Entry into the lytic cycle exposes EBV-infected cells to NK cell killing via upregulation of the MICB ligand for NKG2D and activation of the CD56bright and NKG2A+KIR+CD56dim subsets

Frontiers in Immunology
The Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is usually acquired during infancy as an asymptomatic infection and persists throughout life in a latent state under the control of the host immune system.

The interplay of comorbidity, disability, and physical activity among older adults living with HIV: insights from the CHANGE HIV study

BMC Geriatrics
Background Advances in treatment and care have extended the life expectancy of people living with HIV. Nevertheless, comorbidities are common and may result in health-related challenges, known as disability, in everyday life.

Cluster analysis of flowcytometric immunophenotyping with extended T cell subsets in suspected immunodeficiency

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, 2023
Background Patients with immunodeficiencies commonly experience diagnostic delays resulting in morbidity. There is an unmet need to identify patients earlier, especially those with high risk for complications.

LRBA deficiency impairs autophagy and contributes to enhanced antigen presentation and T-cell dysregulation

EMBO Reports
Reduced autophagy is associated with the aberrant humoral response observed in lipopolysaccharide-responsive beige-like anchor protein (LRBA) deficiency; however, the molecular mechanisms and their impact on T-cell responses remain poorly understood.

Autoantibodies against BAFF, APRIL or IL21 - an alternative pathogenesis for antibody-deficiencies?

BMC Immunology, 2017
Background The ability of anti-cytokine antibodies to play a disease-causing role in the pathogenesis of immunodeficiencies is widely accepted. The aim of this study was to investigate whether autoantibodies against BAFF (important B cell survival signal)
