Is Zebrafish a Good Model for the Alpha‐Gal Syndrome?
ABSTRACT The alpha‐Gal syndrome (AGS) is an underdiagnosed tick‐borne allergy characterized by both immediate and delayed IgE‐mediated anaphylactic reactions to the galactose‐alpha‐1,3‐galactose (alpha‐Gal) epitope. Common manifestations include gastrointestinal, cutaneous, and respiratory symptoms appearing 2–6 h after the consumption of mammalian ...

Neutrophil extracellular traps mediate transfer of cytoplasmic neutrophil antigens to myeloid dendritic cells toward ANCA induction and associated autoimmunity. [PDF]
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCAs) target proteins normally retained within neutrophils, indicating that cell death is involved in the autoimmunity process. Still, ANCA pathogenesis remains obscure.

B Cells Expressing a Natural Polyreactive Autoantibody Have a Distinct Phenotype and Are Overrepresented in Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain Transgenic Mice [PDF]
Abstract Despite stringent regulation of disease-associated autoantibodies, a substantial proportion of circulating Abs in sera of healthy individuals exhibit self-reactivity. These Abs are referred to as naturally occurring or natural autoantibodies (NAAs).

Maternal IgE Influence on Fetal and Infant Health
ABSTRACT Immunoglobulin E (IgE) is the most recently discovered and evolved mammalian antibody type, best known for interacting with mast cells (MCs) as immune effectors. IgE‐mediated antigen sensing by MC provides protection from parasites, venomous animals, bacteria, and other insults to barrier tissues exposed to the environment.

In this article, we identify self‐reactive peripheral blood B cells in Sjögren's disease through a single‐cell culture system. We find 2‐ to 10‐fold increased frequencies of self‐reactive B cells during all stages of peripheral development in Sjögren's compared with healthy donors.

Common idiotypes expressed on human, monoclonal, abnormal immunoglobulins and cryoglobulins with polyreaetive autoantibody activities [PDF]
SUMMARYSeveral hutiian monoclonal immunoglobtilins with the same auloatitibody activity have been shown to have cross-reactive idiotypes (CRI). In this study, using polyclonal anti-idiotypic antibodies, we fotind that 28% of hutnan monoclonal immunoglobulins with polyreaetive autoantibody activity from myeloma.

Abstract Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by T cell‐mediated pancreatic β cell loss, resulting in lifelong absolute insulin deficiency and hyperglycaemia. Environmental factors are recognized as a key contributor to the development of T1D, with the gut serving as a primary interface for environmental stimuli.

Know Your ABCs: Discovery, Differentiation, and Targeting of T‐Bet+ B Cells
ABSTRACT Since their first description in 2008, T‐bet+ B cells have emerged as a clinically important B cell subset. Now commonly known as ABCs (Age‐associated B Cells), they are uniquely characterized by their expression of the transcription factor T‐bet. Indeed, this singular factor defines this B cell subset.
