Molecular mechanism and function of CD40/CD40L engagement in the immune system.

TL;DR: The essential role CD40 plays in adaptive immunity is underscored and a wide spectrum of molecular and cellular processes is regulated by CD40 engagement including the initiation and progression of cellular and humoral adaptive immunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retinoic acid: A key player in immunity

TL;DR: An overview of the recent discoveries of the role that vitamin A and its metabolite, retinoic acid (RA), play in the regulation of immune cells and how RA impacts on leukocyte growth, differentiation, and homing is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immune checkpoint inhibitor PD-1 pathway is down-regulated in synovium at various stages of rheumatoid arthritis disease progression.

TL;DR: The expression of PD-1 was increased in early and established RA synovial tissue compared to normal and OA synovium, whereas that of its ligands, programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and PD-L2, was increased at all the stages of RA disease progression, suggesting that agonistic PD1 antibody-based therapeutics may show efficacy in RA treatment and interception.
