The cause behind the autoimmunity outbreak in pSS is still elusive; however, it seems related to an aberrant reaction to exogenous triggers such as viruses, combined with individual genetic pre-disposition. For a long time, autoantibodies were considered as the hallmarks of this disease; however, more recently the complex interplay between innate and adaptive immunity as well as the consequent inflammatory process have emerged as the main mechanisms of pSS pathogenesis. The present review will focus on innate cells and on the principal mechanisms of inflammation connected. In the first part, an overview of innate cells involved in pSS pathogenesis is provided, stressing in particular the role of Innate Lymphoid Cells (ILCs). Subsequently we have highlighted the main inflammatory pathways, including intra- and extra-cellular players.

Abstract In this thesis I have explored different components of the pathogenesis of several related EBV associated cancers. In the first part of the thesis I focus on the microenvironment of two of these cancers, nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Our group has developed a therapeutic vaccine against EBV which has already been shown to be safe in patients with NPC. Therefore, in the first results chapter (chapter 3), I present a description of the phenotyping of expression of the immune microenvironment including immune checkpoint (ICP) genes and MHC class I and class II genes in NPC tissues. I showed for the first time in NPC tissue samples, two types of PD-L1 expressing tumours: diffuse and marginal.

Here, we obtain a detailed immune cell atlas of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) at single-cell resolution. Exhausted T and NK cells, regulatory T cells (Tregs), alternatively activated macrophages and tolerogenic dendritic cells are dominant in the TME. Transcriptional profiling coupled with T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing reveal lineage con- nections in T cell populations. CD8 T cells show continuous progression from pre-exhausted to exhausted T cells. While exhausted CD4, CD8 T and NK cells are major proliferative cell components in the TME, the crosstalk between macrophages and Tregs contributes to potential immunosuppression in the TME. Our results indicate several immunosuppressive mechanisms that may be simultaneously responsible for the failure of immuno-surveillance. Specific targeting of these immunosuppressive pathways may reactivate anti-tumor immune responses in ESCC. 1 Department of Laboratory Medicine, Xin Hua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China. 2 Institute of Biliary Tract Diseases Research, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China. 3 Department of Thoracic Surgery, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.

Running Title: Fatty acyl-carnitines enhance insulin secretion Abstract word count: 163 Main text Word count: 3960 Number of tables: 0 Number of figures: 5 Diabetes Publish Ahead of Print, published online June 26, 2014 Diabetes Page 2 of 288 2 ABSTRACT We previously demonstrated that micro-RNAs 132 and 212 are differentially upregulated in response to obesity in two mouse strains that differ in their susceptibility to obesity-induced diabetes. Here we show the overexpression of micro-RNAs 132 and 212 enhances insulin secretion (IS) in response to glucose and other secretagogues including non-fuel stimuli. We determined that carnitine acyl-carnitine translocase (CACT, Slc25a20) is a direct target of these miRNAs.

  • RT² Profiler PCR Array (384-Well Format) Human Inflammatory Response & Autoimmunity
    RT² Profiler PCR Array (384-Well Format) Human Inflammatory Response & Autoimmunity Cat. no. 330231 PAHS-3803ZE For pathway expression analysis Format For use with the following real-time cyclers RT² Profiler PCR Array, Applied Biosystems® models 7900HT (384-well block), Format E ViiA™ 7 (384-well block); Bio-Rad CFX384™ RT² Profiler PCR Array, Roche® LightCycler® 480 (384-well block) Format G Description The Human Inflammatory Response & Autoimmunity RT² Profiler PCR Array profiles the expression of 370 key genes involved in immune response during autoimmunity and inflammation. It represents the expression of inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and their receptors. It also contains genes related to the production and metabolism of cytokines. Genes involved in cytokine-cytokine receptor interactions are as well as thoroughly researched panels of genes involved in the acute-phase, inflammatory, and humoral immune responses. Using real-time PCR, you can easily and reliably analyze the expression of a focused panel of genes related to autoimmunity and inflammation with this array. For further details, consult the RT² Profiler PCR Array Handbook. Sample & Assay Technologies Shipping and storage RT² Profiler PCR Arrays in formats E and G are shipped at ambient temperature, on dry ice, or blue ice packs depending on destination and accompanying products. For long term storage, keep plates at –20°C. Note: Ensure that you have the correct RT² Profiler PCR Array format for your real-time cycler (see table above). Note: Open the package and store
