The effects of splenic irradiation on lymphocyte subpopulations in chronic B-lymphocytic leukemia [PDF]

, 1988
We describe the effect of splenic irradiation (SI) (0,5–1 Gy weekly) on lymphocyte subpopulations for 7 patients with progressive B chronic B-lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL).

AutoSpill is a principled framework that simplifies the analysis of multichromatic flow cytometry data

Nature Communications, 2021
Flow cytometry allows the simultaneous quantification of many markers in and on a cell, but the analysis of such data is complicated. Here, the authors propose AutoSpill, a framework that facilitates the analysis of such data by automating parts of the ...

T-follicular regulatory cells expand to control germinal center plasma cell output but fail to curb autoreactivity

iScience
Summary: Autoantibodies generated in germinal centers (GCs) contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. GCs are controlled by specialized FoxP3+ T-follicular regulatory cells (Tfr), but their role in established autoimmunity is unclear.

Escherichia coli Heat-Labile Enterotoxin B Limits T Cells Activation by Promoting Immature Dendritic Cells and Enhancing Regulatory T Cell Function

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Treatments to limit T cell activation are essential for managing autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. The B subunit of Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin (EtxB) is known to ameliorate inflammatory disease in vivo but the mechanism by which this ...

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

Frontiers 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 ...

Polypyrimidine tract-binding proteins are essential for B cell development

eLife, 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

Nature 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.

In vitro immunosuppressive effects of FR 900506 on human T lymphocyte alloactivation [PDF]

, 1987
FR 900506 (FR) is a new immunosuppressive drug which prolongs allograft survival. Our studies have compared the in vitro inhibitory effects of FR and cyclosporine (CsA) on human lymphocyte proliferation.

JC virus-DNA detection is associated with CD8 fffector accumulation in peripheral blood of patients with multiple sclerosis under natalizumab treatment, independently from JC virus serostatus [PDF]

, 2018
Although natalizumab (anti-α4 integrin) represents an effective therapy for relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), it is associated with an increased risk of developing progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), caused by the polyomavirus ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.
