Mesenchymal stromal cells support the viability and differentiation of follicular lymphoma-infiltrating follicular helper T-cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The biology of follicular lymphoma (FL) is largely dictated by the immune-effector and stromal cells that comprise its tumor microenvironment. FL-infiltrating T-cell populations that are thought to be fundamental to FL biology are follicular helper T ...

Regulation of Alloantibody Responses

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
The control of alloimmunity is essential to the success of organ transplantation. Upon alloantigen encounter, naïve alloreactive T cells not only differentiate into effector cells that can reject the graft, but also into T follicular helper (Tfh) cells ...

Short oestrous cycles in sheep during anoestrus involve defects in progesterone biosynthesis and luteal neovascularisation [PDF]

, 2014
Anoestrous ewes can be induced to ovulate by the socio-sexual, 'ram effect'. However, in some ewes the induced ovulation is followed by an abnormally short luteal phase causing a so called, "short cycle".

A guide to chemokines and their receptors [PDF]

, 2018
The chemokines (or chemotactic cytokines) are a large family of small, secreted proteins that signal through cell surface G‐protein coupled heptahelical chemokine receptors.

Human T-follicular helper and T-follicular regulatory cell maintenance is independent of germinal centers [PDF]

Blood, 2014
Key Points RTX treatment results in loss of human GC B cells. Human Tfh and Tfr cells do not require GC B cells for their maintenance.

Germinal Center B Cells are Uniquely Targeted by Antibody-Suppressor CXCR5+CD8+ T Cells

Transplantation Direct
Background. Alloprimed antibody-suppressor CXCR5+CD8+ T cells (CD8+ TAb-supp cells) downregulate alloantibody production, mediate cytotoxicity of IgG+ B cells, and prolong allograft survival.

T follicular regulatory cells in the regulation of B cell responses [PDF]

Trends in Immunology, 2015
High affinity antibodies result from interactions between B cells and T follicular helper (Tfh) cells in germinal centers (GCs). Recent studies have identified an effector subset of T regulatory cells termed T follicular regulatory (Tfr) cells that specifically controls GC responses by suppressing Tfh and B cells.

Tuning the Testicular Microenvironment for Enhancing Human Sertoli Cells Maturation and Functionality In Vitro

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An in vitro testicular model is developed by generating connective tissue equivalents from human dermal fibroblast‐derived microtissues and coupling them with human Sertoli cells or human Sertoli cell spheroids. This engineered microenvironment supports Sertoli cell maturation and functionality, providing a promising platform for studying human ...
