Extended co-expression of inhibitory receptors by human CD8 T-cells depending on differentiation, antigen-specificity and anatomical localization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Inhibitory receptors mediate CD8 T-cell hyporesponsiveness against cancer and infectious diseases. PD-1 and CTLA-4 have been extensively studied, and blocking antibodies have already shown clinical benefit for cancer patients.

Direct Regulation of the T Cell Antigen Receptor's Activity by Cholesterol

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Biological membranes consist of hundreds of different lipids that together with the embedded transmembrane (TM) proteins organize themselves into small nanodomains.

Regulation of T cell lymphokine production by killer cell inhibitory receptor recognition of self HLA class I alleles. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The killer cell inhibitory receptors (KIRs) are surface glycoproteins expressed by natural killer (NK) and T cells that specifically recognize defined groups of polymorphic human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules.

Genomic donor cassette sharing during VLRA and VLRC assembly in jawless vertebrates

open access: yes, 2014
Lampreys possess two T-like lymphocyte lineages that express either variable lymphocyte receptor (VLR) A or VLRC antigen receptors. VLRA+ and VLRC+ lymphocytes share many similarities with the two principal T-cell lineages of jawed vertebrates expressing

libtissue - implementing innate immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In a previous paper the authors argued the case for incorporating ideas from innate immunity into articficial immune systems (AISs) and presented an outline for a conceptual framework for such systems.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Engineering Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cells for Racing in Solid Tumors: Don't Forget the Fuel. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
T-cells play a critical role in tumor immunity. Indeed, the presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes is a predictor of favorable patient prognosis for many indications and is a requirement for responsiveness to immune checkpoint blockade therapy ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Chimeric switch and inverted cytokine receptors in T cell therapy: reprogramming T cells to overcome immune suppression in the solid tumor microenvironment

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
Adoptive T cell therapy has transformed cancer treatment, with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy demonstrating remarkable clinical success in hematological malignancies.

Phenotypic T cell exhaustion in a murine model of bacterial infection in the setting of pre-existing malignancy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
While much of cancer immunology research has focused on anti-tumor immunity both systemically and within the tumor microenvironment, little is known about the impact of pre-existing malignancy on pathogen-specific immune responses.
