Article Abstract

Objective: This study investigates the role of CD45RO T cell densities in Oral lichen planus (OLP) and oral epithelial dysplasia with lichenoid features (OED), examining their distribution across different disease stages and their implications for disease progression and malignancy risk.

Methods: Histopathological evaluation of 71 tissue samples identified 56 cases of OLP and 15 cases of OED. Subsequent analyses focused on the immunohistochemical expression of CD45RO.

Results: CD45RO T-cell density showed a significant difference between OLP and OED (p = 0.024), with high-density expression notably prevalent in cases of severe dysplasia. A significant correlation was observed between CD45RO T-cell density and the histological grading of dysplasia (p = 0.015). Demographic analysis revealed that older patients exhibited higher CD45RO T cell densities (p < 0.001), though no significant correlation was found between age and the stages of OED (p = 0.93). High-density CD45RO T cells increased the odds of moderate to severe dysplasia (p = 0.01).

Conclusion: CD45RO T cells show stage-specific distribution in oral epithelial dysplasia, suggesting prognostic relevance and offering insight into disease-related immune changes. These findings suggest diagnostic and therapeutic potential. With further validation in larger cohorts, CD45RO monitoring may serve as a useful clinical tool for risk stratification and early intervention, particularly in high-grade OED.

PTPN22-CD45 dual phosphatase retrograde feedback enhances TCR signaling and autoimmunity.

Sci Adv

Department of Medicine, Altman Clinical and Translational Research Institute, University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA.

Protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor type 22 (PTPN22) is encoded by a gene strongly associated with lupus and other autoimmune diseases. PTPN22 regulates T cell receptor (TCR) signaling through dephosphorylation of the kinases lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase (LCK) and zeta-chain-associated protein kinase 70 (ZAP70). The regulation of PTPN22 remains poorly understood.

Autoantibodies against β-cell components in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans are characteristic of type 1 diabetes (T1D). The genetic and autoimmune determinants of type 1 diabetes (T1D) in Ethiopians are not yet thoroughly characterized, with studies indicating a lower occurrence of autoantibodies related to T1D compared to Caucasians. The study aimed to determine the occurrence of autoantibodies related to type 1 diabetes (T1D), celiac disease (CD), and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) in conjunction with Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) genotype in Ethiopian children and adolescents with T1D.

Introduction: We describe the immunophenotyping and genetic analysis of HIV-uninfected apparently immunocompetent adults presenting with disseminated cryptococcosis. Cryptococci are environmentally ubiquitous fungi that may cause disseminated infection including meningitis. Cryptococcosis occurs predominantly in immunocompromised hosts and most commonly in the context of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
