Abstract

CTLA4-Ig (Belatacept) is a new recombinant molecule that interferes with the signal of T lymphocyte activation and prevents acute rejection after renal transplantation. HLA-G acts as a naturally tolerogenic molecule in humans. In this study, we analyzed whether HLA-G contributes to CTLA4-Ig-mediated graft acceptance. Our results demonstrate that patients treated with CTLA4-Ig displayed significantly higher soluble HLA-G (sHLA-G) plasma concentrations (72 +/- 14 ng/ml) than patients treated with calcineurin inhibitors (5 +/- 1 ng/ml) or healthy donors (5 +/- 5 ng/ml). Notably, sHLA-G purified from plasma of CTLA4-Ig-treated patients was biologically active as it inhibited allogeneic T cell proliferation in vitro. Dendritic cells (DC) were identified as one of the cellular sources of sHLA-G in CTLA4-Ig-treated patients. Supporting this observation, we showed that DC generated in vitro in presence of CTLA4-Ig released sHLA-G in response to allostimulation. These CTLA4-Ig-treated DC acted as tolerogenic APC through sHLA-G secretion as they suppressed T cell alloproliferation, which could be restored by using a neutralizing anti-HLA-G Ab. These data define a novel pathway by which CTLA4-Ig immunomodulates allogenic response through ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.
