Variable Increased Expression of Program Death‐1 and Program Death‐1 Ligands on Peripheral Mononuclear Cells Is Not Impaired in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2009
Programmed death‐1 (PD‐1) was shown to deliver an inhibitory signal after binding to its ligands, PD‐L1 (B7‐H1) or PD‐L2 (B7‐DC). Recently, up‐regulated expression of PD‐1 molecule and/or its ligands was demonstrated in human diseases including rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory colitis.

Increased Risk of Sarcomas in Children With Congenital Anomalies: Findings From the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Registry Linkage Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumors that contribute disproportionately to cancer mortality in children. Although congenital anomalies are among the strongest known risk factors for childhood cancer, the risk of specific sarcoma subtypes among affected individuals has not yet been thoroughly evaluated.

PD-L1 Co-Stimulation Contributes to Ligand-Induced T Cell Receptor Down-Modulation on \(CD8^+\) T Cells [PDF]

, 2013
T cell receptor (TCR) down-modulation after antigen presentation is a fundamental process that regulates TCR signal transduction. Current understanding of this process is that intrinsic TCR/CD28 signal transduction leads to TCR down-modulation.

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Programmed death-1 checkpoint blockade in acute myeloid leukemia [PDF]

Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy, 2015
Immune checkpoints are regulatory pathways induced in activated T lymphocytes that regulate antigen responsiveness. These immune checkpoints are hijacked by tumors to promote dysfunction of anti-tumor effector cells and consequently of tumor escape from the host immune system.Programmed death-1/programmed death ligand (PD-1/PDL-1), a checkpoint pathway,

Apoptotic epitope-specific CD8+ T cells and interferon signaling intersect in chronic hepatitis C virus infection [PDF]

, 2015
CD8(+) T cells specific to caspase-cleaved antigens derived from apoptotic T cells represent a principal player in chronic immune activation (CIA). Here, we found that both apoptotic epitope (AE)-specific and hepatitis C virus (HCV)-specific CD8(+) T ...
