Challenges for the immunoglobulin and T cell receptor gene nomenclatures in the modern genomics era

ImmunoInformatics
For over thirty years, an approach to the nomenclatures of human immunoglobulin (IG) and T cell receptor (TR) genes has operated successfully and has been widely supported by the research community. The principles behind the human nomenclatures were then

Immunoglobulin genes and diversity: what we have learned from domestic animals

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2012
This review focuses on the diversity of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes and Ig isotypes that are expressed in domestic animals. Four livestock species—cattle, sheep, pigs, and horses—express a full range of Ig heavy chains (IgHs), including μ, δ, γ, ϵ, and α ...

Targeting Post‐Irradiation Thyroid Dysfunction: Electrospun Scaffolds As A Dual‐Action Approach for Antioxidant and Immune Modulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Radiation‐induced hypothyroidism follows head and neck radiotherapy due to oxidative stress and inflammation. Electrospun polycaprolactone scaffolds containing adenosine have potential to modulate thyroid repair. Scaffolds enhance thyrocyte proliferation, antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase and catalase, reduce senescence and apoptosis markers ...

Lack of extensive mutations in the VH5 genes used in common B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. [PDF]

, 1993
B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a malignancy of the CD5+ B cells. Prior studies indicated that CLL B cells generally express immunoglobulin (Ig) VH and VL genes with little or no somatic mutations.

Identification of Plasmodium falciparum var1CSA and var2CSA domains that bind IgM natural antibodies [PDF]

, 2006
Malaria in pregnancy is responsible for maternal anaemia, low-birth-weight babies and infant deaths. Plasmodium falciparum infected erythrocytes are thought to cause placental pathology by adhering to host receptors such as chondroitin sulphate A (CSA ...

A Long‐Lived Human Neurovascular PENTA Culture Model Captures Incomplete Vascular Repair and Glia‐Associated Signaling After Traumatic Brain Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A long‐lived, five‐cell‐type human neurovascular (PENTA) model recreates vascular disorganization and incomplete repair after traumatic brain injury (TBI). By integrating endothelial, glial, neuronal, and immune components within a 3D scaffold, the platform enables time‐resolved analysis of neurovascular remodeling and provides a human‐relevant system ...

Editing of mouse and human immunoglobulin genes by CRISPR-Cas9 system

Nature Communications, 2016
CRISPR-Cas9 has been used to generate a range of genetic modifications including gene knock-outs and chromosomal rearrangements. Here the authors target the immunogloblin genes and demonstrate the induction of class switch recombination, opening up ...
