T cell plasticity in systemic lupus erythematosus revealed by large‐scale T cell receptor repertoire and transcriptome studies

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective We aimed to characterize CD4+ T cell plasticity in human SLE by leveraging TCR repertoire features as markers of prior lineage states, integrating TCR and transcriptomic profiling to delineate plasticity patterns and evaluate their association with clinical disease activity.

T cells, the next big target in axSpA?

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by complex immune dysregulation, with T cells playing a central role in its pathogenesis. In this review we synthesize current knowledge on diverse T cell subsets in axSpA, their pathogenic mechanisms, and emerging therapeutic strategies targeting these cells.

The T‐Cell Response Mechanism in Human Papillomavirus‐Associated Cervical Cancer and New Strategies for Immunotherapy

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a double‐stranded DNA virus that infects human skin and mucosal tissues exclusively. The German scientist Harald zur Hausen was awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the link between HPV infection and cervical cancer.

Reporters of TCR signaling identify arthritogenic T cells in murine and human autoimmune arthritis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
How pathogenic cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) T cells in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) develop remains poorly understood. We used Nur77-a marker of T cell antigen receptor (TCR) signaling-to identify antigen-activated CD4 T cells in the SKG mouse model ...

repgenHMM: a dynamic programming tool to infer the rules of immune receptor generation from sequence data

open access: yes, 2015
The diversity of the immune repertoire is initially generated by random rearrangements of the receptor gene during early T and B cell development. Rearrangement scenarios are composed of random events -- choices of gene templates, base pair deletions and

A Tripartite Model for EBV‐Driven Multiple Sclerosis: B Cell Survival, Altered Self‐Presentation, and HLA‐DR15‐Restricted T Cell Cross‐Reactivity

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This commentary integrates findings from three recent Cell reports to establish a unified mechanistic model of multiple sclerosis (MS) driven by the interplay between Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) and the HLA‐DR15 genotype. EBV promotes CNS autoimmunity through three distinct but intersecting mechanisms.

Analysis of the TCR Repertoire in HIV-Exposed but Uninfected Infants

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
AbstractMaternal human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection has been shown to leave profound and lasting impacts on the HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) infant, including increased mortality and morbidity, immunological changes, and developmental delays compared to their HIV-unexposed (HU) counterparts.

Polyfunctional Melan-A-specific tumor-reactive CD8+ T cells elicited by dacarbazine treatment before peptide-vaccination depends on AKT activation sustained by ICOS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The identification of activation pathways linked to anti-tumor T-cell polyfunctionality in long surviving patients is of great relevance in the new era of immunotherapy.

A new perspective on cancer treatment: the interaction and application prospect between ICIs and radiotherapy

open access: yesPrecision Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
The combination of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and radiotherapy synergistically enhances efficacy through an “antigen release‐immune activation” closed‐loop mechanism, significantly improving outcomes in solid tumors (e.g., lung cancer, melanoma).

EXPRESSION OF A FUNCTIONAL CHIMERIC lg-MHC CLASS II PROTEIN [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
composed of the a- and ß-chains of the MHC class I1 I-E molecule fused to antibody V regions derived from anti-human CD4 mAb MT310. Expression vectors were constructed containing the functional, rearranged gene segments coding for the V region domains of
