A nongenomic mechanism for progesterone-mediated immunosuppression: Inhibition of K+ channels, Ca2+ signaling, and gene expression in T lymphocytes [PDF]
The mechanism by which progesterone causes localized suppression of the immune response during pregnancy has remained elusive. Using human T lymphocytes and T cell lines, we show that progesterone, at concentrations found in the placenta, rapidly and ...

To be (immunosuppressive) or not to be [PDF]
Singhal et al. characterized tumour-infiltrating monocyte and macrophage lineage cells in patients with early stage lung cancer and found that, contrary to data in mouse models, the function of these cells might not be primarily immunosuppressive.

Background Decreased monocytic (m)HLA-DR expression is the most studied biomarker of sepsis-induced immunosuppression. To date, little is known about the relationship between sepsis characteristics, such as the site of infection, causative pathogen, or ...

Monocyte Trajectories Endotypes Are Associated With Worsening in Septic Patients
Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. The immune system plays a key role in sepsis onset and remains dysregulated over time in a heterogeneous manner.

Mesenchymal stem cell-mediated T cell immunosuppression [PDF]
Besides being a pool forstromal cells and connective tissues, the mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as well exert a potent immunosuppression against almost all types of immune cells, particularly T cells.

Immune responses affiliated with COVID-19 severity have been characterized and associated with deleterious outcomes. These approaches were mainly based on research tools not usable in routine clinical practice at the bedside. We observed that a multiplex

Background Despite shortening vasopressor use in shock, hydrocortisone administration remains controversial, with potential harm to the immune system. Few studies have assessed the impact of hydrocortisone on the transcriptional response in shock, and we

Early herpes and TTV DNAemia in septic shock patients: a pilot study
Background Septic shock patients exhibit an increased incidence of viral reactivation. Precise timing of such reactivation—as an early marker of immune suppression, or as a consequence of the later—is not known precisely.

Macromolecular Immunosuppressants [PDF]
AbstractRecombinant immunosuppressants have come of age and represent a significant class of quite diverse drugs. They target extracellular molecules, and either label or inhibit them. Those targets are soluble factors or membrane proteins almost all of which are components of a very complex molecular network of communication and amplification. Notably,
