Distinct Expression Patterns of Interleukin-22 Receptor 1 on Blood Hematopoietic Cells in SARS-CoV-2 Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The new pandemic virus SARS-CoV-2 is characterized by uncontrolled hyper-inflammation in severe cases. As the IL-22/IL-22R1 axis was reported to be involved in inflammation during viral infections, we characterized the expression of IL-22 receptor1, IL ...

Specific Host Signatures for the Detection of Tuberculosis Infection in Children in a Low TB Incidence Country

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) in children remains challenging due to unspecific clinical presentation and low bacillary load. In low TB incidence countries, most cases are diagnosed by a contact screening strategy after exposure to an index TB case. Due

The Human Penis Is a Genuine Immunological Effector Site

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
The human penis is a main portal of entry for numerous pathogens, and vaccines able to control resulting infections locally are highly desirable. However, in contrast to the gastrointestinal or vaginal mucosa, the penile immune system and mechanisms ...

Mucosal immunity and vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesNature Medicine, 2005
There is currently great interest in developing mucosal vaccines against a variety of microbial pathogens. Mucosally induced tolerance also seems to be a promising form of immunomodulation for treating certain autoimmune diseases and allergies. Here we review the properties of the mucosal immune system and discuss advances in the development of mucosal

Monoclonal antibody against EV71 3Dpol inhibits the polymerase activity of RdRp and virus replication

open access: yesBMC Immunology, 2019
Background Enterovirus A 71 (EV71) is a neurotropic virus that may lead to acute flaccid paralysis, encephalitis, cardiopulmonary failure or even death. No vaccine and defensive drug controlling EV71 is currently available, novel and efficient antiviral ...
