Mucocutaneous disease activity and damage accrual in systemic lupus erythematosus: analyses from the Asia‐Pacific Lupus Collaboration longitudinal cohort study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective This research article aims to describe the prevalence, associations and health‐related quality‐of‐life (HRQoL) impact of mucocutaneous features of SLE. Methods Data from the Asia‐Pacific Lupus Collaboration cohort were analysed (2013‐2021). Mucocutaneous activity (MC‐A) items were rash, alopecia and mucosal ulcers; defined by the SLEDAI‐2K ...

Persistent but dysfunctional mucosal SARS-CoV-2-specific IgA and low lung IL-1β associate with COVID-19 fatal outcome: A cross-sectional analysis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
The role of the mucosal pulmonary antibody response in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outcome remains unclear. Here, we found that in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples from 48 patients with severe COVID-19-infected with the ancestral Wuhan virus,

The transfer of IgA from mucus to plasma and the implications for diagnosis and control of nematode infections [PDF]

, 2014
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) activity has been associated with reduced growth and fecundity of Teladorsagia circumcincta. IgA is active at the site of infection in the abomasal mucus. However, while IgA activity in abomasal mucus is not easily measured in live

Lipid Nanoparticles for the Delivery of CRISPR/Cas9 Machinery to Enable Site‐Specific Integration of CFTR and Mutation‐Agnostic Disease Rescue

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) are optimized to co‐deliver Cas9‐encoding messenger RNA (mRNA), a single guide RNA (sgRNA) targeting the endogenous cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, and homologous linear double‐stranded donor DNA (ldsDNA) templates encoding CFTR.

CCR2⁺CD103⁻ intestinal dendritic cells develop from DC-committed precursors and induce interleukin-17 production by T cells [PDF]

, 2014
The identification of intestinal macrophages (m phi s) and dendritic cells (DCs) is a matter of intense debate. Although CD103(+) mononuclear phagocytes (MPs) appear to be genuine DCs, the nature and origins of CD103(-) MPs remain controversial.

Mucosal Immunity/Mucosal Vaccine

Nippon Shokuhin Kagaku Kogaku Kaishi, 2009
ヒトや動物には，外敵から身体を守るために免疫系が備わっている．多くのウイルスや病原菌の侵入口である粘膜面には効果的な「粘膜免疫」が存在し，抗原特異的分泌型IgA応答や細胞障害性T細胞（CTL）を誘導する．各粘膜は共通粘膜免疫機構（common mucosal immune system（CMIS））により関連をもち，ある粘膜組織で誘導されたIgA産生細胞やCTLは他の粘膜組織にも帰巣（ホーミング）する．とくに，分泌型IgA産生細胞は，腸管関連リンパ組織（GALT），鼻咽頭関連リンパ組織（NALT）および気管支関連リンパ組織（BALT）などの誘導組織（inductive site）で誘導され，実効組織（effector site）である腸管粘膜固有層，呼吸器粘膜固有層，乳腺，涙腺，唾液腺 ...

Interplay Between Oral Microbiota and Mouth Health in People Living With HIV Under Antiretroviral Therapy With or Without Periodontitis

International Journal of Dentistry
People living with HIV (PLWH) in combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) face microbiota shifts linked to immune status, ART regimen, and periodontal diseases, which are capable of inducing local and systemic inflammation.

Rectal Microbiome Composition Correlates with Humoral Immunity to HIV-1 in Vaccinated Rhesus Macaques. [PDF]

, 2019
The microbiome is an integral and dynamic component of the host and is emerging as a critical determinant of immune responses; however, its influence on vaccine immunogenicity is largely not well understood.

Biomimetic Nanovaccine Integrating Dendritic Cell Exosomes with Tumor Cell Membranes for Sustained Prophylaxis Against Glioblastoma

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We have developed DEX/GM, an all‐natural, personalizable hybrid vaccine designed by coating dendritic cell‐derived exosomes (DEX) onto tumor cell membranes (GM) for sustained prophylaxis against glioblastoma (GBM). ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM), one of the most aggressive and lethal brain tumors, remains incurable with a poor clinical prognosis.
