Activated leucocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM/CD166) regulates T cell responses in a murine model of food allergy
In this study, serum levels of ALCAM were elevated in food allergy‐induced WT mice and children with food allergy. Moreover, immune responses and T cell activation were attenuated in OVA‐challenged ALCAM–/– mice. These results indicate that ALCAM regulates food allergy by affecting T cell activation. The number of CD3+CD4+ T cells was enhanced throughout the immune tissues, especially in the small intestine, of OVA‐challenged WT mice when compared to the numbers of T cells in control WT mice. However, the number of CD3+CD4+ T cells was lower in OVA‐challenged ALCAM‐/‐ mice than in OVA‐challenged WT mice....

Diminished CXCR5 expression in peripheral blood of patients with Sj ögren's syndrome may relate to both genotype and salivary gland homing
In conclusion, we link a genetic susceptibility allele for SS to a functional phenotype in terms of decreased CXCR5 expression. The decrease of CXCR5+ cells in circulation was also related to homing of B and T cells to the autoimmune target organ. Therapeutic drugs targeting the CXCR5/CXCL13 axis may be useful in SS.

Immunoassay methods used in clinical studies for the detection of anti ‐drug antibodies to adalimumab and infliximab
Conclusion: Consistent with previous recommendations to improve interpretation of immunogenicity data for biologics, greater consistency in reporting of assay methods and clinical consequences of ADA formation may prove useful. Additional standardization in immunogenicity testing and reporting, application of modern, robust assays that satisfy current regulatory expectations, and implementation of international standards for marketed products may help improve our understanding of the impact of immunogenicity to biologics.
