Acute antibody-mediated rejection is characterized by histological abnormalities such as glomerulitis, capillaritis, or thrombosis associated with presence of C4d and specific anti-donor antibodies. Reports on the association ...

Background: The thymus is a central lymphoid organ, in which bone marrow-derived T cell precursors undergo a complex process of maturation. Developing thymocytes interact with thymic microenvironment in a defined spatial ...

Abstract Background The thymus is a central lymphoid organ, in which bone marrow-derived T cell precursors undergo a complex process of maturation. Developing thymocytes interact with thymic microenvironment in ...

Studies have confirmed the hypothesis that stress alters immune function and can influence the development of autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, cancer and AIDS. In experimental models, stress alters the number of ...

In experimental Trypanosoma cruzi infections, severe thymic atrophy leads to release of activated CD4+CD8+ double-positive (DP) T cells to the periphery. In humans, activated DP T cells are found in the blood in association ...

Expression of transcripts for the homotypic adhesion protein epithelial V-like antigen 1 (EVA1), also known as myelin protein zero like-2 (Mpzl2), is known to be present in thymic stromal cells. However, protein expression ...

Background: The thymus is necessary for the differentiation of T cells, a process that is regulated by the type of antigens found in thymocytes, the environment of surrounding cells and the thymus architecture. There is ...

El lupus eritematoso sistémico (LES) es una enfermedad autoinmune caracterizada por la producción de autoanticuerpos que forman complejos inmunes, los cuales son los responsables de la inflamación y daño tisular. En el ...
