Peptidylprolyl isomerase C (Ppic) regulates invariant Natural Killer T cell (iN...
Paiva, Ricardo S.; Ramos, Camila V.; Azenha, Sara R.; Alves, Carolina; Basto, Afonso; Graca, Luis; Martins, Vera C.Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase C (Ppic) is expressed in several bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic progenitors and in T-cell precursors. Since the expression profile of Ppic in the hematoimmune system was suggestive that it could play a role in hematopoiesis and/or T lymphocyte differentiation, we sought to test that hypothesis in vivo. Specifically, we generated a Ppic-deficient mouse model by targeting the e...

The Portuguese Society for Immunology - SPI: history and mission
Alves, Nuno L.; Carvalho, Agostinho; Serre, Karine; Martins, Vera C.; Saraiva, MargaridaThe SPI (Figure 1) was founded in 1973 by group of 13 immunologists who felt the need to create a platform dedicated to education, interaction and state of the art discussion in fundamental and clinical immunology in Portugal. Since then, the Portuguese scientific landscape has tremendously expanded in size, quality and international competitiveness, with the SPI and its members following the same trend. Curren...
