Primary immunodeficiency for the primary care provider [PDF]

Paediatrics & Child Health, 2016
Primary immunodeficiencies are a group of heterogeneous disorders resulting from defects affecting the function of ≥1 parts of the immune system. Current estimates of the prevalence of primary immunodeficiency disease are one in 1200 patients. In Ontario, where the average general practitioner follows 1300 to 2000 patients, an estimated two patients ...

Pre-incubation of cell-free HIV-1 group M isolates with non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors blocks subsequent viral replication in co-cultures of dendritic cells and T cells. [PDF]

, 2005
In order to study the inhibitory effect of various reverse transcriptase inhibitors (RTIs) on cell-free HIV, we adapted a recently described in vitro system, based on co-cultures of dendritic cells and resting CD4 T cells, modelling early target cells ...

Ikaros family zinc finger 1 regulates dendritic cell development and function in humans

Nature Communications, 2018
IKZF1 is a transcription factor known to regulate mammalian B-cell development. Here the authors show that IKZF1 is required for human pDC development and regulation of DC cytokine production in patients with IKZF1 haploinsufficiency, findings which are ...

First Year of Israeli Newborn Screening for Severe Combined Immunodeficiency—Clinical Achievements and Insights

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), the most severe form of T cell immunodeficiency, is detectable through quantification of T cell receptor excision circles (TRECs) in dried blood spots obtained at birth.

Dual-acting stapled peptides target both HIV-1 entry and assembly [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Previously, we reported the conversion of the 12-mer linear and cell-impermeable peptide CAI to a cell-penetrating peptide NYAD-1 by using an i,i + 4 hydrocarbon stapling technique and confirmed its binding to the C-terminal domain (CTD ...

Immune defects in active mycobacterial diseases in patients with primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs)

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2011
Natural human immunity to the mycobacteria group, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) or nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), and/or Salmonella species, relies on the functional IL-12/23-IFN-γ integrity of macrophages ...

Defective germinal center selection results in persistence of self-reactive B cells from the primary to the secondary repertoire in Primary Antiphospholipid Syndrome

Nature Communications
Primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) is a life-threatening clotting disorder mediated by pathogenic autoantibodies. Here we dissect the origin of self-reactive B cells in human PAPS using peripheral blood and bone marrow of patients with triple ...
