Lymphotactin: how a protein can adopt two folds

open access: yes, 2009
Metamorphic proteins like Lymphotactin are a notable exception of the empirical principle that structured natural proteins possess a unique three dimensional structure.

PIK3CA Mutations Downregulate PPT1 to Promote Adipogenesis by Suppressing P300 Depalmitoylation and Phase Separation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
This study demonstrates that somatic PIK3CA mutations suppress PPT1 expression via activation of the PI3K–AKT–c‐JUN axis. This reduction in PPT1 weakens its interaction with P300, thereby increasing palmitoylation at C1176 of P300 and protecting P300 from lysosomal degradation.

Cytomegalovirus Expresses the Chemokine Homologue vXCL1 Capable of Attracting XCR1 + CD4 Dendritic Cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2014
ABSTRACT Cytomegaloviruses (CMV) have developed various strategies to escape the immune system of the host. One strategy involves the expression of virus-encoded chemokines to modulate the host chemokine network. We have identified in the English isolate of rat CMV (murid herpesvirus 8 [MuHV8]) an open reading frame encoding a ...

To respond or not to respond - a personal perspective of intestinal tolerance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
For many years, the intestine was one of the poor relations of the immunology world, being a realm inhabited mostly by specialists and those interested in unusual phenomena.

Single Cell Analysis Reveals Dynamic Changes of Distinct Cell Populations in Human Nickel Allergy

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1138-1148, April 2026.
We investigated cell types mediating the early and late inflammatory responses in human Ni2+‐allergy by scRNA‐Seq. Early responsiveness was mainly mediated by TLR4+TAGLN− endothelial cells indirectly activating TLR4−KRT16+ keratinocytes, and CCR7+DCN+ DCs. Late responsiveness was crucially driven by infiltration of KLF2+ central memory T cells and TLR4+

Systematic pan-cancer analysis reveals XCR1 as a Prognostic and Immunological Biomarker

open access: yes, 2023
Abstract Background Chemokines and their receptors play an important role in immune monitoring and immune defense during the tumor growth and metastasis. However, their prognostic roles in pan-cancer were not elucidated. In this work, we screened all chemokine receptors in pan-cancer and discovered XCR1 as a reliable immunological and ...

Treatment with mRNA coding for the necroptosis mediator MLKL induces antitumor immunity directed against neo-epitopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cancer immunotherapy can induce durable antitumor responses. However, many patients poorly respond to such therapies. Here we describe a generic antitumor therapy that is based on the intratumor delivery of mRNA that codes for the necroptosis executioner

Granzyme A Stimulates pDCs to Promote Adaptive Immunity via Induction of Type I IFN

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Granzyme A (GzmA), together with perforin, are well-known for their cytotoxic activity against tumor or virus-infected cells. In addition to this cytotoxic function, GzmA stimulates several immune cell types and induces inflammation in the absence of ...

Large-Scale Human Dendritic Cell Differentiation Revealing Notch-Dependent Lineage Bifurcation and Heterogeneity

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: The ability to generate large numbers of distinct types of human dendritic cells (DCs) in vitro is critical for accelerating our understanding of DC biology and harnessing them clinically. We developed a DC differentiation method from human CD34+

Chemokine Function in Periodontal Disease and Oral Cavity Cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The chemotactic cytokines, or chemokines, comprise a superfamily of polypeptides with a wide range of activities that include recruitment of immune cells to sites of infection and inflammation, as well as stimulation of cell proliferation.
