HLA-B*5701 screening for hypersensitivity to Abacavir

, 2008
Background Hypersensitivity reaction to abacavir is strongly associated with the presence of the HLA-B*5701 allele. This study was designed to establish the effectiveness of prospective HLA-B*5701 screening to prevent the hypersensitivity reaction to ...

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

Arthritis &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

T cells, the Next Big Target in Axial Spondyloarthritis?

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by complex immune dysregulation, with T cells playing a central role in its pathogenesis. In this review, we synthesize current knowledge on diverse T cell subsets in axSpA, their pathogenic mechanisms, and emerging therapeutic strategies targeting these cells. We highlight

Viral adaptation to host immune responses occurs in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, and adaptation is greatest in HBV e antigen-negative disease

, 2012
Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-specific T-cell responses are important in the natural history of HBV infection. The number of known HBV-specific T-cell epitopes is limited, and it is not clear whether viral evolution occurs in chronic HBV infection. We aimed to

Autoreactivity vs autoimmunity: characteristics of autoantigen‐specific CD4 T‐cells in rheumatoid arthritis and health.

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background CD4 T cells specific for citrullinated (cit)‐peptides are key players in RA immunopathogenesis. Characterising these cells and identifying features of healthy and RA‐associated autoreactivity will provide valuable insight into disease mechanisms and form the basis of immune state biomarkers to facilitate the next generation of RA treatments.

Homocitrullinated Peptides Drive Pro‐Inflammatory T Cell Responses in a Humanized Mouse Model of Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Anti‐homocitrullinated protein/peptide antibodies are specific to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and predictive of worse prognosis, suggesting a pathogenic role for autoreactivity to homocitrullinated peptides (HomoCitP). However, T cell responses to HomoCitP remain largely unexplored.

The role of IgM anti‐acetylated protein antibodies and B cells in the origin of anti‐modified protein autoimmunity in rheumatoid arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by anti‐modified protein antibodies (AMPAs), including anti‐citrullinated (ACPA), anti‐carbamylated (anti‐CarP), and anti‐acetylated (AAPA) protein antibodies. In contrast to other AMPAs, AAPA IgM is found in healthy individuals, raising questions about its role in early immune responses.

HLA ANTIGENS IN LEUKEMIA

, 1994
The HLA frequency of 197 leukemic patients - 66 affected by ALL, 57 by ANLL and 74 by CML - was compared with the frequency of HLA antigens in Caucasic population and that reported in our bone marrow donors registry.

Increased plasma microbial tDR‐1 in at‐risk individuals is associated with decreased conversion to clinical rheumatoid arthritis and reduces an in vitro macrophage type 1 interferon response

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background Microbial small RNAs (sRNAs) can regulate human genes. Higher plasma concentrations of microbial tRNA‐derived RNA‐1 (tDR‐1) were previously associated with lower rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity. This study examined whether tDR‐1 concentrations differ in anti‐cyclic citrullinated peptide‐3 positive (CCP3+) at‐risk individuals (ARI)

Immunoinformatics‐Based Design of a Multi‐Epitope Vaccine Targeting a Conserved Copper–Associated Protein in Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neisseria gonorrhoeae poses an urgent public health challenge due to rapidly increasing antimicrobial resistance and the absence of an effective vaccine. Targeting conserved bacterial pathways involved in essential physiological processes may provide new opportunities for vaccine antigen discovery.
