- CD28-Mediated regulation of mRNA stability requires sequences within the coding region of the IL-2 mRNA.
- Anergy and cytokine-mediated suppression as distinct superantigen-induced tolerance mechanisms in vivo.
- The destabilization of IL-2 mRNA by a premature stop codon and its differential stabilization by trans-acting inhibitors of protein synthesis do not support a role for active translation in mRNA stability.
- IL-2 receptor blockade inhibits late, but not early, IFN-gamma and CD40 ligand expression in human T cells: disruption of both IL-12-dependent and -independent pathways of IFN-gamma production.
- Selective cytoplasmic translocation of HuR and site-specific binding to the interleukin-2 mRNA are not sufficient for CD28-mediated stabilization of the mRNA.
- Targeted infection of HIV-1 Env expressing cells by HIV(CD4/CXCR4) vectors reveals a potential new rationale for HIV-1 mediated down-modulation of CD4.
- The role of cytokine mRNA stability in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disease.
- The treatment of multifocal choroiditis associated choroidal neovascularization with sirolimus (rapamycin).
- Direct inhibition of CD40L expression can contribute to the clinical efficacy of daclizumab independently of its effects on cell division and Th1/Th2 cytokine production.
- Human CD14hi monocytes and myeloid dendritic cells provide a cell contact-dependent costimulatory signal for early CD40 ligand expression.
- Taking immunogenicity assessment of therapeutic proteins to the next level.
- IL-2 regulates expression of C-MAF in human CD4 T cells.
- The future of protein particle characterization and understanding its potential to diminish the immunogenicity of biopharmaceuticals: a shared perspective.
- The serological evidence in humans supports a negligible risk of zoonotic infection from porcine circovirus type 2.
