Active maintenance of CD8 T cell naivety through regulation of global genome architecture.

The differentiation of naive CD8 T lymphocytes into cytotoxic effector and memory CTL results in large-scale changes in transcriptional and phenotypic profiles. Little is known about how large-scale changes in genome organization underpin these transcriptional programs. We use Hi-C to map changes in the spatial organization of long-range genome contacts within naive, effector, and memory virus-specific CD8 T cells.

The differentiation of naïve CD8 cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) into effector and memory states results in large scale changes in transcriptional and phenotypic profiles. Little is known about how large-scale changes in genome organisation reflect or underpin these transcriptional programs. We utilised Hi-C to map changes in the spatial organisation of long-range genome contacts within naïve, effector and memory virus-specific CD8 T cells.

T cell ignorance is a specific form of immunological tolerance. It describes the maintenance of naivety in antigen-specific T cells in vivo despite the presence of their target antigen. It is thought to mainly play a role during the steady state, when self-antigens are presented in absence of costimulatory signals and at low density or to T cells of low affinity.

Background: The movement extent of mammals is influenced by human-modified areas, which can affect population demographics. Understanding how human infrastructure influences movement at different life stages is important for wildlife management. This is true especially for large carnivores, due to their substantial space requirements and potential for conflict with humans.

Background: The short-term efficacy of tacrolimus (Tac) for steroid-dependent and steroid-resistant refractory ulcerative colitis (UC) has been demonstrated; however, its long-term outcomes have not been well documented. Thus, this study aimed to clarify the long-term outcomes of patients who achieved Tac-induced remission and identify its predictors.

Methods: This study included patients with moderate-to-severe active UC who started receiving Tac at our hospital between July 2004 and December 2016.
