Dysregulation of T Follicular Helper Cells in Lupus [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2019
Abstract Although multiple and overlapping mechanisms are ultimately responsible for the immunopathology observed in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, autoreactive Abs secreted by autoreactive plasma cells (PCs) are considered to play a critical role in disease progression and immunopathology.

Marginal zone B cells: virtues of innate-like antibody-producing lymphocytes [PDF]

, 2013
Protective responses to microorganisms involve the nonspecific but rapid defence mechanisms of the innate immune system, followed by the specific but slow defence mechanisms of the adaptive immune system. Located as sentinels at the interface between the

Advancing Human Skin Equivalents: The Crucial Role of Neurovascular Integration

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses the importance of integrating vascular and peripheral nerve systems into human skin equivalents (HSEs) to better recapitulate native skin physiology. Recent advances in vascularized, innervated, and neurovascularized HSEs are highlighted, together with emerging bioengineering strategies, current challenges, and future ...

Follicular Helper T Cells in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
CD4+ follicular helper T (Tfh) cells constitute a subset of effector T cells that participate in the generation of high-affinity humoral responses. They express the chemokine receptor CXCR5 and produce the cytokine IL-21, both of which are required for ...

Extrusion‐Based Bioprinting of Living Bioinks for Tissue and Organ Engineering

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Extrusion‐based bioprinting is presented as the most versatile route for fabricating living, heterogeneous tissues. Its ability to combine diverse bioinks, support matrices, and advanced printhead geometries transforms familiar constraints into powerful biofabrication opportunities.

Th1-like Plasmodium-Specific Memory CD4+ T Cells Support Humoral Immunity

Cell Reports, 2017
Summary: Effector T cells exhibiting features of either T helper 1 (Th1) or T follicular helper (Tfh) populations are essential to control experimental Plasmodium infection and are believed to be critical for resistance to clinical malaria.

CD9+ B Cells Induce T Follicular Helper Cell Apoptosis to Regulate Germinal Center Regression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A unique subset of CD9+ B cells regulates germinal center B (GC‐B) cell regression by inducing T follicular helper (Tfh) cell apoptosis through multiple signaling pathways, such as ALCAM‐CD6. FOXP1 plays a key role in GC‐B cell differentiation. These findings clarify mechanisms of GC degeneration and termination and offer potential targets for adenoid ...

Elevated Proportions of Circulating CXCR5+ Follicular Helper T Cells Reflect the Presence of Airway Obstruction in Asthma

Journal of Immunology Research
Rationale. The progressive decline in lung function observed in asthma is attributed to persistent type 2 airway inflammation and associated airway remodeling. While various immune cells are involved in localized type 2 airway inflammation, whether these

IL-21 and T follicular helper cells [PDF]

International Immunology, 2009
Upon encounter with antigen, CD4(+) T cells differentiate into effector T(h) subsets with distinctive functions that are related to their unique cytokine profiles and anatomical locations. One of the most important T(h) functions is to provide signals to developing B cells that induce specific and appropriate antibody responses. The major CD4(+) T cell

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,
