Autoantibodies and autoantigens associated with autoimmune hepatitis and viruses-induced autoimmune response: Significant tools in clinical practice and in the study of pathogenesis of autoimmune hepatic diseases
(2004)Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic necroinflammatory disease of the liver characterized by hypergamma-globulinemia, characteristic autoantibodies, association with HLA DR3 or DR4 and a favorable response to immunosuppressive ... -
Curcumin for the management of periodontitis and early ACPA-positive rheumatoid arthritis: Killing two birds with one stone
(2018)We propose curcumin as a preventive measure to avoid/manage periodontitis (PD), and as a natural immunosuppressant for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). PD, mainly caused by Porphyromonas gingivalis forming biofilm and leading ... -
Increased indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase in monocytes of patients on hemodialysis
(2016)Hemodialysis patients suffer from susceptibility to infections. Inflammation upregulates indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) in the antigen-presenting cells, which suppresses T-cell function. Plasma IDO activity or protein ... -
Infectious triggers of primary biliary cirrhosis: Do we know enough?
(2011)Primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is an immune mediated liver disease directed against the biliary epithelial cells of the small bile ducts. The disease is characterised by circulating antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA), as ... -
Microbiome in multiple sclerosis; where are we, what we know and do not know
(2020)An increase of multiple sclerosis (MS) incidence has been reported during the last decade, and this may be connected to environmental factors. This review article aims to encapsulate the current advances targeting the study ... -
Multiple hit infection and autoimmunity: The dysbiotic microbiota-ACPA connection in rheumatoid arthritis
(2018)Purpose of review This review highlights the most recent data obtained in this field and provides clues toward the better understanding of the close interplay between microbiota and host, leading to autoimmune diseases. ... -
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells: Major figures that shape the immunosuppressive and angiogenic network in cancer
(2019)Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) constitute a vast population of immature myeloid cells implicated in various conditions. Most notably, their role in cancer is of great complexity. They exert immunosuppressive ... -
Platelets in Systemic Sclerosis: the Missing Link Connecting Vasculopathy, Autoimmunity, and Fibrosis?
(2019)Purpose of Review: Platelets are no longer recognized solely as cell fragments regulating hemostasis. They have pleiotropic functions and they are linked directly or indirectly with the three cornerstones of systemic ... -
The role of platelets in autoimmunity, vasculopathy, and fibrosis: Implications for systemic sclerosis
(2017)Introduction Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease characterized by vasculopathy, autoimmunity, and widespread dermal and visceral fibrosis. This article summarizes the current knowledge about the potential ... -

Targeted and global pharmacometabolomics in everolimus-based immunosuppression: association of co-medication and lysophosphatidylcholines with dose requirement
(2018)Introduction: The immunosuppressive therapy with everolimus (ERL) after heart transplantation is characterized by a narrow therapeutic window and a substantial variability in dose requirement. Factors explaining this ... -
Transcriptome Analysis Identifies Immune Markers Related to Visceral Leishmaniasis Establishment in the Experimental Model of BALB/c Mice
(2019)Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) caused by Leishmania donovani and L. infantum is a potentially fatal disease. To date there are no registered vaccines for disease prevention despite the fact that several vaccines are in ... -
