Kyoto’s Glocal Identity: Establishing Balance between Identity Change and Persistence
Kyoto is a miniature of Japan; through centuries of experience and persistence, it has maintained the symbols of the country’s civil and cultural identity. The city has demonstrated a collection of Japan’s noble identity and characteristics through its material and spiritual heritage. Kyoto’s rich history and its position have gathered a collection of religion-based works, artistic innovations,...
متن کاملT follicular helper cells, T follicular regulatory cells and autoimmunity.
CD4(+)T follicular helper (Tfh) cells are recognized as a distinct T-cell subset, which provides help for germinal center (GC) formation, B-cell development and affinity maturation, and immunoglobulin class switching, as an indispensable part of adaptive immunity. Tfh cell differentiation depends on various factors including cell-surface molecule interactions, extracellular cytokines and multip...
متن کاملEstablishing Persistent Identity using the Handle System
In this paper, we propose that identity reference used over distributed communication should be defined independent from any attributes and/or the public keys associated with the underlying subject. This allows the identity reference to be persistent over changes made to the attributes and/or the public keys. We further suggest to separate the trust establishment over distributed communication ...
متن کاملLife of T Follicular Helper Cells
Antibodies are powerful defense tools against pathogens but may cause autoimmune diseases when erroneously directed toward self-antigens. Thus, antibody producing cells are carefully selected, refined, and expanded in a highly regulated microenvironment (germinal center) in the peripheral lymphoid organs. A subset of T cells termed T follicular helper cells (Tfh) play a central role in instruct...
متن کاملMicroRNAs, T follicular helper cells and inflammaging
Advanced age is associated with a declining ability to mount satisfactory immune responses (i.e. immunosenescence) resulting in increased infection susceptibility and diminished vaccine-elicited immune responses. Paradoxically, aged individuals also have a reduced ability to resolve certain types of inflammation (i.e. inflammaging) leading to chronic, low-grade inflammatory responses and the de...
