Conjunctival Inflammation in Thrombospondin-1 Deficient Mouse Model of Sjögren’s Syndrome [PDF]

, 2014
Lacrimal gland inflammation during autoimmune Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) leads to ocular surface inflammation – Keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS). This condition afflicts both the cornea and conjunctiva that form the ocular surface.

Neural modulation of ocular immunity: Exploring a sympathetic‐macrophage neuroimmune link in the human ciliary body

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Using microscopy and 3D confocal imaging on seven cadaveric eyes, we identified sympathetic nerves closely associated with β₂‐adrenergic receptor‐expressing macrophages in the human ciliary body (CB). These findings suggest a sympathetic‐macrophage neuroimmune link in the CB, potentially influencing ocular inflammation and degeneration, warranting ...

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

Nitrate Prevents Sjögren's Disease by Modulating T Helper Cells via NF‐κB Pathway Suppression

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Sjögren's disease (SjD) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by abnormal T helper (Th) cell distribution in the salivary glands (SGs). Although nitrate can regulate immune responses and preserve SGs function, its preventive effects on SjD remain unexplored.

Outcome and Toxicity Profile of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Adrenal Tumours in Dogs

Veterinary and Comparative Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has become a non‐invasive alternative option for canine adrenal tumours with high surgical risks; however, its clinical benefits and risks are still to be fully understood. The goal of this multi‐institutional retrospective study was to describe the clinical outcome and safety of SBRT for the ...

Lacrimal Gland Inflammation as the First Manifestation of Adult-onset Still’s Disease

Annals of Rheumatology and Autoimmunity
Adult-onset Still’s disease (AOSD) is a systemic idiopathic autoinflammatory disorder with rare ocular involvement. Few cases in the literature reported lacrimal gland inflammation as a manifestation of AOSD.
