The Immune System Is a Natural Target for Estrogen Action: Opposing Effects of Estrogen in Two Prototypical Autoimmune Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2016
Analogous to other physiological systems, the immune system also demonstrates remarkable sex differences. Although the reasons for sex differences in immune responses are not precisely understood, it potentially involves differences in sex hormones ...

Epi-drugs in combination with immunotherapy: a new avenue to improve anticancer efficacy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Immune checkpoint factors, such as programmed cell death protein-1/2 (PD-1, PD-2) or cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) receptors, are targets for monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) developed for cancer immunotherapy.

Disturbed Systemic Immune Balance in Periodontal Disease

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 1998
To the editorSir; Human periodontitis is a disease caused by some bacterial infections. In etiopathogene-sis, the role of disturbed local and systemic immunoregulatory mechanisms have drawn the attention. Down-regulation of local T-suppressor cells was commented as the cause of enhanced local immunoglobulin production (1).

The Role of Molecular Flexibility in Antigen Presentation and T Cell Receptor-Mediated Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Antigen presentation is a cellular process that involves a number of steps, beginning with the production of peptides by proteolysis or aberrant synthesis and the delivery of peptides to cellular compartments where they are loaded on MHC class I (MHC-I ...
