Immunodeficiency and the gut

Medicine, 2003
Gastrointestinal diseases associated with impaired immunity are largely infectious, although an increased incidence of extranodal lymphoma is also found in the context of HIV infection. The range of such infections is related to the role of CD4-positive T cells in their eradication. Infections tend to occur with organisms of limited virulence and to be

Dramatic Rise in Plasma Viremia after CD8+ T Cell Depletion in Simian Immunodeficiency Virus–infected Macaques

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1999
To determine the role of CD8+ T cells in controlling simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) replication in vivo, we examined the effect of depleting this cell population using an anti-CD8 monoclonal antibody, OKT8F. There was on average a 99.9% reduction of

Thermal proteome profiling and proteome analysis using high‐definition mass spectrometry demonstrate modulation of cholesterol biosynthesis by next‐generation galeterone analog VNPP433‐3β in castration‐resistant prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Elevated level of cholesterol is positively correlated to prostate cancer development and disease severity. Cholesterol‐lowering drugs, such as statins, are demonstrated to inhibit prostate cancer. VNPP433‐3β interrupts multiple signaling and metabolic pathways, including cholesterol biosynthesis, AR‐mediated transcription of several oncogenes, mRNA 5′

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.

Targeting the AKT/mTOR pathway attenuates the metastatic potential of colorectal carcinoma circulating tumor cells in a murine xenotransplantation model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dual targeting of AKT and mTOR using MK2206 and RAD001 reduces tumor burden in an intracardiac colon cancer circulating tumor cell xenotransplantation model. Analysis of AKT isoform‐specific knockdowns in CTC‐MCC‐41 reveals differentially regulated proteins and phospho‐proteins by liquid chromatography coupled mass spectrometry. Circulating tumor cells

Impact of Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases on the Life Experiences of Patients in Malaysia From the Caregivers’ Perspective: A Qualitative Study

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
IntroductionPrimary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are chronic diseases that affect the various aspects of a patient’s life. However, the impact of living with PIDs is poorly described.ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore the living experience ...

Therapeutic applications of a novel humanized monoclonal antibody targeting chemokine receptor CCR9 in pancreatic cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
C–C chemokine receptor type 9 (CCR9) is an immune checkpoint in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Novel anti‐CCR9 antibody SRB2 was evaluated in combination with cytotoxic chemotherapy in PDAC cells, patient‐derived organoids, patient‐derived xenografts, and humanized mouse models.

Immune checkpoint deficiencies and autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndromes

Biomedical Journal, 2021
Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is an inherited non-malignant and non-infectious lymphoproliferative syndrome caused by mutations in genes affecting the extrinsic apoptotic pathway (FAS, FASL, CASP10).

Autoinflammation and immunodeficiency [PDF]

Pediatric Rheumatology, 2014
Autoinflammatory diseases are characterized by more or less spontaneous inflammation without inciting infection or autoimmunity. These can be either acquired or genetically determined. The latter –hereditary– autoinflammatory syndromes have been classified by some as primary immunodeficiencies: defects affecting the control of the innate arm of the ...

Immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders: time for reappraisal?

Blood, 2018
Immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders (IA-LPDs) are pathologically and clinically heterogeneous. In many instances, similar features are shared by a spectrum of IA-LPDs in clinically diverse settings.
