Journal ArticleDOI

The PD-1 pathway in tolerance and autoimmunity

TL;DR: This review highlights how PD‐1 and its ligands defend against potentially pathogenic self‐reactive effector T cells by simultaneously harnessing two mechanisms of peripheral tolerance: (i) the promotion of Treg development and function and (ii) the direct inhibition of potentially pathogen self-reactive T cells that have escaped into the periphery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcellular Diapedesis Is Initiated by Invasive Podosomes

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that lymphocytes usedpodosomes and extended "invasive podosomes" to palpate the surface of, and ultimately form transcellular pores through, the endothelium, providing insights into basic mechanisms for leukocyte trafficking and the functions of podosome.
Journal ArticleDOI

The receptor PD-1 controls follicular regulatory T cells in the lymph nodes and blood

TL;DR: These findings demonstrate mechanisms by which the PD-1 pathway regulates antibody production and help reconcile inconsistencies surrounding the role of this pathway in humoral immunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Coinhibitory Receptor CTLA-4 Controls B Cell Responses by Modulating T Follicular Helper, T Follicular Regulatory, and T Regulatory Cells

TL;DR: It is found that non-Tfr Treg cells could suppress B cell responses through CTLA-4 and that Treg and/or Tfr cells might downregulate B7-2 on B cells outside germinal centers as a means of suppression.
