From infancy and beyond… ensuring a lifetime of hepatitis B virus (HBV) vaccine-induced immunity

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2018
Despite the long-term efficacy and immune persistence observed following HBV vaccination of infants, the need for a booster dose following infant immunization continues to be deliberated.

Sequence Space Localization in the Immune System Response to Vaccination and Disease

open access: yes, 2003
We introduce a model of protein evolution to explain limitations in the immune system response to vaccination and disease. The phenomenon of original antigenic sin, wherein vaccination creates memory sequences that can \emph{increase} susceptibility to ...

Targeting p38α in cancer: challenges, opportunities, and emerging strategies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
p38α normally regulates cellular stress responses and homeostasis and suppresses malignant transformation. In cancer, however, p38α is co‐opted to drive context‐dependent proliferation and dissemination. p38α also supports key functions in cells of the tumor microenvironment, including fibroblasts, myeloid cells, and T lymphocytes.

Pulmonary resident memory T cells in respiratory virus infection and their inspiration on therapeutic strategies

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The immune system generates memory cells on infection with a virus for the first time. These memory cells play an essential role in protection against reinfection.

Modelling cross-reactivity and memory in the cellular adaptive immune response to influenza infection in the host

open access: yes, 2016
The cellular adaptive immune response plays a key role in resolving influenza infection. Experiments where individuals are successively infected with different strains within a short timeframe provide insight into the underlying viral dynamics and the ...

Predominance of weakly cytotoxic, T-betLowEomesNeg CD8+ T-cells in human gastrointestinal mucosa: implications for HIV infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The gastrointestinal mucosa is an important site of HIV acquisition, viral replication, and pathogenesis. Immune cells in mucosal tissues frequently differ in phenotype and function from their non-mucosal counterparts.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Nutrition, diet and immunosenescence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ageing is characterized by immunosenescence and the progressive decline in immunity in association with an increased frequency of infections and chronic disease.

Innate immune memory: An evolutionary perspective [PDF]

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, 2018
SummaryOver the last decades, there was increasing evidence for the presence of innate immune memory in living organisms. In this review, we compare the innate immune memory of various organisms with a focus on phylogenetics. We discuss the acquisition and molecular basis of immune memory and we describe the innate immune memory paradigm and its role ...

Network divergence analysis identifies adaptive gene modules and two orthogonal vulnerability axes in pancreatic cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumors contain diverse cellular states whose behavior is shaped by context‐dependent gene coordination. By comparing gene–gene relationships across biological contexts, we identify adaptive transcriptional modules that reorganize into distinct vulnerability axes.
