Stem Cell-Based Disease Models for Inborn Errors of Immunity

open access: yesCells, 2021
The intrinsic capacity of human hematopoietic stem cells (hHSCs) to reconstitute myeloid and lymphoid lineages combined with their self-renewal capacity hold enormous promises for gene therapy as a viable treatment option for a number of immune-mediated ...

Improvement of Thymopoiesis after Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation by Cytokines: Translational studies in experimental animal models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AlloHSCT) is a powerful treatment modality that is frequently applied as part of treatment of hematological malignancies, aplastic anemia and inborn errors of hematopoietic progenitor cells.

Differences in IgG Sialylation Distinguish Asymptomatic from Symptomatic Anti‐Nuclear Antibody Positive Individuals

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective The transition from asymptomatic anti‐nuclear antibody (ANA) positivity to systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease (SARD) is associated with increased production of pro‐inflamamtory factors such as TNF‐α. Here we investigate whether the relative absence of inflammation in asymptomatic ANA+ individuals (ANA+NS) results from a lack of circulating

Pro-inflammatory signaling by IL-10 and IL-22: bad habit stirred up by interferons? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-22 are key members of the IL-10 cytokine family that share characteristic properties such as defined structural features, usage of IL-10R2 as one receptor chain, and activation of signal transducer and activator of ...

Serum cytokine profiling differentiates underlying diseases in cytokine storm syndrome

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Cytokine storm syndrome (CSS), commonly associated with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), is a fatal hyperinflammatory syndrome. Differentiating the underlying diseases responsible for CSS is essential for timely therapeutic decisions. This study explored the clinical usefulness of serum cytokine profiling in distinguishing underlying

Human inborn errors of immunity: diagnosis and management [PDF]

open access: yesExploration of Immunology
Primary immunodeficiency disease (PID) now known as inborn errors of immunity (IEI) is genetic disorder(s) that impair the immune system. IEI is a heterogeneous group of diseases of more than 485 lifelong genetic disorders mainly due to intrinsic defect ...

Chimerism and xenotransplantation: New concepts [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
In both transplant and infectious circumstances, the immune response is governed by migration and localization of the antigen. If the antigenic epitopes of transgenic xenografts are sufficiently altered to avoid evoking the destructive force of innate ...

Sjögren Disease—B Cells at the Brink: From Autoimmunity to Lymphomagenesis and the Rise of Novel B Cell‐Targeted Therapies

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Sjögren disease (SjD) is a common systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation of the exocrine glands, resulting in dryness. Patients frequently exhibit extraglandular manifestations affecting various organ systems. To date, there are no FDA‐approved disease‐modifying therapies for SjD.

Diagnostic implications and correlates of plasma ADA2 activity and ADA2 variants

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is a monogenic autoinflammatory disease manifested as polyarteritis nodosa, stroke, and bone marrow failure. Leveraging an international cohort of 200 DADA2 cases, we aimed to characterize the diagnostic utility of a plasma ADA2 enzyme activity assay and understand the implications of residual ADA2

STAT2 deficiency and susceptibility to viral illness in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Severe infectious disease in children may be a manifestation of primary immunodeficiency. These genetic disorders represent important experiments of nature with the capacity to elucidate nonredundant mechanisms of human immunity.
