Hyperacute Interleukin‐1β Production and Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation in the Cerebral Circulation of Stroke Patients with Large Vessel Occlusion

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion is associated with rapid intravascular immune activation. Analysis of arterial blood sampled distal to the thrombus during mechanical thrombectomy revealed increased extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) levels, evidence of inflammasome priming in monocytes, and ...

Proinflammatory Epstein–Barr Virus Antibody Functions Track with Disease Activity in Multiple Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS). Elevated immunoglobulin G (IgG) titers against EBV nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA1) represent the most consistent serological marker of MS risk, with levels remaining persistently elevated following disease onset.

Frequencies of HLA-A24 and HLA-DR4-DQ8 are increased and that of HLA-B blank is decreased in chronic toxic oil syndrome

open access: yes, 1996
SUMMARY: The cause of toxic oil syndrome (TOS) has not yet been definitively determined, but some genetic susceptibility factors (certain HLA antigens and female sex) have been identified in 236 patients. Similarities with genetic factors for scleroderma

Single‐Cell Level Characterization of B Cell Depletion and Repopulation Following Rituximab in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rituximab, a CD20+ B cell depletion therapy, is frequently used to treat systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, variability in patient response highlights the need for a deeper understanding of the underlying immune cell dynamics of B cell depletion and repopulation.

Assessment of TWIST1 as an immunotherapeutic target of cancer

open access: yes, 2011
CD8+ T lymphocytes are key mediators of anti-tumour immunity, eliminating tumour cells through the recognition of tumour antigens. Increasing the number of characterised tumour antigens, especially those with highly specific tumour expression, may enable

Autoantibodies to Joint‐Related Peptides Are Associated With Onset of Rheumatoid Arthritis in Presymptomatic Seronegative Individuals

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective To identify autoantibodies in presymptomatic individuals that associate with the onset of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and to distinguish early RA from osteoarthritis (OA), particularly in individuals lacking classic RA serologic markers. Methods We analyzed serum and plasma from three cohorts: presymptomatic individuals who later developed RA ...

Mapping the Landscape of Host-Pathogen Coevolution: HLA Class I Binding and Its Relationship with Evolutionary Conservation in Human and Viral Proteins

open access: yes, 2011
The high diversity of HLA binding preferences has been driven by the sequence diversity of short segments of relevant pathogenic proteins presented by HLA molecules to the immune system.

Identification of two novel alleles HLA-B*3569 and -B*4450 and confirmation of HLA-A*2631 in the Brazilian population

open access: yes, 2015
Two novel alleles, human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*3569, -B*4450 and a confirmatory sequence of HLA-A*2631 were identified during a routine typing for the Brazilian Bone Marrow Donor Registry.

T Cell Plasticity in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Revealed by Large‐Scale T Cell Receptor Repertoire and Transcriptome Studies

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective We aimed to characterize CD4+ T cell plasticity in human systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by leveraging T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire features as markers of prior lineage states, integrating TCR and transcriptomic profiling to delineate plasticity patterns and evaluate their association with clinical disease activity. Methods We used TCR
