Natural killer (NK) cells for cancer immunotherapy: pluripotent stem cells-derived NK cells as an immunotherapeutic perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
Natural killer (NK) cells play an essential role in the fight against tumor development. Over the last years, the progress made in the NK cell biology field and in deciphering how NK cell function is regulated, is driving efforts to utilize NK cell-based

Normalizing and denoising protein expression data from droplet-based single cell profiling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Current single cell protein expression profiling approaches come with substantial measurement noise. Here the authors discover the sources of this noise and develop a denoising algorithm that improves data quality and downstream applications.

RANKL biology: bone metabolism, the immune system, and beyond

open access: yesInflammation and Regeneration, 2020
Receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) ligand (RANKL) induces the differentiation of monocyte/macrophage–lineage cells into the bone–resorbing cells called osteoclasts.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus as a disease of the β-cell (do not blame the immune system?)

open access: yesNature Reviews Endocrinology, 2020
Type 1 diabetes mellitus is believed to result from destruction of the insulin-producing β-cells in pancreatic islets that is mediated by autoimmune mechanisms. The classic view is that autoreactive T cells mistakenly destroy healthy (‘innocent’) β-cells.

Interactions Between the Microbiota and the Immune System

open access: yesScience, 2012
The large numbers of microorganisms that inhabit mammalian body surfaces have a highly coevolved relationship with the immune system. Although many of these microbes carry out functions that are critical for host physiology, they nevertheless pose the ...

Differences in Type 2 Fiber Composition in the Vastus Lateralis and Gluteus Maximus of Patients with Hip Fractures [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism
Background Aging leads to sarcopenia, which is characterized by reduced muscle mass and strength. Many factors, including altered muscle protein turnover, diminished neuromuscular function, hormonal changes, systemic inflammation, and the structure and ...
