Insight into lymphoid tissue morphogenesis
Secondary lymphoid organs (SLO) are crucial structures for immune-surveillance and rapid immune responses allowing resident lymphocytes to encounter antigen-presenting cells that carry antigens from peripheral tissues. These structures develop during embryonic life through a tightly regulated process that involves interactions between haematopoietic ...

The avian lung-associated immune system [PDF]
The lung is a major target organ for numerous viral and bacterial diseases of poultry. To control this constant threat birds have developed a highly organized lung-associated immune system.

Oligonucleotide that binds nuclear factor NF-kappa-B acts as a lymphoid-specific and inducible enhancer element [PDF]
The immunoglobulin kappa light chain gene contains a lymphoid-specific enhancer that includes several short protein-binding sequences. The sequence that binds the nuclear factor NF-kappa B was tested for its ability to act independently as an enhancer ...

Organogenesis of lymphoid tissues
The development of lymphoid organs depends on the correct expression of several molecules within a defined timeframe during ontogeny. Although this is an extremely complex process, with each secondary lymphoid tissue requiring subtly different signals, a common framework for lymphoid development is beginning to emerge. Drawing on studies of lymph nodes,

MALT1, BCL10 and FOXP1 in salivary gland mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphomas [PDF]
In view of the certain anatomic site-dependent frequency of chromosomal translocations involved in extranodal marginal zone B cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) pathogenesis, 17 salivary gland MALT lymphoma cases were ...

Lymphoid tissue inducer cells [PDF]
What are they? Lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi) cells are a hematopoietic cell type with critical roles in the immune system during both the embryonic and adult stages of development. Their distinguishing features are expression of RORγt and IL-7Rα in the absence of lineage markers (e.g. CD3, CD19, B220, CD11c, Gr-1).

Type 2 Innate Lymphoid Cells in Allergic Disease. [PDF]
Type II innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) are a novel population of lineage-negative cells that produce high levels of Th2 cytokines IL-5 and IL-13. ILC2 are found in human respiratory and gastrointestinal tissue as well as in skin.

The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity
TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since
