Antigen presentation in the thymus for positive selection and central tolerance induction

TL;DR: New discoveries pertaining to cortex-specific pathways of antigen processing, the heterogeneity of thymic dendritic cells and the intercellular transfer of self antigens have uncovered surprising and unique aspects of antigen presentation in the Thymic microenvironment are discussed.

Seventy-five genetic loci influencing the human red blood cell

Pim van der Harst, +194 more
- 20 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: A genome-wide association study of haemoglobin concentration and related parameters in up to 135,367 individuals identifies 75 independent genetic loci associated with one or more red blood cell phenotypes at P < 10−8, which together explain 4–9% of the phenotypic variance per trait.
