First-principles calculations of iodine-related point defects in CsPbI3

Joachim Maier, Alessandro Senocrate

We present here first principles hybrid functional calculations of the atomic and electronic structure of several iodine-related point defects in CsPbI3, a material relevant for photovoltaic applications. We show that the presence of neutral interstitial I ...

Memory B Cells Activate Brain-Homing, Autoreactive CD4(+) T Cells in Multiple Sclerosis

Jian Wang, Christian Hammer

Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune disease that is caused by the interplay of genetic, particularly the HLA-DR15 haplotype, and environmental risk factors. How these etiologic factors contribute to generating an autoreactive CD4(+) T cell repertoire is no ...

Bioengineering strategies for inducing tolerance in autoimmune diabetes

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Steinunn Baekkeskov Hanahan, Edward Allen Phelps

Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease marked by the destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreatic islets. Strategies to delay onset or prevent the autoimmune recognition of beta cell antigens or T cell-mediated killing of beta cells have ...

Primary human and rat beta cells release the intracellular autoantigens GAD65, IA-2 and proinsulin in exosomes together with cytokine-induced enhancers of immunity

Michele De Palma, Davide Demurtas, Romain Hamelin, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Steinunn Baekkeskov Hanahan, Sachiko Hirosue, Chiara Cianciaruso, Miriella Carmela Pasquier, Edward Allen Phelps

The target autoantigens in several organ-specific autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes (T1D), are intracellular membrane proteins, whose initial encounter with the immune system is poorly understood. Here we propose a new model for how these prot ...

NCoR1 restrains thymic negative selection by repressing Bim expression to spare thymocytes undergoing positive selection

Johan Auwerx, Shuo Zhang, Na Zhang, Hui Xiao, Ye Zheng

Thymocytes must pass both positive and negative selections to become mature T cells. Negative selection purges thymocytes whose T-cell receptors (TCR) exhibit high affinity to self-peptide MHC complexes (self pMHC) to avoid autoimmune diseases, while posit ...
