The Immune Tolerance Network: tolerance at the crossroads [PDF]

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2001
Immune tolerance therapies are designed to reprogramme immune cells in a highly specific fashion in order to eliminate pathogenic responses but preserve normal immune function. A concept that has tantalized immunologists for decades, tolerogenic therapies would replace current lifelong immunosuppressive regimens and their often debilitating side ...

Advances in Human Immune System Mouse Models for Personalized Treg-Based Immunotherapies

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Immunodeficient mice engrafted with a functional human immune system [Human immune system (HIS) mice] have paved the way to major advances for personalized medicine and translation of immune-based therapies.

Challenges and Opportunities for Biomarkers of Clinical Response to AHSCT in Autoimmunity

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Autoimmunity represents a broad category of diseases that involve a variety of organ targets and distinct autoantigens. For patients with autoimmune diseases who fail to respond to approved disease-modifying treatments, autologous hematopoietic stem cell

Towards Immune Inspired Fault Tolerance in Embedded Systems [PDF]

, 2002
The immune system is a remarkable natural system that is proving to be of great inspiration to computer scientists and engineers alike. This paper discusses the role that the immune system can play in the development of fault tolerant embedded systems ...

Role of regulatory T cells in immune tolerance [PDF]

, 2009
In this present work, we investigated the role of dendritic cells (DC) and regulatory T cells (Treg) in immune tolerance as well as their potential in the treatment of autoimmune or graft versus host (GvH) diseases.

Interleukin-5 Mediates Parasite-Induced Protection against Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis: Association with Induction of Antigen-Specific CD4+CD25+ T Regulatory Cells

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
ObjectiveTo examine if the protective effect of parasite infection on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) was due to interleukin (IL)-5, a cytokine produced by a type-2 response that induces eosinophilia.

Helminths and immunological tolerance [PDF]

, 2014
Current immunosuppression regimens for solid-organ transplantation have shown disappointing efficacy in the prevention of chronic allograft rejection and carry unacceptable risks including toxicity, neoplasia, and life-threatening infection.

Incubation of Immune Cell Grafts With MAX.16H5 IgG1 Anti-Human CD4 Antibody Prolonged Survival After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in a Mouse Model for Fms Like Tyrosine Kinase 3 Positive Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Despite the constant development of innovative therapeutic options for hematological malignancies, the gold-standard therapy regimen for curative treatment often includes allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).

The Epitope-Specific Anti-human CD4 Antibody MAX.16H5 and Its Role in Immune Tolerance

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
T cell modulation in the clinical background of autoimmune diseases or allogeneic cell and organ transplantations with concurrent preservation of their natural immunological functions (e.g., pathogen defense) is the major obstacle in immunology.

Changes in Reactivity In Vitro of CD4+CD25+ and CD4+CD25− T Cell Subsets in Transplant Tolerance

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Transplant tolerance induced in adult animals is mediated by alloantigen-specific CD4+CD25+ T cells, yet in many models, proliferation of CD4+ T cells from hosts tolerant to specific-alloantigen in vitro is not impaired.
