CD160 Promotes NK Cell Functions by Upregulating Glucose Metabolism and Negatively Correlates With HIV Disease Progression

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Natural killer (NK) cells are crucial for immune responses to viral infections. CD160 is an important NK cell activating receptor, with unknown function in HIV infection.

Primary immunodeficiency [PDF]

Allergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2011
Primary immunodeficiency disorder (PID) refers to a heterogeneous group of over 130 disorders that result from defects in immune system development and/or function. PIDs are broadly classified as disorders of adaptive immunity (i.e., T-cell, B-cell or combined immunodeficiencies) or of innate immunity (e.g., phagocyte and complement disorders ...

Immunodeficiencies

Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 2009
SummaryPrimary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) are uncommon, chronic and severe disorders of the immune system in which patients cannot mount a sufficiently protective immune response, leading to an increased susceptibility to infections. The treatment of choice for PID patients with predominant antibody deficiency is intravenous immunoglobulin (Ig ...

Declining morbidity and mortality among patients with advanced human immunodeficiency virus infection.

New England Journal of Medicine, 1998
To the Editor: Palella et al. (March 26 issue)1 reported that the use of more intensive antiretroviral therapies is responsible for declines in both morbidity and mortality in patients with AIDS.

Autoimmunity in Immunodeficiency [PDF]

Current Allergy and Asthma Reports, 2013
Primary immunodeficiencies (PID) comprise a diverse group of clinical disorders with varied genetic defects. Paradoxically, a substantial proportion of PID patients develop autoimmune phenomena in addition to having increased susceptibility to infections from their impaired immunity.

Recurrent Vulvovaginal Candidiasis: Could It Be Related to Cell-Mediated Immunity Defect in Response to Candida Antigen? [PDF]

International Journal of Fertility and Sterility, 2017
Background Recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (RVVC) is a common cause of morbidity affecting millions of women worldwide. Patients with RVVC are thought to have an underlying immunologic defect.

Viral load and heterosexual transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1. Rakai Project Study Group.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2000
BACKGROUND AND METHODS We examined the influence of viral load in relation to other risk factors for the heterosexual transmission of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). In a community-based study of 15,127 persons in a rural district of Uganda,
