Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Innate immune basis for rift valley fever susceptibility in mouse models [PDF]

, 2017
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) leads to varied clinical manifestations in animals and in humans that range from moderate fever to fatal illness, suggesting that host immune responses are important determinants of the disease severity. We investigated the

Spondyloarthritis and the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-B*27 Connection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Heritability of Spondyloarthritis (SpA) is highlighted by several familial studies and a high association with the presence of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B*27.

Ablation of LRP6 in alpha‐smooth muscle actin‐expressing cells abrogates lung inflammation and fibrosis upon bleomycin‐induced lung injury

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.

Immune Shielding of Human Heart Valves:A Proof-of-Concept Study of HLA-Targeting Therapy for Transplantations [PDF]

Children born with defective heart valves require multiple donor valve replacements throughout life, because these cannot grow and can cause early failure through immune degeneration. This study tests the lentiviral delivery of viral immune evasion genes

Analysis of Human Leukocyte Antigen Frequency among Renal Transplant Recipients and Donors in Nepal

Global Journal of Transfusion Medicine
Background and Objectives: Kidney transplants are effective for advanced renal failure, but graft rejection can occur when the recipient’s immune system misidentifies the kidney as a foreign object.

Human leukocyte antigen-A*33:03-B*58:01-DRB1*15:140, a deduced probable human leukocyte antigen haplotype in association with a human leukocyte antigen low-incidence allele DRB1*15:140 in Taiwanese individuals: A case analysis

Tzu-Chi Medical Journal, 2019
Objective: Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB1*15:140 is a low-frequency allele in the HLA-DRB1 locus. The aim of this study is to confirm the ethnicity of DRB1*15:140 and to deduce a probable HLA-DRB1*15:140-associated HLA haplotype in Taiwanese ...

Immunoregulatory mechanisms of the arachidonic acid pathway in cancer

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The central role of the arachidonic acid (AA) pathway in anticancer immunity. Enzymes and metabolites of the AA pathway can play both immunosuppressive and immunostimulatory roles in the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, their tailored targeting could be beneficial as a standalone therapy or in combination with current cancer immunotherapy.

A monoclonal antibody recognizing very late activation antigen-4 inhibits eosinophil accumulation in vivo. [PDF]

, 1993
Using an in vivo test system, the role of the β1 integrin very late activation antigen-4 (VLA-4) in eosinophil accumulation in allergic and nonallergic inflammatory reactions was investigated.

Identification of four novel T cell autoantigens and personal autoreactive profiles in multiple sclerosis [PDF]

, 2022
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS), in which pathological T cells, likely autoimmune, play a key role. Despite its central importance, the autoantigen repertoire remains largely uncharacterized. Using a
