Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPreviously, we established that as a function of its mode of interaction with its ligand or cellular conditions such as membrane lipids, preexisting signaling intermediates activation status, a transmembrane receptor, as represented here with CD40, can induce counteractive cellular responses. Using CD40-binding peptides, recombinant mutated CD40-ligands, and an agonistic antibody, we have established the functional duality of CD40. CD40 builds up two constitutionally different signalosomes on lipid raft and non-...

Previous studies identified impaired T-cell sensitivity to Interleukin (IL)-7 accompanied by lower IL-7 receptor α-chain (IL-7Rα) expression in patients with acute tuberculosis. In the present study, we characterized affected T-cell subsets and determined the influence of tuberculosis disease severity and treatment response.

Study of association between antibodies to non-HLA kidney self-antigens and progression to chronic immune injury after kidney transplantation
CONCLUSIONS: Humoral immune responses to either KSAg alone or in combination with donor-specific anti-HLA antibodies are not associated with progression to CII at 1 and 2 years after kidney transplantation.PMID:37507262 | DOI:10.1016/j.humimm.2023.07.006 (Source: Human Immunology)
