Sex Hormones in Acquired Immunity and Autoimmune Disease.

TL;DR: The role of sex hormones particularly estrogen, in the adaptive immune response, in health, and autoimmune disease with an emphasis on systemic lupus erythematosus is focused on.

Autoimmunity and organ damage in systemic lupus erythematosus

TL;DR: Tsokos reviews how the genetic, epigenetic and microbial environments influence innate and adaptive immune cells to drive immunopathology and organ damage in systemic lupus erythematosus.

Th17 Cells and the IL-23/IL-17 Axis in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis and Immune-Mediated Inflammatory Diseases

TL;DR: A review of the current knowledge about the differentiation of Th17 cells and the role of the IL-17/IL-23 axis in the pathogenesis of IMIDs aims to review the association of these IMIDs with periodontitis and briefly discusses the therapeutic potential of agents that modulate the IL

Aberrant T Cell Signaling and Subsets in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

TL;DR: A better understanding of the molecular defects including signaling events and gene regulation underlying the dysfunctional T cells in SLE is necessary to pave the path for better management, therapy, and perhaps prevention of this complex disease.

Control of peripheral tolerance by regulatory T cell-intrinsic Notch signaling

TL;DR: It is found that lineage-specific deletion of components of the Notch pathway enhanced Treg cell–mediated suppression of type 1 helper T cell (TH1 cell) responses and protected against their TH1 skewing and apoptosis.

IL-2 Protects Lupus-Prone Mice from Multiple End-Organ Damage by Limiting CD4−CD8− IL-17–Producing T Cells

TL;DR: It is suggested that administration of IL-2 to lupus-prone mice protects against end-organ damage and suppresses inflammation by dually limiting IL-17–producing DN T cells and expanding Treg.

HDAC inhibitor reduces cytokine storm and facilitates induction of chimerism that reverses lupus in anti-CD3 conditioning regimen

TL;DR: Conditioning with anti-CD3 and SAHA allows induction of chimerism with lower doses of donor BM cells in old nonautoimmune and autoimmune lupus mice and indicates a radiation-free and GVHD preventative regimen with clinical application potential.
