Multiple Distinct Sets of Stereotyped Antigen Receptors Indicate a Role for Antigen in Promoting Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

TL;DR: Five sets of patients with strikingly similar B cell antigen receptors arising from the use of common H and L chain V region gene segments are described, implying a much more striking degree of structural restriction of the entire BCR and a much higher frequency of receptor sharing among patients than appreciated previously.
Journal ArticleDOI

High Mobility Group Box Protein 1: An Endogenous Signal for Dendritic Cell Maturation and Th1 Polarization

TL;DR: It is shown that HMGB1, via its B box domain, induced phenotypic maturation of DCs, as evidenced by increased CD83, CD54, CD80, CD40, CD58, and MHC class II expression and decreased CD206 expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein: Friend and foe

TL;DR: The immuno-regulatory role of HMGB1 and its contribution to infectious and inflammatory disorders are focused on.
Journal ArticleDOI

ISO-1 Binding to the Tautomerase Active Site of MIF Inhibits Its Pro-inflammatory Activity and Increases Survival in Severe Sepsis

TL;DR: The results identify ISO-1 as the first small molecule inhibitor of MIF proinflammatory activities with therapeutic implications and indicate the potential of the MIF active site as a novel target for therapeutic interventions in human sepsis.
