Neonatal NK cells target the mouse duct epithelium via Nkg2d and drive tissue-specific injury in experimental biliary atresiaPranavkumar Shivakumar
Cincinnati Children s Hospital Medical Center and Department of Pediatrics, University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Cincinnati, Ohio 45229 3039, USA
J Clin Invest 119:2281-90. 2009..These findings identify NK cells as key initiators of cholangiocyte injury via Nkg2d and demonstrate that injury to the duct epithelium drives the phenotype of experimental biliary atresia...

Division of Cellular and Molecular Immunology, Department of Pediatrics, Cincinnati Children s Hospital Medical Center and the University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, OH 45229, USA
Curr Opin Immunol 24:482-7. 2012..As Treg control the intensity of T cell responses, their accrual probably contributes to age-related immune dysfunction. This review will focus on mechanisms underlying Treg homeostasis and function in aging...
Frequency of circulating regulatory T cells increases during chronic HIV infection and is largely controlled by highly active antiretroviral therapyPietro Presicce
Division of Molecular Immunology, Cincinnati Children s Hospital Research Foundation, Department of Pediatrics, University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Cincinnati, Ohio, United States of America
PLoS ONE 6:e28118. 2011..The most striking difference in terms of functional molecules was the high expression of CD39 by Tregs in untreated patients, which HAART only partially controlled...
Post-natal paucity of regulatory T cells and control of NK cell activation in experimental biliary atresiaAlexander G Miethke
Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition, Cincinnati Children s Hospital Medical Center, MLC 2010, 3333 Burnet Avenue, Cincinnati, OH 45229 3039, USA
J Hepatol 52:718-26. 2010..Although recent studies have identified important roles for T and NK cells in the pathogenesis of biliary atresia (BA), the mechanisms by which susceptibility to bile duct injury is restricted to the neonatal period are unknown...
Regulatory T cells control the CD8 adaptive immune response at the time of ductal obstruction in experimental biliary atresiaCeline S Lages
Division of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition, Cincinnati Children s Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, OH 45229 3039, USA
Hepatology 56:219-27. 2012..CONCLUSION: Activation of hepatic T-lymphocytes driving biliary obstruction in BA is regulated by mDCs by way of CD86-dependent costimulation and is susceptible to inhibition by Tregs...
In vitro HIV infection impairs the capacity of myeloid dendritic cells to induce regulatory T cellsPietro Presicce
Division of Cellular and Molecular Immunology, Cincinnati Children s Hospital Research Foundation, and Department of Pediatrics, University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Cincinnati, Ohio, United States of America
PLoS ONE 7:e42802. 2012..Taken together, our data suggest that Treg induction may be defective when DCs are exposed to high levels of virus, such as during the acute phase of infection or in AIDS patients...
Myeloid dendritic cells isolated from tissues of SIV-infected Rhesus macaques promote the induction of regulatory T cellsPietro Presicce
Division of Molecular Immunology, Cincinnati Children s Hospital Research Foundation, University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Ohio, USA

Division of Molecular Immunology, Cincinnati Children s Hospital Research Foundation, Cincinnati, Ohio 45229, USA
J Virol 83:1193-200. 2009..Our results suggest that the engagement of CD4 by HIV gp120 prior to T-cell receptor stimulation leads to dysregulation of early signaling events and could consequently play an important role in impaired CD4(+) T-cell function...
