Paeoniflorin improves autoimmune myocarditis in young rat by inhibiting CXCR5 to reduce follicular helper T cells

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2022
In the current study, we aimed to investigate the effect of paeoniflorin on autoimmune myocarditis. A total of 72 young Lewis rats were randomly divided into control, experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM), paeoniflorin low dose (Pae-L 20 mg/kg ...

The role of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases in the regulation of adipocyte lipolysis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
This study assessed the effects of selective inhibitors of 3′,5′-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) on adipocyte lipolysis. IC224, a selective inhibitor of type 1 phosphodiesterase (PDE1), suppressed lipolysis in murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes (69.6 ±

Vaccination with a shared oncogenic tumor-self antigen elicits a population of CD8+ T cells with a regulatory phenotype

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2022
Cancer immunotherapy is a powerful tool for inducing antigen-specific antitumor cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). Next-generation strategies may include vaccination against overexpressed oncogenic tumor-self antigens.

ICOS costimulation is indispensable for the differentiation of T follicular regulatory cells

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2023
ICOS signaling promotes T follicular regulatory cell differentiation during germinal center reaction safeguarding against autoantibody production. ICOS is a T-cell costimulatory receptor critical for Tfh cell generation and function. However, the role of

RGIFE: a ranked guided iterative feature elimination heuristic for the identification of biomarkers

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2017
Background Current -omics technologies are able to sense the state of a biological sample in a very wide variety of ways. Given the high dimensionality that typically characterises these data, relevant knowledge is often hidden and hard to identify ...

Ikzf2 Regulates the Development of ICOS+ Th Cells to Mediate Immune Response in the Spleen of S. japonicum-Infected C57BL/6 Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
BackgroundTh cells (helper T cells) have multiple functions in Schistosoma japonicum (S. japonicum) infection. Inducible co-stimulator (ICOS) is induced and expressed in activated T lymphocytes, which enhances the development of B cells and antibody ...
