Regulatory T （Treg） cells play a critical role in the maintenance of tolerance. B-la cells belong to a specific and functionally important B-cell subset that exerts its regulatory role through the production of IL-IO. While IL-IO has been correlated with the induction of type 1 Treg （Trl） cells or Trl-like cells, whether IL-lO-producing B-la cells are able to induce Treg cells, especially the Trl lineage, is poorly understood. We have demonstrated that, similar to the reported B-2 cells, B-la cells are able to convert naive CD4＋CD25- T cells into a subset of T cells with suppressive function, which we called ＇Treg-of-Bla＇ cells. Treg-of-Bla cells do not express Foxp3, but upregulate the Treg markers OX40, programmed death 1 （PD-1）, inducible costimulator （ICOS） and IL-IOR. Moreover, Treg-of-Bla cells do not express Foxp3 and produce high levels of IFN-y and IL-IO, but minimal amounts of IL-4; therefore, they resemble Trl cells. However, utilizing IL-10-/- mice, we showed that IL-IO was not involved in the induction of Treg-of-Bla cells. On the contrary, CD86-mediated costimulation was essential for B-la cells to drive the induction of Treg-of-Bla cells. Finally, we demonstrated that, in contrast to the Treg cells generated by B-2 cells that mediate contact-dependent suppression, Treg-of-B la cells suppress through secreting soluble factors. While Trl cells mediate suppression mainly through IL-IO or TGF-10secretion, Treg-of-Bla cells mediate suppression through an IL-10- and TGF-10-independent pathway. Together, these findings suggest that B-la cells induce a functionally and phenotypically distinct Treg population that is dissimilar to the reported Foxp3＋ Treg or Trl cells.

睡眠障碍在特应性皮炎(AD)患者中非常普遍,是导致生活质量下降的主要因素。睡眠障碍不仅是AD常见症状之一,同时也是评价疾病严重程度的一个指标。本文综述AD相关的多种睡眠问题,以及睡眠问题对AD患者的诸多影响,还讨论了目前对AD患者睡眠障碍机制的认识。睡眠问题和AD之间相互影响并可能形成恶性循环,因此,我们建议将睡眠问题视为AD的并发症,需要定期筛查和双向治疗策略,同时注重病情控制和改善睡眠质量。

This paper considers downlink multiuser multiple-input-multiple-output system with parallel spatial modulation scheme, in which base station transmitter antennas are separated into K groups corresponding to K user terminals. Generalized spatial modulation is employed, in which a subset(more than single antenna) of transmit antenna array are activated and the activating pattern corresponds to specific spatial symbol. Different from existing precoding-based algorithms, we develop a two-stage detection scheme at each user terminal: In the pre-processing stage, a minimax algorithm is proposed to identify the indices of active antennas, where the key idea is that the minimum output energy of the detector is maximized; A constrained minimum output energy algorithm is proposed in the post-processing stage to mitigate multiuser interference and extract temporal symbols. Compared with existing precoding-based algorithms, the complexity is significantly reduced. Moreover, the proposed algorithm is semi-blind,in which only a small subset of channel state information is required to identify active antennas as well as eliminate multiuser interference. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is near-far resistant and the spectral efficiency is extensively increased compared to the conventional spatial modulation scheme.
