The role of acquired host immunity in periodontal diseases
Abstract The aim of this narrative review is to relate the contribution of European researchers to the complex topic of the host immune system in periodontal disease, focusing on acquired immunity. Other chapters in this volume will address the genetics and autoantibody responses and other forms of immunity to periodontal disease.

TCRpred: incorporating T-cell receptor repertoire for clinical outcome prediction
T-cell receptor (TCR) plays critical roles in recognizing antigen peptides and mediating adaptive immune response against disease. High-throughput technologies have enabled the sequencing of TCR repertoire at the single nucleotide level, allowing ...

Inflammation and mechanical force‐induced bone remodeling
Abstract Periodontitis arises from imbalanced host–microbe interactions, leading to dysbiosis and destructive inflammation. The host's innate and adaptive immune responses produce pro‐inflammatory mediators that stimulate destructive events, which cause loss of alveolar bone and connective tissue attachment.

Evidence for clonal selection of gamma/delta T cells in response to a human pathogen. [PDF]
T cells bearing gamma/delta antigen receptors comprise a resident population of intraepithelial lymphocytes in organs such as skin, gut, and lungs, where they are strategically located to contribute to the initial defense against infection.

Leishmania Extracellular Vesicles as a Preventive Vaccine Platform Against Leishmaniasis
The potential of Leishmania‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) as a vaccine platform was investigated, emphasizing an affordable, GMP‐compliant production and purification method. Immunization with EV vaccines, either unadjuvanted or combined with α‐galactosylceramide (αGC), induced robust humoral and cellular immune responses, conferring protection ...

Cancer vaccines: uses of HLA transgenic mice compared to genetically modified mice [PDF]
Many tumor antigens have been identified that can be targeted by the immune system. Animal models that have been genetically modified to express human HLA molecules instead of their own MHC antigens have shown to be valuable in the discovery of peptides ...
