Keystone Epitope Theory: An Ecological Perspective on RNA Viruses, Tumor Immunoediting, and Vaccine Design [0.03%]
中心表位理论:RNA病毒、肿瘤免疫编辑和疫苗设计的生态学视角

We propose that persistent, human-adapted DNA organisms shape postnatal immunity by focusing responses on functionally constrained epitopes within tissue niches. Here, we examine rapidly evolving RNA viruses and tumors through that lens. We...
Keystone Epitope Theory: Implications for Hypersensitivity, Autoimmunity, and Transplantation [0.03%]

HLA class I alleles confer a striking risk for T cell-mediated drug hypersensitivity, yet positive predictive values are low-typically under 10% and as low as 0.12% for some drug-HLA pairs. We propose that persistent, human-adapted pathogen...
Mast Cells Control the Bacterial Burden and Grain Formation in Murine Experimental Actinomycetoma Induced by Nocardia brasiliensis [0.03%]

Distinct Antibody Fc-profiles in Lymph During Homeostasis and Chronic HIV Infection [0.03%]
慢性HIV感染和稳态期间淋巴组织中抗体的Fc特征不同
Ryan P McNamara,Audrey L Butler,Sepideh Dolatshahi et al.
Ryan P McNamara et al.
Background: Antibodies play a critical role in the control of pathogens and tumors through their ability to recognize non-self and then direct immune-mediated destruction. Antibodies are generated by plasma cells or plasm...
