Laumbacher B, Fellerhoff-Loesch B, Wank R
Med Hypotheses . 2017 Jan; 99:19-22. PMID: 28110690
So far, the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has not been clarified, nor has patient therapy been satisfactory. Although inheritance dominates the less frequent early-onset AD in young and middle-aged...

Laumbacher B, Gu S, Wank R
Scand J Immunol . 2011 Oct; 75(3):314-28. PMID: 21995310
It has not been considered so far that antigen-presenting cells (APC) may phagocytose immunogenic material from autologous cancer cells. Assuming the presence of cancer-immunogenic material in APC, we developed a...

Fellerhoff B, Laumbacher B, Mueller N, Gu S, Wank R
Mol Psychiatry . 2006 Nov; 12(3):264-72. PMID: 17102800
Several microbes have been suspected as pathogenetic factors in schizophrenia. We have previously observed increased frequencies of chlamydial infections and of human lymphocyte antigen (HLA)-A10 in independent studies of schizophrenia....

Med Hypotheses . 2006 Mar; 67(1):21-6. PMID: 16516398
We ask consulting patients regularly whether they keep pets in order to identify zoonotic factors. It became apparent that patients with breast carcinoma (N=69) owned significantly more often dogs but...

Eur J Immunol . 2001 Aug; 31(8):2458-66. PMID: 11500830
The viral CC chemokine macrophage inhibitory protein-II (vMIP-II) encoded by human herpes virus 8 (HHV-8) binds to multiple chemokine receptors, however, its ability to control the initial recruitment of specific...

Diabetologia . 2001 Feb; 44(1):70-80. PMID: 11206414
Aims/hypothesis: Our aim was to define the molecular specificity of glutamic acid decarboxylase-specific T-cells isolated from a patient (patient 40) with recent onset Type I (insulin-depent) diabetes mellitus. Methods: The...

Weber C, Weber K, Klier C, Gu S, Wank R, Horuk R, et al.
Blood . 2001 Feb; 97(4):1144-6. PMID: 11159551
Chemokines and their receptors control the emigration of leukocytes during inflammation. The role of the RANTES (regulated on activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted) receptors CCR1 and CCR5 in the...

Besser M, Wank R
J Immunol . 1999 Jun; 162(11):6303-6. PMID: 10352239
Neurotrophins, such as neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), are potent regulators of neuronal functions. Here we show that human immune cells also produce NT-3 mRNA, secrete BDNF, and...
