Shared determinants between virus-infected and trinitrophenyl-conjugated H-2-identical target cells detected in cell-mediated lympholysis [PDF]
Infection of H-2-identical mice with either lymphocytic choriomeningitis (LCM) virus, vaccinia virus, or paramyxo (Sendai) virus resulted in the generation of specifically sensitized cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL).

There is global immunosuppression during CML initiation and progression, which is directly driven by BCR–ABL1 expressing CML cells. On one hand, the BCR–ABL1 oncogene drives the differentiation of leukemia cells toward the neutrophil lineage. On the other hand, the oncogene also transcriptionally activates master immune regulators, including arginase ...

High antigen levels induce an exhausted phenotype in a chronic infection without impairing T cell expansion and survival. [PDF]
Chronic infections induce T cells showing impaired cytokine secretion and up-regulated expression of inhibitory receptors such as PD-1. What determines the acquisition of this chronic phenotype and how it impacts T cell function remain vaguely understood.

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.

PD‐L1‐Binding Antigen Presenters: Redirecting Vaccine‐Induced Antibodies for Cancer Immunotherapy
The PBAP‐gE complex anchors gE antigen to PD‐L1 on tumor cells. Vaccine‐induced anti‐gE antibodies simultaneously engage FcγRIIIa on NK cells and tumor‐bound PBAP‐gE, triggering NK cell activation and antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity, thereby selectively eliminating PD‐L1–expressing tumor cells.

Solid Organ Transplant–associated Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis, United States, 2011
Three clusters of organ transplant–associated lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) transmissions have been identified in the United States; 9 of 10 recipients died. In February 2011, we identified a fourth cluster of organ transplant–associated LCMV

Neutralization of IFN-γ reverts clinical and laboratory features in a mouse model of macrophage activation syndrome. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The pathogenesis of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is not clearly understood: a large body of evidence supports the involvement of mechanisms similar to those implicated in the setting of primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis ...

Constitutive interferon (IFN) production is regulated by microbiota and essential for optimal immune responses. Here, we demonstrate that expression of the glycoprotein of LCM virus upregulates constitutive IFN‐β levels and IFN‐stimulated genes (ISGs) in transgenic mice.

Pet Rodents and Fatal Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis in Transplant Patients
In April 2005, 4 transplant recipients became ill after receiving organs infected with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV); 3 subsequently died. All organs came from a donor who had been exposed to a hamster infected with LCMV.

Arenavirus budding resulting from viral-protein-associated cell membrane curvature [PDF]
Viral replication occurs within cells, with release (and onward infection) primarily achieved through two alternative mechanisms: lysis, in which virions emerge as the infected cell dies and bursts open; or budding, in which virions emerge gradually from
