Psoriasis confined strictly to vitiligo areas--a Koebner-like phenomenon?T G Berger
Department of Dermatology, University Hospital of Erlangen, Erlangen, Germany
J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol 20:178-83. 2006..These skin-infiltrating lymphocytes might trigger, by the local production of Th-1 cytokines such as TNF-alpha and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), the eruption of psoriatic plaques in patients with a genetic predisposition for psoriasis...
Multiple disseminated large-cell acanthomas of the skin associated with human papillomavirus type 6Thomas Berger
Departments of Dermatology, University of Erlangen Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany
J Am Acad Dermatol 53:335-7. 2005..Further analysis revealed, surprisingly, the presence of human papillomavirus (HPV) type 6 within these lesions. HPV type 6 should therefore be considered an important cofactor in the pathogenesis of large-cell acanthomas...
Two unusual cases of diffuse acrodermatitis chronica atrophicans seronegative for Lyme borreliosisT G Berger
, Erlangen, Germany
Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis 22:392-5. 2003
HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors suppress maturation of human dendritic cells: new implications for atherosclerosisAtilla Yilmaz
Medical Clinic II, University Erlangen Nuremberg, Ulmenweg 18, 91054, Erlangen, Germany
Atherosclerosis 172:85-93. 2004..Therefore, the use of statins as immunomodulators might also provide a new therapeutic approach to other immunological disorders...
Immunoglobulin-like transcripts ILT2, ILT3 and ILT7 are expressed by human dendritic cells and down-regulated following activationXin Sheng Ju
Max Delbruck Center for Molecular Medicine, MDC, Robert Rossle Str 10, 13092, Berlin, Germany
Gene 331:159-64. 2004..Thus, activation of human DC with such stimuli involves down-regulation of inhibitory ILT2 and ILT3 receptors, and this could represent a novel mechanism contributing to DC activation...
De novo aphasic status epilepticus as presenting symptom of multiple sclerosisEugen Trinka
J Neurol 249:782-3. 2002
Antibodies as biological markers for pathophysiological processes in MSMarkus Reindl
Clinical Department of Neurology, Innsbruck Medical University, Anichstrasse 35, A-6020 Innsbruck, Austria
J Neuroimmunol 180:50-62. 2006..We believe that antibodies serving as biomarkers will help to establish a differential therapeutic concept in MS, which will allow to treat individuals selectively according to their pathogenetic subtype and disease status...
HLA-B8 association with late-stage melanoma--an immunological lesson?Joachim Fensterle
Inst f Med Strahlenkunde und Zellforschung MSZ, University Clinics of Würzburg, Versbacher Str 5, 97078 Wurzburg, Germany
BMC Med 4:5. 2006..This retrospective study is intended to detect differences in MHC class I carrier frequencies of advanced melanoma patients compared to healthy bone marrow donors...
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, natalizumab, and multiple sclerosisThomas Berger
N Engl J Med 353:1744-6; author reply 1744-6. 2005
Sternal osteomyelitis complicating percutaneous coronary artery stentingHugo Bonatti
Department of General and Transplant Surgery, Innsbruck University Hospital, Innsbruck, Austria
Wien Klin Wochenschr 116:404-6. 2004..Although transcutaneous stenting is a widely accepted strategy for treating stenosed arteries, this case highlights the possibility of hazardous infectious complications associated with such procedures...
Cutaneous melanoma metastasizing to the iris and choroid: a case reportArne Viestenz
Department of Ophthalmology, University Erlangen Nurnberg, Schwabachanlage 6, 91054 Erlangen, Germany
Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 240:1036-8. 2002..Cutaneous melanoma is a primary tumour that rarely produces intraocular metastases. We report on a 47-year-old woman who was referred to our outpatient department because of anisocoria...
Antibody response to myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein and myelin basic protein depend on familial background and are partially associated with human leukocyte antigen alleles in multiplex families and sporadic multiple sclerosisAndreas Lutterotti
Department of Neurology, University of Innsbruck, Anichstrasse 35, A-6020, Innsbruck, Austria
J Neuroimmunol 131:201-7. 2002..We conclude that antibody responses to MOG and MBP depend on familial background. Moreover, the humoral immune reactivity against MOG is partially under control of certain HLA class II alleles...
TLR9 cooperates with TLR4 to increase IL-12 release by murine dendritic cellsGabi Theiner
Department of Dermatology, University Hospital Erlangen, Germany
Mol Immunol 45:244-52. 2008..The stimulatory effect could be further enhanced by addition of IFN-gamma but not anti-CD40 antibodies. These data show, that TLR4 and TLR9 can cooperate to increase selectively IL-12 production by DC...
