Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy (3rd edition)

Daniel J. Klionsky, +2522 more
- 21 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.

Sex-based differences in autoimmune diseases.

Elena Ortona, +5 more
- 28 Jun 2016 - 
TL;DR: Possible mechanisms for sex specific differences in autoimmunity with a special focus on three paradigmatic diseases: systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-β2-glycoprotein I antibodies induce monocyte release of tumor necrosis factor α and tissue factor by signal transduction pathways involving lipid rafts

Maurizio Sorice, +10 more
- 01 Aug 2007 - 
TL;DR: New insight is provided into the pathogenesis of APS and anti-β2GPI antibodies react with their target antigen, likely in association with annexin A2 and TLR-4, in lipid rafts in the monocyte plasma membrane, improving the knowledge of valuable therapeutic targets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of Human Immune Response by Echinococcus granulosus Antigen B and Its Possible Role in Evading Host Defenses

Rachele Riganò, +10 more
- 01 Jan 2001 - 
TL;DR: Findings confirm that AgB plays a role in the escape from early immunity by inhibiting PMN chemotaxis and add new information on the host-parasite relationship, suggesting thatAgB exploits the activation of T helper cells by eliciting a nonprotective Th2 cell response.
