An alternative diagnostic method using microneedles for sampling the immune system in situ
Current protocols for immune system monitoring involve the collection of cells from blood or cerebrospinal fluid. However, since major populations of immune cells reside within tissues, these invasively-obtained body fluid samples are, at best, indirect indicators of the status of the immune …

A comparison of gene expression in tolerated and rejected islet grafts by gene microarray analysis
… for the discovery of genes that can be used in immune monitoring and as target for new medical therapies for the treatment of rejection.

Characterisation of Alloantibody-Human Leukocyte Antigen Interactions to Improve Immunological Risk Assessment in Solid Organ Transplantation
… are essential for patient evaluation, immune monitoring, and antibody-related immunological risk assessment, however uncertainties concerning data interpretation often prevents determination of an antibody’s clinical significance. The initial aim of this research was to expand the …

Generating immunological signatures of diseases by multiplex analysis of single cells
… large diversity of cells that comprise the human immune system requires methods that can resolve the contributions of individual cells to an immunological response. The release of cytokines is one of several important functions carried out by immune cells. Analytical methods that yield multiple …

Salivary Profiling Reveals Distinct Immune Activity in Periodontitis and Peri-Implantitis
… are limited in their ability to evaluate ongoing immune activity. Saliva has emerged as a promising, non-invasive diagnostic medium capable of reflecting real-time inflammatory processes, yet relatively few studies have directly compared salivary immune profiles between periodontal and …

The CD4⁺ T Cell Response to Human Cytomegalovirus
… In the healthy host, it elicits a broad immune response involving both the innate and adaptive arms of immunity, which is able to limit viral replication and prevent end-organ disease. However, like all herpesviruses, the virus then establishes a lifelong latent infection such that the …

Activation of T regulatory cells in Type II Immune Responses
Monitoring lymphocyte subset changes in renal transplant recipients (RT) may allow direct evaluation of transplant tolerance and possible tailoring of immunosuppression to enhance quality of life and decrease risk of infection or malignancy. We examined changes in subsets of CD4+ T cells, …
