Clinical significance of LAIR1 (CD305) as assessed by flow cytometry in a prospective series of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Haematologica, 2014
Most patients affected by chronic lymphocytic leukemia are diagnosed by flow cytometry. Several immunophenotypic markers have been identified as significant and independent prognostic variables, especially from retrospective cohorts.

A novel liver-specific immunoglobulin heavy chain-like gene in a cartilaginous fish

Fish and Shellfish Immunology Reports, 2023
We identified a novel immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy chain-like gene (tsIgH) expressed in the liver of the banded houndshark Triakis scyllium by preliminary transcriptomic analysis.

Production of individualized V gene databases reveals high levels of immunoglobulin genetic diversity

Nature Communications, 2016
Comprehensive knowledge of immunoglobulin genetics is required to advance our understanding of B cell biology. Validated immunoglobulin variable (V) gene databases are close to completion only for human and mouse.

Multiple myeloma shows no intra-disease clustering of immunoglobulin heavy chain genes

Haematologica, 2012
Background Characterization of the immunoglobulin gene repertoire has improved our understanding of the immunopathogenesis of lymphoid tumors. Early B-lymphocyte precursors of multiple myeloma are known to exist and might be susceptible to antigenic ...

Multiple myeloma immunoglobulin lambda translocations portend poor prognosis

Nature Communications, 2019
Multiple myeloma is frequently characterised by translocation of genes next to the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus. In this study, the authors sequence a large cohort of high risk myeloma samples and find translocations of cMyc to the immunoglobulin ...

Analysis of Killer Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor Genes in Colorectal Cancer

Cells, 2020
Natural killer cells (NK cells) play a major role in the immune response to cancer. An important element of NK target recognition is the binding of human leucocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules by killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs). Colorectal

Germline polymorphisms and alternative splicing of human immunoglobulin light chain genes

iScience, 2021
Summary: Inference of germline polymorphisms in immunoglobulin genes from B cell receptor repertoires is complicated by somatic hypermutations, sequencing/PCR errors, and by varying length of reference alleles.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

Intra- and interchromosomal contact mapping reveals the Igh locus has extensive conformational heterogeneity and interacts with B-lineage genes

Cell Reports, 2023
Summary: To produce a diverse antibody repertoire, immunoglobulin heavy-chain (Igh) loci undergo large-scale alterations in structure to facilitate juxtaposition and recombination of spatially separated variable (VH), diversity (DH), and joining (JH ...

Analyzing Immunoglobulin Repertoires

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Somatic assembly of T cell receptor and B cell receptor (BCR) genes produces a vast diversity of lymphocyte antigen recognition capacity. The advent of efficient high-throughput sequencing of lymphocyte antigen receptor genes has recently generated ...
