Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Health and Disease
The roles of MAIT cells in health and disease and their therapeutic applications. In healthy individuals, riboflavin metabolites secreted by commensal bacteria at mucosal sites are presented by MR1, leading to the activation of MAIT cells. Activated MAIT cells can maintain the barrier integrity of mucosal tissues in a steady state or migrate to the ...

Tracking the source of the hepatitis B virus-specific CD8 T cells during lamivudine treatment [PDF]
Lamivudine treatment in chronic hepatitis B leads to the reconstitution of virus-specific T cells in the circulation, but it is not clear whether this is the preferential result of T cell efflux from the liver or lymph nodes.

An optimized ex vivo human liver slice culture system preserves tissue architecture, hepatocyte function, and immune‐stromal complexity for at least five days. By refining slice thickness, oxygenation, air‐liquid interface, and extracellular matrix support, the platform enables human‐relevant hepatotoxicity testing and mechanistic studies, offering a ...

Seroprevalence of hepatitis B and C virus in HIV-1 and HIV-2 infected Gambians. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The prevalence of HIV/hepatitis co-infection in sub-Saharan Africa is not well documented, while both HIV and HBV are endemic in this area.

Cumulative Antigen Suppression Reduces Clonal Plasma Cell Evolution in Gaucher Disease
ABSTRACT Chronic antigenic stimulation is implicated in the pathogenesis of monoclonal gammopathy and multiple myeloma, yet longitudinal human evidence linking sustained antigen exposure to modifiable clonal plasma cell evolution remains limited. Gaucher disease (GD), caused by biallelic GBA1 pathogenic variants, is characterized by accumulation of ...

Intrinsic disorder and oligomerization of the hepatitis delta virus antigen
The 195 amino acid basic protein (δAg) of hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is essential for replication of the HDV RNA genome. Numerous properties have been mapped to full-length δAg and attempts made to link these to secondary, tertiary and quaternary structures.

Distinct cytokine patterns in Occult Hepatitis C and Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection [PDF]
Background & Aim: The immunopathogenesis of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a matter of great controversy. The imbalance of T-helper lymphocyte cell cytokine production was believed to play an important pathogenic role in ...

Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes
