Journal ArticleDOI

Nancy Agmon-Levin,Nancy Agmon-Levin,Jan Damoiseaux,Cornelis Kallenberg,Ulrich Sack,Torsten Witte,Manfred Herold,Manfred Herold,Xavier Bossuyt,L. Musset,Ricard Cervera,Aresio Plaza-Lopez,Carlos Tadeu dos Santos Dias,Maria José Rego Sousa,Antonella Radice,Catharina Eriksson,Olof Hultgren,Markku Viander,Munther A.

Konstantinov,Robert Lahita,Merlin R. Wilson,Olli Vainio,Nicole Fabien,Renato Alberto Sinico,Pier Luigi Meroni,Yehuda Shoenfeld,Yehuda Shoenfeld +36 more
TL;DR: Recommendations for the assessment and interpretation of ANA and associated antibodies were formulated and the roles of IIFA as a reference method, and the importance of defining nuclear and cytoplasmic staining were emphasised, while the need to incorporate alternative automated methods was acknowledged.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peptide motifs of the single dominantly expressed class I molecule explain the striking MHC-determined response to Rous sarcoma virus in chickens
Hans-Joachim Wallny,D Avila,Lawrence G. Hunt,Timothy J. Powell,Patricia Riegert,Jan Salomonsen,Karsten Skjødt,Olli Vainio,Francis Vilbois,Michael V. Wiles,James C. Kaufman +10 more
TL;DR: The peptide motifs can explain the striking MHC-determined resistance and susceptibility to Rous sarcoma virus and are consistent with the concept of a “minimal essential MHC” for chickens, in strong contrast to typical mammals.
Journal ArticleDOI
CTX, a Xenopus thymocyte receptor, defines a molecular family conserved throughout vertebrates
Isabelle Chrétien,Anne Marcuz,Michèle Courtet,Kaisa Katevuo,Olli Vainio,Joan K. Heath,Sara J. White,Louis Du Pasquier +7 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that CTX defines a novel subset of the Igsf, conserved throughout vertebrates and extending beyond the immune system, and strong homologies within vertebrate sequences suggest that the V and C2 CTX domains are scions of a very ancient lineage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decline in temperature and humidity increases the occurrence of influenza in cold climate
Kari Jaakkola,Kari Jaakkola,Annika Saukkoriipi,Jari Jokelainen,Jari Jokelainen,Raija Juvonen,Jaana Kauppila,Olli Vainio,Thedi Ziegler,Esa Rönkkö,Jouni J. K. Jaakkola,Tiina M. Ikäheimo +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a decrease rather than low temperature and humidity per se during the preceding three days increase the risk of influenza episodes in a cold climate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ontogeny of the Immune System: γ/δ and α/β T Cells Migrate from Thymus to the Periphery in Alternating Waves
Dominique Dunon,D. Courtois,Olli Vainio,A. Six,Chen-lo H. Chen,Max D. Cooper,Jean-Pierre Dangy,Beat A. Imhof +7 more
TL;DR: The data indicate a complex pattern of repertoire diversification by the progeny of founder thymocyte progenitors, which rearranged all three TCR Vγ gene families, but displayed a variable repertoire.
