The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

Immunological recognition by artificial neural networks [PDF]
, 2018 The binding affinity between the T-cell receptors (TCRs) and antigenic peptides mainly determines immunological recognition. It is not a trivial task that T cells identify the digital sequences of peptide amino acids by simply relying on the integrated binding affinity between TCRs and antigenic peptides. To address this problem, we examine whether the

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/

Smooth and probabilistic PARAFAC model with auxiliary covariates [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 In immunological and clinical studies, matrix-valued time-series data clustering is increasingly popular. Researchers are interested in finding low-dimensional embedding of subjects based on potentially high-dimensional longitudinal features and investigating relationships between static clinical covariates and the embedding.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

An Effective Membrane Model of the Immunological Synapse [PDF]
, 2003 The immunological synapse is a patterned collection of different types of receptors and ligands that forms in the intercellular junction between T Cells and antigen presenting cells (APCs) during recognition. The synapse is implicated in information transfer between cells, and is characterized by different spatial patterns of receptors at different ...

The Immunology of Schistosomiasis [PDF]
, 1969 Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the immunology of schistosomiasis. The only developments relating to innate immunity refer to the death of cercariae in the skin. Concomitant immunity has been shown to operate in a number of experimental systems, and there are encouraging reports that it may operate in human infections.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.
