Synthetically glycosylated antigens induce antigen-specific tolerance and prevent the onset of diabetes

Publications associées (57)

Gut -draining mesenteric and celiac lymph nodes (mLNs and celLNs) critically contribute to peripheral tolerance toward food and microbial antigens by supporting the de novo induction of regulatory T cells (Tregs). These tolerogenic properties of mLNs and c ...

Methanobrevibacter smithii ( m. smithii) for use as a biomarker and in the diagnosis and the treatment of disorders associated with aberrant microbiota and/or archaea-deficiency

Duncan-Bruce Sutherland

The present invention generally relates to the field of intestinal health, disorders associated with aberrant microbiota and/or archaea-deficiency, and early-life immune system development. The present invention more specifically relates to M. smithii and ...

Autoantibodies against type I IFNs in humans with alternative NF-κB pathway deficiency

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball, Alessandro Borghesi, Yu Zhang, Peng Zhang, Qian Zhang

Patients with autoimmune polyendocrinopathy syndrome type 1 (APS-1) caused by autosomal recessive AIRE deficiency produce autoantibodies that neutralize type I interferons (IFNs) 1,2 , conferring a predisposition to life-threatening COVID-19 pneumonia 3 . ...

Immunotherapy has been used in oncology in order to awaken the immune system of the patient against cancer. Within this promising field is emerging the use of therapeutic cancer vaccines, using tumor specific antigens to stimulate dendritic cells (DCs) ex ...

Efficient immune responses require Ca2+ fluxes across ORAI1 channels during engagement of T cell receptors (TCR) at the immune synapse (IS) between T cells and antigen presenting cells. Here, we show that ZDHHC20-mediated S-acylation of the ORAI1 channel a ...

Systematic screening of viral and human genetic variation identifies antiretroviral resistance and immune escape link

Jacques Fellay, Christian Axel Wandall Thorball

Background: Considering the remaining threat of drug-resistantmutations (DRMs) to antiretroviral treatment (ART) efficacy, we investigated how the selective pressure of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes drives certain DRMs' e ...

Biotechnologies to tackle the challenge of neoantigen identification

Philippe Renaud, George Coukos, Margaux Catherine Marie Duchamp, Alexandre Harari, Marion Arnaud

Among immune correlates of clinical responses, tumor-specificneoantigens took the spotlight as relevant targets for cancerimmunotherapy. The implementation of pipelines forpersonalized cancer therapy remains challenging due to theprivacy, that is patient-s ...

New roles of the lymphatic endothelium in modulating adaptive immunity: implications for immune tolerance and cancer immunotherapy

Lambert Charles François Potin

Lymphatic vessels have traditionally been considered as passive conduits for interstitial fluid drainage and for immune cell trafficking to lymph nodes. In the last two decades, many studies have challenged this classical dogma: lymphatic endothelial cells ...

Introducing tolerance to foreign and partly foreign proteins by erythrocyte binding and artificial glycosylations

Kym Lorenz Brünggel

Over the last few years, protein drugs have steadily gained importance in the clinic. Compared to small molecule drugs, protein drugs are taken up by antigen presenting cells, which degrade the proteins into peptides that are then presented on major histoc ...

Investigating the Biological Mechanisms underlying the Initiation of Autoimmunity against Beta Cell Antigens in Type 1 Diabetes

Chiara Cianciaruso

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by circulating autoantibodies, lymphocytic infiltration of pancreatic islets of Langerhans, and cell-specific destruction of beta cells, leading to insulin deficiency and symptomatic hyperglycemi ...
