A., & Kern, F. (2018). CD28null pro-atherogenic CD4 T-cells explain the link between CMV infection and an increased risk of cardiovascular death. Theranostics, 8(16), 4509-4519. https://doi.org/10.7150/thno.27428

An increased risk of cardiovascular death in Cytomegalovirus (CMV)-infected individuals remains unexplained, although it might partly result from the fact that CMV infection is closely associated with the accumulation of CD28null T-cells, in particul...

Interleukin-7 unveils Pathogen-Specific T Cells by enhancing Antigen-Recall responses (2018)
Journal Article
Terrazzini, N., Mantegani, P., Kern, F., Fortis, C., Mondino, A., & Caserta, S. (2018). Interleukin-7 unveils Pathogen-Specific T Cells by enhancing Antigen-Recall responses. The journal of infectious diseases : official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America, 217(12), 1997-2007. https://doi.org/10.1093/infdis/jiy096

© 2018 The Author(s). Background Interleukin (IL)-7 promotes the generation, expansion, and survival of memory T cells. Previous mouse and human studies showed that IL-7 can support immune cell reconstitution in lymphopenic conditions, expand tumor-r...

Severity of Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Affects the Blood Levels of Circulating Inflammatory-Relevant MicroRNAs (2018)
Journal Article
Caserta, S., Mengozzi, M., Kern, F., Newbury, S. F., Ghezzi, P., & Llewelyn, M. J. (2018). Severity of Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome Affects the Blood Levels of Circulating Inflammatory-Relevant MicroRNAs. Frontiers in immunology, 8, Article ARTN 1977. https://doi.org/10.3389/fimmu.2017.01977

The systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a potentially lethal response triggered by diverse forms of tissue injury and infection. When systemic inflammation is triggered by infection, the term sepsis is used. Understanding how inflammati...
