Abstract:
CD40L is expressed in activated T cells, and it plays a major role in immune response and is a major therapeutic target for inflammation. High IgM syndrome type 1 (HIGM1) is a congenital functional defect in CD40L/CD40 signaling due to defective CD40L. CD40L is also stored in platelet granules and transported to the surface upon platelet activation. Platelet integrin αIIbβ3 is known to bind to fibrinogen and activation of αIIbβ3 is a key event that triggers platelet aggregation. Also, the KGD motif is critical for αIIbβ3 binding and the interaction stabilizes thrombus. Previous studies showed

Abstract:
Abstract Hyper-IgM Type 1 (HIGM1) is caused by mutations of CD40L, whose absence in CD4 T cells impairs signaling for B cell activation and Ig class-switching. Since unregulated CD40L expression leads to lymphoproliferations/lymphomas in the mouse model of the disease, gene correction must preserve the physiological regulation of the gene. Gene editing of either autologous T cells or hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) held promise for treating HIGM1. We developed a "one size fits all" editing strategy to insert a 5'-truncated corrective CD40L cDNA in the first intron of the native human gene, effe

Abstract:
Abstract Hyper-IgM syndrome is a rare immunodeficiency characterized by low or absent IgG, IgA, and IgE with normal or elevated levels of IgM. It can occur as an acquired or familial disorder with either X-linked or autosomal modes of inheritance. The X-linked form (HIGM1) is a result of mutations in the CD40 ligand (CD40L) gene, but the defect in non-X-linked forms of the disease (HIM) has not been determined. We show here that CD40L expression on activated T cells from non-X-linked patients can be detected by CD40Fc, 5c8 Mab, and anti-TRAP, whereas activated T cells from HIGM1 patients eithe

Abstract:
Abstract CD40L plays a major role in immune response and is a target for inflammatory disease therapy. Besides CD40, CD40L binds to several integrins but their role in signaling is unclear. We showed that integrins αvβ3 and α5β1 bind to the CD40L trimeric interface through classical ligand binding site of integrins (site 1). Several CD40L mutants from HIGM1 (hyper-IgM syndrome type 1) patients were clustered in trimeric interface and defective in integrin binding, and in NF-κB and B cell activation, but still bound CD40 and acted as antagonists of CD40L signaling.

The induction of immunoglobulin E (IgE) switching in B cells requires at least two signals. The first is given by either of the soluble lymphokines interleukin 4 (IL-4) or IL-13, whereas the second is contact dependent. It has been widely reported that a second signal can be provided by the CD40 ligand (CD40L) expressed on the surface of T cells, mast cells, and basophils. A defect in the CD40L has been shown recently to be responsible for the lack of IgE, IgA, and IgG, characteristic of the childhood X-linked immunodeficiency, hyper IgM syndrome (HIGM1).

Abstract:
A definite prediction from recent N-body/hydro simulations of the structure formation of the universe is the presence of a diffuse hot intergalactic medium (HIGM; e.g., Ostriker & Cen 1996). The filamentary structure of the today's universe, as seen in various galaxies surveys, is thought to be a result of the gravitational collapse of materials from a more-or-less uniform and isotropic early universe. During the collapse, shock-heating can naturally raise gas temperature to a range of 105 – 107 K. Feedbacks from stars may also be an important heating source and may chemically enrich the H

Abstract:
The maintenance of autoreactive B cells in a quiescent state is crucial for preventing autoimmunity. Here we identify a variant of human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) with a Gly396→Arg substitution (hIgG1-G396R), which positively correlates with systemic lupus erythematosus. In induced lupus models, murine homolog Gly390→Arg (G390R) knockin mice generate excessive numbers of plasma cells, leading to a burst of broad-spectrum autoantibodies. This enhanced production of antibodies is also observed in hapten-immunized G390R mice, as well as in influenza-vaccinated human G396R homozygous carriers. This

Abstract X-linked hyper-IgM (HIGM-1) syndrome is a rare disorder resulting from mutations in the CD40-ligand (CD40L) gene. This defect is associated with normal or elevated serum levels of IgM, and with low to undetectable levels of serum IgG, IgA, and IgE. We analyzed the somatic mutation status in Ig V genes from three unrelated HIGM-1 patients by reverse-transcription PCR and sequence analysis. Two patients (B.S. and P.S.) expressed unmutated VH6 genes. In contrast, one patient (A.T.) was found to express mutated VH6 genes. Whether the presence of somatic mutations in this patient was relat

Very high IgM levels represent the hallmark of hyper IgM (HIGM) syndromes, a group of primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) characterized by susceptibility to infections and malignancies. Other PIDs not fulfilling the diagnostic criteria for HIGM syndromes can also be characterized by high IgM levels and susceptibility to malignancies. The aim of this study is to characterize clinical phenotype, immune impairment, and pathogenic mechanism in six patients with very high IgM levels in whom classical HIGM syndromes were ruled out.

Isoforms of the Fcγ receptor III (FcγRIII or CD16) are cell surface receptors for the Fc portion of IgG and important regulators of humoral immune responses. Different ligand binding kinetics of FcγRIII isoforms are obtained in three dimensions by surface plasmon resonance and in two dimensions by a micropipette adhesion frequency assay. We show that the anchor structure of CD16 isoforms isolated from the cell membrane affects their binding affinities in a ligand-specific manner.

Background: Patients requiring extensive platelet transfusion support are prone to platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR), a therapeutic failure of platelet transfusion due to the rapid clearance of transfused platelets from the circulation. PTR can be attributed to the presence of allogeneic anti-HLA class I (HLA-I) antibodies (Abs) within the recipient's circulation. This leads to the rapid elimination of transfused platelets through mechanism that remains poorly understood. Strikingly, not all patients with anti-HLA-I Abs develop PTR upon platelet transfusions raising the question whethe

Abstract A major new challenge for vaccine development is to target APC such as monocytes and macrophages for efficient Ag processing and presentation. It has been shown that Fc gamma R-mediated uptake of Ag-antibody complexes can enhance Ag presentation by myeloid cells at least 100-fold, and directing Ag to Fc gamma R in mice brings about a substantial increase in the effectiveness of immunization while eliminating the requirement for adjuvant. It has not been determined which of the three subclasses of human Fc gamma R on myeloid cells (Fc gamma RI, Fc gamma RII, or Fc gamma RIII) function
