Distinct Roles of IL‐4, IL‐13, and IL‐22 in Human Skin Barrier Dysfunction and Atopic Dermatitis
This study reports the distinct effects of IL‐4, IL‐13, and IL‐22 on bio‐stabilized human skin with intact barriers and immune cells. IL‐4, IL‐13, and IL‐22 upregulate inflammatory mediators, disrupt skin barrier integrity, and reciprocally modulate IL‐4Rα and IL‐22Rα1 receptors.

DNA Replication to Aid Somatic Hypermutation [PDF]
Immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy and light chain loci undergo V, (D) and J gene recombination in bone marrow, giving rise to the diverse pre-immune repertoire of V(D)J segments of B cell receptors (BCR). After encountering antigen, naive B cells divide and differentiate in germinal centers of secondary lymphoid organs.

IgH repertoire sequencing of a large atopic dermatitis cohort reveal reduced IgE somatic hypermutation and increased IgE diversity associated with food allergen sensitization. Presence of a dog during the first year of life is associated with increased IgE somatic hypermutation, possibly countering the effect of food sensitization.

Abstract Cryoglobulinemia (CG) is defined by the presence of serum immunoglobulins that precipitate below 37°C and redissolve upon rewarming. It is classified into three types based on immunoglobulin composition. Type I, a rare form, involves monoclonal IgM or IgG and is linked to lymphoproliferative disorders.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients with differential somatic hypermutation status of the immunoglobulin heavy variable genes, namely mutated or unmutated, display fundamental clinico-biological differences.

Significance Statement Contrary to expectation, NUPTs do not necessarily have a deleterious or ultimately neutral impact, nor are they necessarily purged from the genome. Instead, they can proliferate and eventually become fixed, generating new and novel genes, gene regions and regulatory elements, thereby significantly contributing to plant nuclear ...

The induction of somatic hypermutation (SHM) in various cell lines by activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) has been used in protein-directed selection, especially in antibody affinity maturation.

Sex differences in the clinical presentation of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma
Abstract Introduction Standardized incidence rates of multiple myeloma (MM) are higher among males than females, suggesting that male sex is an important risk factor for MM, which may affect disease etiology, pathogenesis, and clinical presentation. Methods The association of sex with the prevalence of clinical features and chromosomal abnormalities ...

Analyses of somatic hypermutation (SHM) patterns in B cell immunoglobulin (Ig) sequences contribute to our basic understanding of adaptive immunity, and have broad applications not only for understanding the immune response to pathogens, but also to ...

Enhancer‐dependent gene regulation in space, time, and malignancies
Abstract Control of cell‐type‐specific gene activation requires the coordinated activity of distal regulatory elements, including enhancers, whose inputs must be temporally integrated. Dysregulation of this regulatory capacity, such as aberrant usage of enhancers, can result in malignant transformation of cells.
