Immune Dysregulation in Immune Thrombocytopenia [PDF]
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a bleeding disorder characterized by low platelet counts due to decreased platelet production as well as increased platelet destruction by autoimmune mechanisms. A shift toward Th1 and possibly Th17 cells together with impaired regulatory compartment, including T-regulatory (Tregs) and B-regulatory (Bregs) cells, have ...

Commencing lifelong antiretroviral therapy (ART) immediately following HIV diagnosis (Option B+) has dramatically improved the health of HIV-infected women and their children, with the majority being of HIV-exposed children born uninfected (HEU).

Immune Dysregulation in Acute SARS-CoV-2 Infection
Introduction: Neutralizing antibodies have been shown to develop rapidly following SARS-CoV-2 infection, specifically against spike (S) protein, where cytokine release and production is understood to drive the humoral immune response during acute ...

Depression, dementia and immune dysregulation [PDF]
AbstractMajor depression is a prevalent illness that increases the risk of several neurological conditions. These include stroke, cardiovascular disease, and dementia including Alzheimer’s disease. In this review we ask whether certain types of depression and associated loneliness may be a harbinger of cognitive decline and possibly even dementia.

EPIGENETIC ALTERATIONS IN GENE EXPRESSION IN THE AGING IMMUNE SYSTEM
Immunosenescence or aging of the immune system is characterized by dysregulation of the innate and adaptive immune system mechanisms, associated with a systemic low-grade inflammation (i.e., «inflammaging»), non-effective protective humoral and cellular ...

Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Patients With Primary Immune Regulatory Disorders (PIRD): A Primary Immune Deficiency Treatment Consortium (PIDTC) Survey. [PDF]
Primary Immune Regulatory Disorders (PIRD) are an expanding group of diseases caused by gene defects in several different immune pathways, such as regulatory T cell function.

A nonconservative kinetic model under the action of an external force field for modeling the medical treatment of autoimmune response [PDF]
In this paper, we develop a new nonconservative kinetic framework to be applied for the study of immune system dysregulation. From the modeling viewpoint, the new kinetic model regards a system, composed of stochastically interacting agents, under the action of an eternal force field.

Lentivirus-induced immune dysregulation [PDF]
FIV/HIV infections are associated with an early robust humoral and cellular anti-viral immune response followed by a progressive immune suppression that eventually results in AIDS. Several mechanisms responsible for this immune dysfunction have been proposed including cytokine dysregulation, immunologic anergy and apoptosis, and inappropriate ...
