CD32 (Fc γRIIB) expression is low on CD21 < sup > low < /sup > B cells from systemic sclerosis patients with digital ulcers, interstitial lung disease, and anti-topoisomerase I autoantibodies
Clin Immunol. 2024 Mar 15:110195. doi: 10.1016/j.clim.2024.110195. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCD21low B cells have recently been found increased in SSc-associated digital ulcers (DUs) or interstitial lung disease (ILD). To further characterize CD21low B cells which encompass autoreactive cells, we analyzed their expression of the inhibitory CD32 receptor in SSc. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 27 patients with SSc and 15 age-and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs) were analyzed with multicolor flow cytometry. CD21low B cells were significantly increased in patients with DUs (51.3%) compared to HCs (28.1%) and in ...

A novel therapy for intractable chronic cough
Two cases of intractable chronic cough improved significantly with humidified high flow therapy (HHFT). The mechanisms by which HHFT improve intractable cough may include reducing airway dryness, inhibition of neutrophil inflammation and mucus obstruction, and splinting of the airways. HHFT significantly improved cough and health-related quality of life in two patients with interstitial lung disease. Further research is warranted to explore the role of domiciliary HHFT. AbstractTwo cases of intractable chronic cough improved significantly with humidified high flow therapy (HHFT). A 59-year-old woman with Primary Sjogren's ...
