This study identifies CD8+CD20+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes in MS patients, showing increased degranulation and pro-inflammatory cytokine production, particularly Granzyme K, contributing to CNS inflammation.

This study identifies CD20-expressing NK cells with enhanced functionality, memory-like features, and enrichment in inflammatory diseases.

The paper identifies sex-associated DNA methylation differences in ALS using a large-scale epigenome-wide association study and links them to survival outcomes.
