Engineering Tertiary Lymphoid Structures: Nanomedicine, Bioengineering, and Biomaterials for Precision Immunotherapy

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review explains how biomaterials and nanoparticles can be used to induce or modulate tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs), which are ectopic immune hubs that form in nonlymphoid tissues during chronic disease and cancer. By comparing different methods, the article highlights design principles for modeling TLSs or recapitulating specific TLS ...

Mucosal‐Associated Invariant T Cells in Rheumatic Diseases

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Mucosal‐associated invariant T (MAIT) cells are innate‐like T cells defined by their semi‐invariant T cell receptor and restriction by the major histocompatibility complex class I–related molecule (MR1). These cells are primarily activated by microbial‐derived metabolites presented by MR1 or by cytokines.

Characterization of Epstein-Barr viral strains in parotid gland saliva and peripheral blood of patients with primary Sjogren's syndrome and healthy EBV carriers [PDF]

, 1993
Increased Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) replication has been reported in the salivary and lacrimal glands in Sjögren's syndrome (SS). We studied whether or not certain EBV strains would occur preferentially in the peripheral blood and parotid gland saliva of ...

A Randomized, Placebo‐Controlled Trial of Hydroxychloroquine in Incomplete Lupus

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Patients with features of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who do not fulfill classification criteria can be designated as incomplete lupus erythematosus (ILE). This condition includes individuals with a high risk of progression to SLE. Treatment of ILE may reduce symptoms, severity, and incidence of SLE.

Sjögren Disease—B Cells at the Brink: From Autoimmunity to Lymphomagenesis and the Rise of Novel B Cell–Targeted Therapies

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Sjögren disease (SjD) is a common systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by inflammation of the exocrine glands, resulting in dryness. Patients frequently exhibit extraglandular manifestations affecting various organ systems. To date, there are no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)‐approved disease‐modifying therapies for SjD. In this review, we

Biomarkers of Lupus Nephritis Histopathology: Where Do We Stand?

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Lupus nephritis (LN) is characterized by a variable disease course, necessitating continuous monitoring. There is an urgent need to identify noninvasive biomarkers. By reviewing and critically assessing the quality of existing studies on LN biomarkers correlating with histopathology, we here explore the challenges in promoting their use in ...
