Conditional deletion of the multiple sclerosis susceptibility gene ATXN1 identifies cell‐autonomous effects in the B‐cell compartment

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ataxin‐1 is a polyglutamine protein associated with the etiology of spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) that has been recently found implicated in the risk of developing the autoimmune disorder multiple sclerosis (MS). Here, we took a conditional knockout approach to ablate ataxin‐1 exclusively in the B‐cell compartment and we found that this protein ...

Bordetella pertussisand Pertussis Vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Infectious Diseases, 2009
Bordetella pertussis is a human-specific pathogen that causes whooping cough. The use of pertussis whole-cell vaccines in infants and toddlers led to decreased circulation of the bacterium in the child population and a marked decrease in the incidence of the disease. However, vaccine does not result in life-long immunity; indeed, the circulation of the

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

MyD88 Deficiency Protects Mice From Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis by Influencing Both Dendritic Cells and T Cells

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the role of MyD88 in dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells during experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). We found that MyD88 is highly expressed in DCs and CD4+ T cells in people with multiple sclerosis, and its deficiency impairs DC maturation, reduces pro‐inflammatory cytokine production, weakens DC–T cell interactions ...
