What Makes for a Successful Digital Health Integrated Program of Work? Lessons Learnt and Recommendations From the Melbourne Children's Campus.

Embedding digital technologies in healthcare has the potential to streamline and personalize medical care. However, healthcare systems are often fragmented, and therefore achieving a truly integrated digital health program can be challenging. To promote a streamlined, evidence-based approach to implementing digital health solutions in a healthcare system, the Murdoch Children's Research Institute (MCRI) established the Digital Health Translation and Implementation Program (DHTI) bringing together clinicians, researchers and digital health experts.

T cell regulation mediated by interaction of soluble CD52 with the inhibitory receptor Siglec-10.

Functionally diverse T cell populations interact to maintain homeostasis of the immune system. We found that human and mouse antigen-activated T cells with high expression of the lymphocyte surface marker CD52 suppressed other T cells. CD52(hi)CD4(+) T cells were distinct from CD4(+)CD25(+)Foxp3(+) regulatory T cells.

Generation and expansion of regulatory human CD4(+) T-cell clones specific for pancreatic islet autoantigens.

Autoantigen-specific regulatory T cells (Treg) are a potential cell therapy for human autoimmune disease, provided they could be generated in adequate numbers and with stable function. To this end, we determined the feasibility of cloning and expanding human CD4(+) Treg specific for the type 1 diabetes autoantigens, GAD65 and proinsulin. Blood CD4(+) cells stimulated to divide in response to GAD65 (in three healthy individuals) or proinsulin (in one type 1 diabetic) were flow sorted into single cells and cultured on feeder cells in the presence of anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody, IL-2 and IL-4.
