Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 NK cells play an important role in the control of tuberculosis infection: they are not only able to kill the infected cells, but also control the activity of macrophages and development of the adaptive immune response.

CD14+ CD15- HLA-DR- myeloid-derived suppressor cells impair antimicrobial responses in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure. [PDF]
, 2017 OBJECTIVE: Immune paresis in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) accounts for infection susceptibility and increased mortality. Immunosuppressive mononuclear CD14+HLA-DR- myeloid-derived suppressor cells (M-MDSCs) have recently been ...

The influence of HLA matching on cytomegalovirus hepatitis and chronic rejection after liver transplantation [PDF]
, 1993 Previous findings in liver transplantation patients have raised the concept that HLA plays a dualistic role. HLA matching will reduce rejection but may augment MHC restricted cellular immune mechanisms of liver allograft injury. To evaluate this concept,

Immunolocalization of HLA-DR and metallothionein on amalgam tattoos [PDF]
, 2004 Despite studies concerning toxic reactions related to amalgam components in the literature, few studies have been devoted to evaluate local noxious effects of amalgam tattoos (AT) on biological tissues.

Immunological Compatibility Status of Placenta-Derived Stem Cells is Mediated by Scaffold 3D Structure [PDF]
, 2018 Placenta-derived amniotic epithelial cells (AECs), a great cell source for tissue engineering and stem cell therapy, are immunologically inert in their native state; however, immunological changes in these cells after culture and differentiation have ...

Antiretroviral Therapy Normalizes Autoantibody Profile of HIV Patients by Decreasing CD33⁺CD11b⁺HLA-DR⁺ Cells: A Cross-Sectional Study [PDF]
, 2016 Autoimmune manifestations are common in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients. However, the autoantibody spectrum associated with HIV infection and the impact of antiretroviral therapy (ART) remains to be determined.
