1. Immunological aspects of maternal-foetal interactions in mice
Abstract : Mammalian pregnancy is an immunological paradox. The foetus, which expresses both paternal and maternal cell-surface molecules, has to be protected from rejection by the maternal immune system. At the same time, the mother has to have an efficient immune defence and must provide her offspring with antibodies. READ MORE

2. Exosomes : immunomodulators in cancer and therapy
Abstract : Exosomes are nano-sized membrane vesicles derived from the late endosomal compartment. They are capable of transferring proteins, lipids and RNA between cells. B cell and dendritic cell (DC)-derived exosomes express major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II, as well as costimulatory molecules (CD80/86) and can initiate T cell responses.

3. Endothelial cells : dysfunction and repair mechanisms
Abstract : Endothelial cells (ECs) are crucial component of the normal vascular wall, providing an interface between the bloodstream and surrounding tissue of the blood vessel wall. Endothelial progenitors cells (EPCs) circulate in the blood and migrate to regions of the circulatory system with injured endothelium and ischemic tissues. READ MORE

4. Function and Regulation of B-cell Subsets in Experimental Autoimmune Arthritis
Abstract : B lymphocytes play a significant role in autoimmune arthritis, with their function stretching beyond autoantibody production to cytokine secretion and presentation of autoantigen. However, the involvement and activation of different B-cell subset in the autoimmune response is not fully clear. READ MORE

5. Immunoregulation and immunotherapy in experimental autoimmune neuritis
Abstract : Experimental autoimmune neuritis (EAN) is a CD4+ T cell mediated autoimmune disease of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). EAN represents an animal model for studying the immunopathogenesis and immunotherapy of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS). READ MORE
