinea pigs exhibiting delayed-type skin reactivity to this hapten in the absence of antibody and complement. This reaction was found to be immunologically specific.

Genetic Modification of Limbal Stem Cells to Decrease Allogeneic Immune Responses
Limbal stem cell (LSC) transplantation is the only efficient treatment for patients affected by LSC deficiency (LSCD). Allogeneic LSC transplantation is one of the most successful alternative for patients with bilateral LSCD.

NKp46 clusters at the immune synapse and regulates NK cell polarization
Natural killer cells play an important role in first-line defense against tumor and virus-infected cells. The activity of NK cells is tightly regulated by a repertoire of cell-surface expressed inhibitory and activating receptors.

Cytotoxic Isoantibodies and Immunologic Enhancement in Mice.
Summary1. Cytotoxic isoantibodies and hemagglutinins are stimulated in response to H-2 isoantigenic differences between graft and host in mice. 2. This study offers data correlating cytotoxic isoantibody and immunological enhancement. 3. The mechanism of immunological enhancement has been shown to be associated with peripheral as well as central ...

Immune modulation of i.v. immunoglobulin in women with reproductive failure
Background The mechanism of maternal immune tolerance of the semi‐allogenic fetus has been explored extensively. The immune reaction to defend from invasion by pathogenic microorganisms should be maintained during pregnancy.

Cx43-Gap Junctions Accumulate at the Cytotoxic Immunological Synapse Enabling Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Melanoma Cell Killing [PDF]
Upon tumor antigen recognition, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and target cells form specialized supramolecular structures, called cytotoxic immunological synapses, which are required for polarized delivery of cytotoxic granules. In previous reports, we described the accumulation of connexin 43 (Cx43)-formed gap junctions (GJs) at natural killer (NK ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.
