This study shows that knocking down the long isoform of the prolactin receptor reduces pathogenic immune cells and prevents lupus nephritis in SLE-prone mice.

The paper measures ligand discrimination errors and molecular noise in immune cells of ER+ breast cancer patients compared to healthy controls using a communication model.

The paper shows that lymphocytes and monocytes suppress IL-10R, IL-6R, and IL-2Rβγ signaling under high cytokine concentrations, mediated by cytokines that do not induce their own pSTATs.

The paper identifies PINK1 as an autoantigen targeted by T cells in Parkinson's disease, with reactivity predominantly observed in male patients.
