This review explains how biomaterials and nanoparticles can be used to induce or modulate tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs), which are ectopic immune hubs that form in nonlymphoid tissues during chronic disease and cancer. By comparing different methods, the article highlights design principles for modeling TLSs or recapitulating specific TLS ...

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Rheumatic Diseases
Mucosal‐associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate‐like T cells defined by their semi‐invariant T cell receptor and restriction by the major histocompatibility complex class I–related molecule (MR1). These cells are primarily activated by microbial‐derived metabolites presented by MR1 or by cytokines.

Mesalazine-associated interstitial nephritis [PDF]
Abstract Background. When used for oral treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, Asacol (a coated form of mesalazine = 5-aminosalicylic acid) can cause interstitial nephritis. The spectrum of severity, frequency of occurrence and the best renal function test to detect this complication are not ...

Sjögren disease (SjD) is a common systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation of the exocrine glands, resulting in dryness. Patients frequently exhibit extraglandular manifestations affecting various organ systems. To date, there are no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)‐approved disease‐modifying therapies for SjD. In this review, we
