Direct evidence for thymic function in adult humans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The understanding of human thymic function and evaluation of its contribution to T cell homeostasis are matters of great importance. Here we report the development of a novel assay to quantitate the frequency and diversity of recent thymic emigrants ...

Impact of G‐CSF on Donor TCR Clonal Diversity and T Cell Function During Donor HSC Mobilisation

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that G‐CSF mobilisation caused a reduction in TCR clonal diversity and down‐regulation of T‐cell function in donors. This may be one of the reasons for the low incidence of GVHD mediated by G‐CSF after allo‐HSCT. Source: Created in BioRender. Li https://BioRender.com/otownki.

Tissue-specific shaping of the TCR repertoire and antigen specificity of iNKT cells

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Tissue homeostasis is critically dependent on the function of tissue-resident lymphocytes, including lipid-reactive invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells.

TCR Convergence in Individuals Treated With Immune Checkpoint Inhibition for Cancer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Tumor antigen-driven selection may expand T cells having T cell receptors (TCRs) of shared antigen specificity but different amino acid or nucleotide sequence in a process known as TCR convergence. Substitution sequencing errors introduced by TCRβ (TCRB)

How T-cells use large deviations to recognize foreign antigens

open access: yes, 2008
A stochastic model for the activation of T-cells is analysed. T-cells are part of the immune system and recognize foreign antigens against a background of the body's own molecules.

Post‐Transplant Bendamustine as a Platform for Immune Modulation After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐transplant cyclophosphamide (PT‐CY) remains the standard of care for graft‐versus‐host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis in haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), yet relapse, delayed immune reconstitution, infections, and organ toxicity represent persistent and clinically meaningful limitations.

The impact of accumulating immune adaptation in circulating strains of HIV‐1

open access: yesHIV Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Mutations in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV‐1) enable the virus to evade recognition and killing by human leucocyte antigen (HLA)‐restricted T cells. These viral adaptations are specific to the HLA type of individuals and are therefore evident as HLA allele‐HIV sequence associations at the population level. Most studies of

Thymus and Leishmania at the Crossroads: Autoimmunity and Cancer

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
Conceptual ‘Crossroads Model’ linking Leishmania, thymic infection and immune dysregulation: an integrative model is proposed in which Leishmania infection disrupts thymic architecture and stromal–thymocyte interactions. These alterations converge to promote defective tolerance, increased autoimmune risk and a microenvironment permissive to malignant ...
