Mucosal-associated invariant T cells contribute to suppression of inflammatory myeloid cells in immune-mediated kidney disease.

Veröffentlicht: von & gespeichert unter Allgemein.

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells have been implicated in various inflammatory diseases of barrier organs, but so far, their role in kidney disease is unclear. Here we report that MAIT cells that recognize their prototypical ligand, the vitamin B2 intermediate 5-OP-RU presented by MR1, reside in human and mouse kidneys. Single cell RNAseq analysis reveals… Read more »

Plasma pTau-217 and N-terminal tau (NTA) enhance sensitivity to identify tau PET positivity in amyloid-β positive individuals.

„Introduction: We set out to identify tau PET-positive (A+T+) individuals among amyloid-beta (Aβ) positive participants using plasma biomarkers. Methods: In this cross-sectional study we assessed 234 participants across the AD continuum who were evaluated by amyloid PET with [18 F]AZD4694 and tau-PET with [18 F]MK6240 and measured plasma levels of total tau, pTau-181, pTau-217, pTau-231,… Read more »

Mobile health interventions in multiple sclerosis: A systematic review.

Veröffentlicht: von & gespeichert unter Allgemein.

Background: Persons with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) might be particularly well suited to benefit from digital health applications because they are, on average, younger and less severely disabled than patients with many other chronic diseases. Many digital health applications for pwMS have been developed. Objectives: Analysis of the evidence of digital health applications to improve health… Read more »
