Quantitative predictions of peptide binding to any HLA-DR molecule of known sequence: NetMHCIIpan.
CD4 positive T helper cells control many aspects of specific immunity. These cells are specific for peptides derived from protein antigens and presented by molecules of the extremely polymorphic major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II system. The

: Background: Cirrhosis-associated immune dysfunction (CAID) contributes to high sepsis risk in patients with chronic liver disease. Various innate and; to a lesser extent; adaptive immune dysfunctions have been described as contributors to CAID leading

Potential role for HIV-specific CD38-/HLA-DR+ CD8+ T cells in viral suppression and cytotoxicity in HIV controllers. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:HIV controllers (HIC) are rare HIV-1-infected patients who exhibit spontaneous viral control. HIC have high frequency of CD38-/HLA-DR+ HIV-specific CD8+ T cells. Here we examined the role of this subset in HIC status.

Expression of thyroglobulin on follicular dendritic cells of thyroid mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma [PDF]
Reportedly, thyroid mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is closely associated with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. However, it remains unknown which antigen is closely associated with thyroid MALT lymphoma.

Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells from patients with atherosclerotic renovascular disease have increased DNA damage and reduced angiogenesis that can be modified by hypoxia [PDF]
Representative flow cytometric plots (FACS) showing that AMSCs expressed HLA-ABC, CD44, CD90, CD29, CD73, and CD105 markers, and did not express HLA-DR, CD45, CD14 or CD34 markers.

Increased levels of hyaluronic acid in bronchoalveolar lavage from patients with interstitial lung diseases, relationship with lung function and inflammatory cells recruitment [PDF]
Purpose: Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILD) are characterized by inflammation and fibrosis. It described the role of hyaluronic acid (HA) as an immune-regulator. It is not known if HA contributes to the recruitment of inflammatory cells associated with ILD.

M-DC8+leukocytes - A novel human dendritic cell population [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DC) constitute a heterogeneous leukocyte population having in common a unique capacity to induce primary T cell responses and are therefore most attractive candidates for immunomodulatory strategies.

HLA-DR regulation and the influence of GM-CSF on transcription, surface expression and shedding
Low surface HLA-DR expression is a feature in sepsis. However, the mechanisms that regulate HLA-DR expression have not been elucidated. The current study investigates regulation of HLA-DR gene transcription, post transcriptional events and shedding of ...

ObjectiveIncreasing evidence has suggested that immune cells are known to play a pivotal role in the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). However, the specific causal role of monocyte surface markers, particularly human leukocyte antigen-DR (HLA-DR),
