Journal ArticleDOI

PD-1+CD8+ T cells are clonally expanding effectors in human chronic inflammation

TL;DR: It is shown that local chronic inflammation drives the induction and expansion of CD8+ T cells endowed with potential detrimental properties, which lays the basis for investigation of PD-1–expressing CD8- T cell targeting strategies in human chronic inflammatory diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence-based diagnosis and treatment of macrophage activation syndrome in systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis

TL;DR: MAS in sJIA seems to be diagnosed best by the recently proposed PRINTO criteria, although prospective validation is needed, and no validated diagnostic criteria for MAS in s JIA is confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptional and epigenetic profiling of nutrient-deprived cells to identify novel regulators of autophagy.

TL;DR: Analysis of genome-wide transcriptomic and epigenomic profiling after nutrient deprivation in human autophagy-proficient and autophagic-deficient cells stresses the relevance of transcriptional and epigenetic regulation of autophile regulation and can be used as a resource to identify (novel) factors involved in Autophagy regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-Sustained Resistance to Suppression of CD8+ Teff Cells at the Site of Autoimmune Inflammation Can Be Reversed by Tumor Necrosis Factor and Interferon-γ Blockade.

TL;DR: Investigation of intrinsic resistance of CD8+ Teff cells to suppression is investigated to determine how this can be targeted therapeutically and whether this resistant phenotype is self‐sustained.
