CD56+ T cells are generally recognized as a distinct population of T cells and are
categorized as NKT-like cells. Although our understanding of NKT-like cells is far from …

NKT cells are innate-like T cells, recruited to the skin during viral infection, yet their
contributions to long-term immune memory to viruses are unclear. We identified granzyme K …

Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is an autoimmune disorder primarily affecting the body's exocrine
glands, particularly the salivary and lacrimal glands, which lead to severe symptoms of dry …

Standard oral rapamycin (that is, Rapamune) administration is plagued by poor
bioavailability and broad biodistribution. Thus, this pleotropic mammalian target of …

Individuals with Down syndrome show cellular and clinical features of dysregulated aging of
the immune system, including a shift from naïve to memory T cells and increased incidence …

Interleukin-15 (IL-15) is a cytokine that has been shown to expand CD8 T cell and natural
killer (NK) cell populations, and therefore has potential for potentiating adoptive immune cell …

Introduction We aimed to comprehensively investigate the causal relationship between 731
immune cell traits and autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) and to identify and quantify the role of …

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disease characterized by chronic and
progressive inflammation of the synovium. Focused ultrasound therapy is an increasingly …

Commonly available clinical parameters fail to predict early acute cellular rejection (EAR,
occurring within 6 months after transplant), a major risk factor for graft loss after kidney …

Our previous work has demonstrated the high efficiency of CD8+ natural killer T (NKT)-like
cells in killing antigen-bearing dendritic cells. To evaluate their role in the tumor …
