Extracellular Vesicles and Immune System in Ageing and Immune Diseases [PDF]
Experimental Neurobiology, 2021 Immune system is essential for host homeostasis. Immune cells communicate with each other by binding to receptors or by releasing vesicles including chemokines and cytokines. Under healthy circumstances, immune cell-derived factors are critical for cellular growth, division and function, whereas under conditions such as ageing and inflammatory states ...

Biology Bulletin Reviews, 2022 This review presents, in detail and from multiple angles, the classification of diseases of the immune system during different periods of a person’s life, including immune-associated and immune-dependent diseases, their phenomenology, disease triggers, and the mechanisms of regulation of immune reactivity.

The Innate Immune System in Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
International Journal of Cell Biology, 2013 Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the leading cause for dementia in the world. It is characterized by two biochemically distinct types of protein aggregates: amyloidβ(Aβ) peptide in the forms of parenchymal amyloid plaques and congophilic amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and aggregated tau protein in the form of intraneuronal neurofibrillary tangles (NFT).

The Role of the Immune System in Huntington’s Disease [PDF]
Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2013 Huntington’s disease (HD) is characterized by a progressive course of disease until death 15–20 years after the first symptoms occur and is caused by a mutation with expanded CAG repeats in the huntingtin (htt) protein. Mutant htt (mhtt) in the striatum is assumed to be the main reason for neurodegeneration.

The immune system on the TRAIL of Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2020 AbstractAlzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, characterized by progressive degeneration and loss of neurons in specific regions of the central nervous system. Chronic activation of the immune cells resident in the brain, peripheral immune cell trafficking across the blood-brain barrier, and release of inflammatory and neurotoxic

Prion Diseases and the Immune System
Clinical Immunology, 2000 Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies are caused by unusual infectious agents that are purported to contain a single type of macromolecule, a modified host glycoprotein. The term prion has been applied to this group of agents. Surprisingly, the immune system appears to behave as a Trojan's horse rather than a protective fortification during prion ...
