Evolving Identification of Blood Cells Associated with Clinically Isolated Syndrome: Importance of Time since Clinical Presentation and Diagnostic MRI

This study aimed to identify a CIS peripheral blood signature that may provide clues for potential immunomodulatory approaches early in disease

Altered regulatory T-cell fractions and Helios expression in clinically isolated syndrome: clues to the development of multiple sclerosis

These results indicate that T regulatory (Treg) and follicular T regulatory (Tfr) impairment is an early feature in MS.

Exposure to sunlight may limit cardiometabolic risk.

Are low sun exposure and/or Vitamin D risk factors for type 1 diabetes

Evidence supports that higher sun exposure and/or vitamin D sufficiency in pregnancy, or supplementation in early life, decreases type 1 diabetes risk

Ultraviolet radiation, Vitamin D and the development of obesity, metabolic syndrome and type-2 diabetes

Emerging findings suggest a protective role for ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and sun exposure in reducing the development of obesity and cardiometabol…

Analysis of the human monocyte-derived macrophage transcriptome and response to lipopolysaccharide provides new insights into genetic aetiology of inflammatory bowel disease.

We propose that this system provides a model for the differentiation and adaptation of monocytes entering the intestinal lamina propria.
