Journal ArticleDOI

Tolerogenic dendritic cells.

TL;DR: It is suggested that several clinical situations, including autoimmunity and certain infectious diseases, can be influenced by the antigen-specific tolerogenic role of DCs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Autoantibodies against type I IFNs in patients with life-threatening COVID-19.

Paul Bastard, +140 more
- 23 Oct 2020 - 
TL;DR: A means by which individuals at highest risk of life-threatening COVID-19 can be identified is identified, and the hypothesis that neutralizing auto-Abs against type I IFNs may underlie critical CO VID-19 is tested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dendritic Cells Induce Peripheral T Cell Unresponsiveness under Steady State Conditions in Vivo

TL;DR: An antigen delivery system targeting these specialized antigen presenting cells in vivo using a monoclonal antibody to a DC-restricted endocytic receptor is devised, which concludes that in the absence of additional stimuli DCs induce transient antigen-specific T cell activation followed by T cell deletion and unresponsiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predominant Autoantibody Production by Early Human B Cell Precursors

TL;DR: The prevalence of self-reactive antibody formation and its regulation in human B cells is determined and a majority (55 to 75%) of all antibodies expressed by early immature B cells displayedSelf-reactivity, including polyreactive and anti-nuclear specificities.
