Autoimmune Comorbidities as Modifiers of Phenotypic Heterogeneity in Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy type 1 (FSHD1) shows clinical heterogeneity that is only partly explained by D4Z4 repeat unit (RU) size. Although immune and inflammatory mechanisms may contribute to disease variability, the prevalence and clinical impact of autoimmune diseases in FSHD remain unclear.

Table_2_Radiation therapy induces immunosenescence mediated by p90RSK.xlsx

open access: yes, 2022
Radiation therapy (RT) to the chest increases the patients’ risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). A complete understanding of the mechanisms by which RT induces CVD could lead to specific preventive, therapeutic approaches.

Associations of Frailty With the Risk of Incident Cancer and Cancer‐Related Mortality in Veterans With Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective This study investigated the association between frailty and cancer incidence and mortality in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It aimed to identify how frailty influences cancer risk and cancer‐specific outcomes. Methods This retrospective cohort study analyzed data from the Veterans’ Affairs Rheumatoid Arthritis Registry (2002–2023).

Enhancing flu vaccine responses in older adults: preliminary insights from the ISOLDA study on immunosenescence and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory approaches

open access: yesImmunity & Ageing
Aging is frequently characterized by an inadequate primary vaccine response, likely due to immunosenescence and inflamm-aging, a low-level, chronic inflammatory state.

Investigating population-level immunosenescence: From bench to bedside

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The immune response is remodeled with aging in a process called immunosenescence. Some immunologists conceive immunosenescence as an adaptation of immunity to the aged immune-environment rather than a merely collapsed reactivity of immune cells against ...

Robustness and Fragility in Immunosenescence

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2005
We construct a model to study tradeoffs associated with aging in the adaptive immune system, focusing on cumulative effects of replacing naive cells with memory cells. Binding affinities are characterized by a stochastic shape space model. System loss arising from an individual infection is associated with disease severity, as measured by the total ...

COPD as a Disease of Immunosenescence [PDF]

open access: yesYonsei Medical Journal, 2019
Although chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is regarded as a chronic inflammatory lung disease, the disease mechanism is still not known. Intriguingly, aging lungs are quite similar to COPD-affected lungs in many ways, and COPD has been viewed as a disease of accelerated premature aging of the lungs.

Immunosenescence in HIV infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Immunosenescence is the progressive loss of immune tissue that result from (i) functional, (ii) clonal or (iii) systemic changes to the cells or tissue that make up the immune system.

Sustained Delivery of a Shingles Subunit Vaccine Overcomes Age‐Related Declines in Humoral and Cellular Immunity Relative to Shingrix

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sustained delivery of a shingles subunit vaccine from an injectable polymer–nanoparticle hydrogel enhanced the potency, durability, and breadth of immune responses in aged mice while minimizing inflammatory cytokine production and reactogenicity. This strategy decouples immunogenicity from reactogenicity and offers a promising approach to improve ...
