6. Antibody Feedback Regulation and T Cells
Abstract : Antibodies, passively administered or actively produced, regulate immune responses to the antigen they recognize. This phenomenon is called antibody-mediated feedback regulation. Feedback regulation can be positive or negative, resulting in >1000-fold enhancement or >99% suppression of the specific antibody response. READ MORE

7. Importance of microenvironment and antigen in the regulation of growth and survival of CLL cells
Abstract : Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells rapidly die when put in culture implying that microenvironmental signals delivered by accessory cells confer CLL cells with a growth advantage. Recent findings show that CLL cells are antigen experienced and antigen binding play a critical role in the pathogenesis of the disease. READ MORE

8. B cell regulation in autoimmune disease
Abstract : Our immune system protects us from both foreign antigens and self-derived autoantigens by sophisticated regulation. During an immune response, the innate and adaptive parts of the immune system closely collaborate at every stage of the response. READ MORE

9. Antibody Feedback Regulation : From Epitope Masking to T Helper Cell Activation
Abstract : Antibodies have the ability to influence the antibody response against the very antigen they are specific for, in a process called antibody feedback regulation. Depending on the nature of the antigen, the antibody response can be either enhanced or almost completely inhibited. READ MORE

10. Calmodulin mediated regulation of NF-kappaB in lymphocytes
Abstract : NF-κB transcription factors are regulators of a wide spectrum of genes involved in immune responses and inflammation as well as cellular proliferation and survival. Transcriptionally competent NF-κB dimers are retained in the cytoplasm of resting cells by binding to inhibitors of NF-κB (IκBs). READ MORE
