Intersection of systemic lupus erythematosus and autoimmune thyroid disease: Shared pathophysiology, epidemiology, diagnosis, and management

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
A proposed mechanistic framework of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) pathogenesis. In Stage 1, genetically susceptible individuals harbor risk variants within major histocompatibility complex (HLA) and non‐HLA loci that impair central and peripheral immune tolerance mechanisms within the thymic and peripheral ...

Efficient processing of an antigenic sequence for presentation by MHC class I molecules depends on its neighboring residues in the protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Processing of endogenously synthesized proteins generates short peptides that are presented by MHC class I molecules to CD8 T lymphocytes. Here it is documented that not only the sequence of the presented peptide but also the residues by which it is ...

T-Cell Stimulation by Melanoma RNA-Pulsed Dendritic Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
In situations where well-established approaches such as surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy fail to help cancer patients, immunotherapy has the potential to be an effective alternative.

Genomic Assessment of Reintroduced African Wild Dogs Informs Conservation Translocations

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Few reintroduction and translocation programs incorporate genomic assessments into management planning, despite ongoing debate over how founder individuals should be selected. Here, we assess the genomic composition of reintroduced African wild dog (Lycaon pictus) populations in private reserves in South Africa, comparing them with a free‐roaming ...

Immunological basis of differences in disease resistance in the chicken [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Genetic resistance to diseases is a multigenic trait governed mainly by the immune system and its interactions with many physiologic and environmental factors.

Pregnancy: an immune challenge

open access: yesSemina: Ciências Biológicas e da Saúde, 2014
Several studies demonstrate the importance of immunological aspects of pregnancy. During pregnancy, the embryo is implanted in the womb, where it will develop until the end of pregnancy.

Novel Bispecific Engagers Targeting the CεmX Domain of mIgE‐Expressing Cells

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
We developed bispecific TCE & NKCE targeting the CεmX domain of mIgE to eliminate IgE‐producing cells. Both constructs demonstrated potent, specific, dose‐dependent cytotoxicity and selective immune activation in vitro. These results highlight their promise as off‐the‐shelf, potentially curative therapeutics for IgE‐associated allergic diseases ...

Impaired Intracellular Transport and Cell Surface Expression of Nonpolymorphic HLA-E [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The assembly of the classical, polymorphic major histocompatibility complex class I molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum requires the presence of peptide ligands and ~2-microglobulin (~2m). Formation of this trimolecular complex is a prerequisite for e~

Durable remission of renal cell carcinoma in conjuncture with graft versus host disease following allogeneic stem cell transplantation and donor lymphocyte infusion: rule or exception?

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) followed by donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) can be applied as immunotherapeutic intervention to treat malignant diseases.
