Frequencies and TCR Repertoires of Human 2,4,6-Trinitrobenzenesulfonic Acid-specific T Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Toxicology, 2022
Allergic contact dermatitis is a widespread T cell-mediated inflammatory skin disease, but in vitro monitoring of chemical-specific T cells remains challenging.

Limiting energy dissipation induces glassy kinetics in single cell high precision responses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Single cells often generate precise responses by involving dissipative out-of-thermodynamic equilibrium processes in signaling networks. The available free energy to fuel these processes could become limited depending on the metabolic state of an individual cell.

A new homeostatic model of the T cell system [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Systems, 19, 299-317, 2011, 2010
Our main tenet argues that the primary role of positive thymic selection and the resulting T cell population is the maintenance of a homeostatic equilibrium with self MHC-self peptide complexes. The homeostatic T cell repertoire can recognize infections non-specifically and this is an indirect (negative) recognition: the whole homeostatic T cell ...

Clonal kinetics and single-cell transcriptional profiling of CAR-T cells in patients undergoing CD19 CAR-T immunotherapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has produced remarkable anti-tumor responses in patients with B-cell malignancies. However, clonal kinetics and transcriptional programs that regulate the fate of CAR-T cells after infusion remain poorly ...

Unraveling Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid resistance and pH homeostasis mechanisms

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibits a remarkable resilience to acid stress. In this Review, we discuss some of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic pathways used by the tubercle bacilli to adapt and resist host‐mediated acid stress. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a successful pathogen that has developed a variety of strategies to survive and ...

Immune-related adverse events are clustered into distinct subtypes by T-cell profiling before and early after anti-PD-1 treatment

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2020
Although anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1) treatment has shown remarkable anti-tumor efficacy, immune-related adverse events (irAEs) develop with heterogeneous clinical manifestations.

T cell equation as a conceptual model of T cell responses for maximizing the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy [PDF]

open access: yesSOJ Immunol 5(1):1-5, 2017, 2015
Following antigen stimulation, the net outcomes of a T cell response are shaped by integrated signals from both positive co-stimulatory and negative regulatory molecules. Recently, the blockade of negative regulatory molecules (i.e. immune checkpoint signals) demonstrates therapeutic effects in treatment of human cancer, but only in a fraction of ...

Deterministic mechanical model of T-killer cell polarization reproduces the wandering of aim between simultaneously engaged targets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
T-killer cells of the immune system eliminate virus-infected and tumorous cells through direct cell-cell interactions. Reorientation of the killing apparatus inside the T cell to the T-cell interface with the target cell ensures specificity of the immune

Cell-by-cell deciphering of T cells in allergic inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2019
Technical advances in single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) render it possible to examine the transcriptomes of single cells in patients with allergic inflammation with high resolution in the context of their specific microenvironment, treatment, and disease status.

Refining the NaV1.7 pharmacophore of a class of venom‐derived peptide inhibitors via a combination of in silico screening and rational engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.
