Blimp-1 Expression as an Exhaustion Transcription Factor in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Background: PPreviously, it was shown that exhausted CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) co-express the two immune-inhibitory receptors, Tim-3 and PD-1. Present study investigated the expression of Blimp-1, a transcription factor involved in T cell exhaustion, in patients with CLL. Materials and Methods: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were collected from 25 untreate...
متن کاملMultiple Myeloma Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Inhibit CD8+ T Cell Function in a Process that May Implicate Fibroblast Activation Protein α
Background: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell proliferative disorder with limited immunotherapy treatment because of T cell dysfunction. Objective: To investigate the immunomodulatory function of bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (MM-BMSCs) on CD8+ T cells. Methods: Proliferation and cytotoxicity were detected by c...
متن کاملInvestigating the mRNA expression levels of Hippo pathway in adenoma polyps
Background Neoplastic adenomatous polyps generating from the epithelial cells are considered benign tumors. Adenomatous polyps are common in western countries and it can take seven to 10 or more years for an adenoma to evolve into cancer. The Hippo signaling pathway, also known as the Salvador-Warts-Hippo (SWH) pathway, is a signaling pathway that controls organ size in animals through the r...
متن کاملDIFFERENTIAL EXPRESSION OF SURFACE MARKERS CD45RB AND CD44 ON MURINE CD8+ CELLS
Considering the emerging importance of phenotypic markers as indicators of cell function and differentiation, we studied patterns ofCD44 and CD45RB expression in CD8+ murine T cells with prior exposure to antigen or staphylococcal enterotoxin B ( SEB ). Following in vivo priming with two purified protein derivatives (one from a virulent WHO strain and the other from an avirulent strain), T ...
متن کاملB and T Lymphocyte Attenuator is a Target of miR-155 during Naive CD4+ T Cell Activation
Background: MicroRNA-155 (miR-155) is upregulated during T cell activation, but the exact mechanisms by which it influences CD4+ T cell activation remain unclear. Objective: To examine whether the B and T lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA) is a target of miR-155 during naïve CD4+ T cell activation. Methods: Firefly luciferase reporter plasmids pEZX-MT01-wild-type-BTLA and pEZX-MT01-mutant-BTLA were ...
