ABSTRACT Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is one of the most important opportunistic pathogens in immunocompromised individuals, including allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo‐HSCT) recipients. In allo‐HSCT, HCMV seropositivity of the recipient and donor is associated with inferior survival outcomes, and post‐transplant HCMV reactivation is

From Development to Aging: Dynamic Roles of the Thymic Medulla in T Cell Biology
ABSTRACT The thymic medulla is essential for establishing central tolerance, orchestrating the development of a diverse yet self‐tolerant T cell repertoire, and preventing autoimmunity. This process is primarily mediated through interactions between developing thymocytes and antigen‐presenting cells, including thymic epithelial cells (TECs) and ...

Little is known of the transcriptional events controlling the differentiation and function of dendritic cells (DC). We found that the ligand-activated transcription factor Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptor γ (PPARγ) is immediately upregulated ...

Invariant NKT cells regulate the CD8 T cell response during Theiler's virus infection.
Invariant NKT cells are innate lymphocytes with a broad tissue distribution. Here we demonstrate that iNKT cells reside in the central nervous system (CNS) in the absence of inflammation.

Mixed Signals: T Cells as Architects of IgE Immunity
ABSTRACT Food allergen‐specific IgE can cause significant pathology, yet the pathways that generate pathogenic, high‐affinity IgE remain incompletely understood. Increasing evidence suggests that IgE responses arise from the integration of multiple, and sometimes opposing, T cell–derived cues.

miR-17-92 family clusters control iNKT cell ontogenesis via modulation of TGF-β signaling [PDF]
Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT) cells are T lymphocytes displaying innate effector functions, acquired through a distinct thymic developmental program regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs).

CD1d-restricted invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are innate-type lymphocytes that express a T-cell receptor (TCR) containing an invariant α chain encoded by the Vα14 gene in mice and Vα24 gene in humans.

Leishmania Extracellular Vesicles as a Preventive Vaccine Platform Against Leishmaniasis
The potential of Leishmania‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) as a vaccine platform was investigated, emphasizing an affordable, GMP‐compliant production and purification method. Immunization with EV vaccines, either unadjuvanted or combined with α‐galactosylceramide (αGC), induced robust humoral and cellular immune responses, conferring protection ...

MiR150 over-expression impairs iNKT cell development, maturation, and function
CD1d-restricted invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells play an important role in the regulation of diverse immune responses. MicroRNAs have been shown to be critically involved in iNKT cell development, maturation, and function, but the roles of ...

Chronic alcohol consumption enhances iNKT cell maturation and activation
Alcohol consumption exhibits diverse effects on different types of immune cells. NKT cells are a unique T cell population and play important immunoregulatory roles in different types of immune responses.
