Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

Reduction of CXCR3+CCR6+ CD4+ T Cells and IL‐17+ RORγt+ CD4+ T Cells During Secukinumab Treatment Identifies Patients With Axial Spondyloarthritis Responsive to Subsequent Biologic Therapy

open access: yesACR Open Rheumatology, Volume 8, Issue 9, September 2026.
Objective We recently reported an immune profile that stratifies patients with axial spondyloarthritis based on clinical response to secukinumab. We now undertake an exploratory study on the secukinumab nonresponder patients to determine if immunologic changes occur during their initial secukinumab treatment that could determine their next biologic ...

A viral CTL escape mutation leading to immunoglobulin-like transcript 4-mediated functional inhibition of myelomonocytic cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Viral mutational escape can reduce or abrogate recognition by the T cell receptor (TCR) of virus-specific CD8+ T cells. However, very little is known about the impact of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitope mutations on interactions between peptide–major

Histocompatibility HLA class I in anterior uveitis patients with and without spondyloarthritis

open access: yesСовременная ревматология, 2018
Anterior uveitis (AU) and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) are associated with histocompatibility human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27. Previous genetic studies conducted in different populations have also demonstrated other genetic associations, including HLA ...

Current Cell/Organoid and Animal Models for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 241-259, September 2026.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease with limited therapeutic options and a marked risk of progression to biliary fibrosis, cirrhosis, and malignancy. Progress in PSC research has been hindered by the lack of models that faithfully recapitulate the complex biliary microenvironment and disease heterogeneity ...

Seronegative spondyloarthropathies : a review : part II: genetics and pathogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
In none of the spondyloarthropathies is the pathogenesis well understood. Much of the investigation into the aetio-pathogenesis of these diseases has focused on the association with HLA-B27 and the known triggering potential of certain infectious agents.

Evidence of viral adaptation to HLA class I-restricted immune pressure in chronic hepatitis C virus infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Cellular immune responses are an important correlate of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection outcome. These responses are governed by the host's human leukocyte antigen (HLA) type, and HLA-restricted viral escape mutants are a critical aspect of this host ...

Improvement of Fibromyalgia by Immunoglobulin/Histamine Complex Therapy for Chronic Urticaria and Allergic Rhinitis: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic pain syndrome characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, often accompanied by fatigue, sleep disturbance, and cognitive symptoms. Although several treatment options are available, no curative therapy has been established.

Determination of HLA-B27 Subtypes in Iranian Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis

open access: yesIranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2008
The human leukocyte antigen-B27 is one of the class I molecules of the major histocompatibility complex which is strongly associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS).

Generation of induced pluripotent stem cells from an HLA-B27 positive ankylosing spondylitis patient with syndesmophyte formation

open access: yesStem Cell Research
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 is the genetic marker for ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Here, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a male AS patient carrying HLA-B27 with syndesmophyte formation ...
