    Lymph Node Stromal Laminins Differentially Regulate T Cell Activation.

    T. Simon, J. Bromberg.

    University of Maryland, Baltimore

    Background:Our recent work demonstrated that laminins α4β1γ1 and α5β1γ1, components of the lymph node (LN) stroma, are differentially regulated. Tolerance is associated with relatively higher…

    Transcriptome Analysis of CD4-Lymphocyte Specifically Deleted of IKKbeta or NEMO in an Experimental Model of Rapid Progressive Glomerulonephritis (RPGN).

    F. Thaiss,1 J. Huang,2 M. Chen,1 H. Paust,1 G. Zahner,1 M. Alawi,2 R. Geffers,3 L. Guo.1

    1Nephrology, Univ. Hospital UKE, Hamburg, Germany; 2Bioinformatics, Univ. Hospital UKE, Hamburg, Germany; 3Genomics, Helmholtz Center Infection, Braunschweig, Germany

    RPGN is T-cell mediated and can recur after kidney transplantation. T-cell receptor stimulation leads to intracellular signaling events ultimately causing activation of transcription factors such…

    Blockade of Tim-3 and PD-1 Reverses Dysfunctions of Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes in HBV Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

    A. Hu, F. Liu, X. Zhu, X. He.

    The First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China

    The immunosuppression of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) is associated with rapid progress of hepatitis B virus related hepatocellular carcinoma (HBV-HCC). The inhibition molecules of T…
