The role of acquired host immunity in periodontal diseases

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this narrative review is to relate the contribution of European researchers to the complex topic of the host immune system in periodontal disease, focusing on acquired immunity. Other chapters in this volume will address the genetics and autoantibody responses and other forms of immunity to periodontal disease.

The role of neutrophils in the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel diseases

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) encompasses a spectrum of chronic disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, with a potential bidirectional relationship with periodontitis. Neutrophils are key regulators of immune‐inflammatory responses and play a major role in both diseases.

Minor histocompatibility antigen UTY as target for graft-versus-leukemia and graft-versus-haematopoiesis in the canine model.

open access: yes, 2013
Male patients with female-stem-cell donors have better prognosis compared to female-to-male combinations due to Y-encoded minor histocompatibility antigens recognized by female-alloimmune-effector lymphocytes in the context of a graft-versus-leukemia ...

Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease

open access: yesVeterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.

A multi‐omics investigation of sarcopenia and frailty: Integrating genomic, epigenomic and telomere length data

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sarcopenia and frailty are complex geriatric syndromes influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Recent studies suggest that specific genetic variants, DNA methylation patterns and shortened telomeres are associated with age‐related diseases and might contribute to the development of both sarcopenia and frailty. In this

HAGE, a novel cancer/testis antigen with strong potential as a target for immunotherapy against cancers

open access: yes, 2007
Since van der Bruggen et al. (1991) first identified specific human tumour antigens of the MAGE family, numerous potential immunotherapeutic targets have been discovered, often belonging to the so-called cancer/testis (CT) gene family.

Impact of Leukocyte Function-Associated Antigen-1 Blockade on Endogenous Allospecific T Cells to Multiple Minor Histocompatibility Antigen Mismatched Cardiac Allograft.

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Blocking leukocyte function-associated antigen (LFA)-1 in organ transplant recipients prolongs allograft survival. However, the precise mechanisms underlying the therapeutic potential of LFA-1 blockade in preventing chronic rejection are not ...

Spontaneous regression of equine sarcoids is an exceptional event

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 4, Page 889-894, July 2026.
Abstract Sarcoids are benign, yet locally aggressive skin tumours that commonly affect horses and other equid species. The lesions are induced by bovine papillomavirus types 1, 2, and probably 13 in conjunction with other factors including trauma and a genetic predisposition.

Suppression extends to major histocompatibility antigens linked to tolerizing minor histocompatibility antigens, but not the other way round

open access: yes, 2005
'Active suppression', a mechanism of transplantation tolerance, can spread to newly introduced minor antigens once these antigens are linked to tolerizing antigens.

Improving long-term kidney allograft survival by rethinking HLA compatibility: from molecular matching to non-HLA genes

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
Optimizing immunologic compatibility in organ transplantation extends beyond the conventional approach of Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) antigen matching, which exhibits significant limitations.
