Cationic residues in pathogenic anti-DNA autoantibodies arise by mutations of a germ-line gene that belongs to a large VH gene subfamily.

abstract：:Dopamine by itself has not up to now been reported to activate T cell function. We show here that dopamine interacts directly with dopaminergic receptors on normal human T cells and triggers beta1 integrin-mediated T cell adhesion to a major extracellular matrix component, fibronectin (FN). Such adhesion is a characte...

An emerging theme is that neutrophil PRRs often exhibit cell type-specific adaptations in their signalling pathways. This prompted us to examine inflammasome signalling by the PRR NLRP3 in muri...
