Validation of a Genetic Risk Score Combined with Clinical Variables for Predicting Pulmonary Fibrosis in early Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a severe extra‐articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The study aimed to externally validate a genetic risk score (GRS) and a combined risk score for predicting the risk of RA‐associated PF in an independent cohort of early‐RA patients. Methods This study utilized an inception cohort of 1118 patients

FREQUENCY OF OCCURRENCE OF ANTIBODIES TO HLA ANTIGENS IN RECIPIENTS ON THE WAITING LIST FOR KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION

open access: yesМедицина в Кузбассе, 2023
Antibodies (a/t) to antigens (a/g) of human tissue compatibility HLA (human leucocyte antigens) are the main cause of kidney transplant rejection. Antigens of the HLAI class system (loci A, B, C) are present on all nucleated cells of the body, HLA class

Bioengineered Pancreatic Cancer Immunosuppressive Microenvironment Models for Screening Immunotherapies

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bioengineering tumor‐stroma pancreatic cancer models with potential to emulate the native immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Cancer‐on‐a‐bead models exhibited higher relevance for screening immunotherapies and modulating the protumoral PDAC microenvironment. ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer is notably resistant to treatment, primarily due to its dense

TANTIGEN 2.0: a knowledge base of tumor T cell antigens and epitopes

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2021
We previously developed TANTIGEN, a comprehensive online database cataloging more than 1000 T cell epitopes and HLA ligands from 292 tumor antigens. In TANTIGEN 2.0, we significantly expanded coverage in both immune response targets (T cell epitopes and ...
