Hepatitis C virus (HCV) can be cleared naturally in a subset of individuals. However, the asymptomatic nature of acute HCV infection makes the study of the early immune response and defining the correlates of protection challenging.

The inhibitory immune checkpoints HLA‐G and CD47 are expressed on certain tumor types and inhibit immune cells in the tumor microenvironment. DSP216 binds specifically to cancer cells expressing both HLA‐G and CD47, and blocks their inhibitory signaling.

IgM and IgD B cell receptors differentially respond to endogenous antigens and control B cell fate. [PDF]
Naive B cells co-express two BCR isotypes, IgM and IgD, with identical antigen-binding domains but distinct constant regions. IgM but not IgD is downregulated on autoreactive B cells. Because these isotypes are presumed to be redundant, it is unknown how

Microwave ablation (MWA) represents a highly effective and clinically significant therapeutic modality for the treatment of liver metastases. This study develops engineered cell membrane vesicles to specifically target the transition zone of MWA for liver metastases. This strategy can inhibit VEGF‐mediated immunosuppression, block CD155/TIGIT signaling

IgG subclasses and allotypes: from structure to effector functions
Of the five immunoglobulin isotypes, Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is most abundant in human serum. The four subclasses, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4 which are highly conserved, differ in their constant region, particularly in their hinges and upper CH2 domains ...

Immunoglobulin T from sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.): Molecular characterization, tissue localization and expression after nodavirus infection [PDF]
Background Immunoglobulins (Igs) are fundamental components of the adaptive immune system of vertebrates, with the IgT/IgZ isotype specific of Teleosts.

This study demonstrates that somatic PIK3CA mutations suppress PPT1 expression via activation of the PI3K–AKT–c‐JUN axis. This reduction in PPT1 weakens its interaction with P300, thereby increasing palmitoylation at C1176 of P300 and protecting P300 from lysosomal degradation.

Pro‐Inflammatory c‐Met+ CD4 T Cells in Multiple Sclerosis
Objective Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) binds exclusively the c‐Met surface receptor, and the HGF/c‐Met axis regulates T cell function in autoimmune diseases. We analyzed c‐Met expression on human CD4 T cells in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) versus non‐inflammatory neurological disease (NIND), to ...

A phase 2 trial of hydroxychloroquine in individuals at risk for rheumatoid arthritis
Background Individuals with serum elevations of anti‐cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti‐CCP) antibodies are at increased risk for future rheumatoid arthritis (RA). No pharmacologic interventions have been approved for the prevention of RA in such ‘at‐risk’ individuals. However, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is used without supporting clinical trial evidence.

Anti-citrullinated protein antibodies (ACPA) and rheumatoid factor (RF) are the most commonly used diagnostic markers of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). These antibodies are predominantly of the immunoglobulin (Ig) M (RF) or IgG (ACPA) isotype. Other subtypes
