Persistent immune activation in CVID and the role of IVIg in its suppression
Frontiers in Immunology, 2014 Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is one of the most common and clinically important primary immune deficiencies. CVID patients have poor humoral immunity resulting in recurrent infections of the gastrointestinal and upper respiratory tracts, as ...

Regulatory T Cells in Autoimmmunity [PDF]
Annual Review of Immunology, 2000 Clonal deletion of autoreactive T cells in the thymus is not the sole mechanism for the induction of tolerance to self-antigens since partial depletion of peripheral CD4+T cells from neonatal and adult animals results in the development of organ-specific autoimmunity.

Targeting EZH2 Reprograms Intratumoral Regulatory T Cells to Enhance Cancer Immunity. [PDF]
, 2018 Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are critical for maintaining immune homeostasis, but their presence in tumor tissues impairs anti-tumor immunity and portends poor prognoses in cancer patients.

CpG and Interleukin-15 Synergize to Enhance IFN-γ Production by Activated CD8+ T Cells [PDF]
, 2012 Interleukin-15 (IL-15) regulates the development and maintenance of memory CD8+ T cells. Paradoxically, we previously reported that IL-15 could enhance CD8+ T-cell responses to IL-12, a proinflammatory cytokine required for optimal priming of effector ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

More Than Effects in Skin: Ultraviolet Radiation-Induced Changes in Immune Cells in Human Blood
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Cells of the skin and circulation are in constant two-way communication. Following exposure of humans to sunlight or to phototherapy, there are alterations in the number, phenotype and function of circulating blood cells.
