MHC-independent αβT cells: Lessons learned about thymic selection and MHC-restriction

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Understanding the generation of an MHC-restricted T cell repertoire is the cornerstone of modern T cell immunology. The unique ability of αβT cells to only recognize peptide antigens presented by MHC molecules but not conformational antigens is referred ...

Bone marrow monocytes sustain NK cell-poiesis during non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Natural killer (NK) cells are the predominant lymphocyte population in the liver. At the onset of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), an accumulation of activated NK cells is observed in the liver in parallel with inflammatory monocyte ...

Polypyrimidine tract-binding proteins are essential for B cell development

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTBP1) is a RNA-binding protein (RBP) expressed throughout B cell development. Deletion of Ptbp1 in mouse pro-B cells results in upregulation of PTBP2 and normal B cell development.

Epigenetic changes induced by in utero dietary challenge result in phenotypic variability in successive generations of mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Here the authors show that a high-fat diet in pregnant mice can release silencing of the imprinted Dlk1 locus in multiple generations of offspring.

Dynamic reorganisation of intermediate filaments coordinates early B-cell activation

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2018
This study examines the role of vimentin, a type III intermediate filament, in B-cell function using a combination of in vitro and in vivo assays, including super-resolution microscopic techniques.

New Insights into Epigenetic Regulation of T Cell Differentiation

open access: yesCells, 2021
Immature CD4− CD8− thymocytes progress through several developmental steps in the thymus, ultimately emerging as mature CD4+ (helper) or CD8+ (cytotoxic) T cells.

Jarid2 Coordinates Nanog Expression and PCP/Wnt Signaling Required for Efficient ESC Differentiation and Early Embryo Development

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Jarid2 is part of the Polycomb Repressor complex 2 (PRC2) responsible for genome-wide H3K27me3 deposition. Unlike other PRC2-deficient embryonic stem cells (ESCs), however, Jarid2-deficient ESCs show a severe differentiation block, altered colony ...

Research-based flow cytometry assays for pathogenic assessment in the human B-cell biology of gene variants revealed in the diagnosis of inborn errors of immunity: a Bruton’s tyrosine kinase case-study

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionInborn errors of immunity (IEI) are an expanding group of rare diseases whose field has been boosted by next-generation sequencing (NGS), revealing several new entities, accelerating routine diagnoses, expanding the number of atypical ...

Ezh2 Regulates Activation-Induced CD8+ T Cell Cycle Progression via Repressing Cdkn2a and Cdkn1c Expression

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Transition from resting to cell cycle in response to antigenic stimulation is an essential step for naïve CD8+ T cells to differentiate to effector and memory cells.

Tia1 dependent regulation of mRNA subcellular location and translation controls p53 expression in B cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Sequestering mRNA in cytoplasmic stress granules is a mechanism for translational repression. Here the authors find that p53 mRNA, present in stress granules in activated B lymphocytes, is released upon DNA damage and is translated in a CAP-independent ...
