A bacteriophage model based on CRISPR/Cas immune system in a chemostat by Mengshi Shu, Rui Fu, Wendi Wang

“…Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs) along with Cas proteins are a widespread immune system across bacteria and archaea. In this paper, a mathematical model in a chemostat is proposed to investigate the effect of CRISPR/Cas on the bacteriophage dynamics. …”

Mother-fetus immunogenetic dialogue as a factor of progeny immune system development by L. A. Gerlinskaya, A. V. Varlachev, G. I. Krotov, G. V. Kontsevaya, M. P. Moshkin

“…The degree of development of the immune system of children born in time is determined by many factors, including the immunogenetic similarity or difference of mother and fetus organisms, which, in turn, is due to the genotypes of mating pairs, as well as the selection of surrogate mothers during in vitro fertilization. …”

Interaction among Cells of Bone, Immune System, and Solid Tumors Leads to Bone Metastases by Ilaria Roato

“…The affinity of some tumors to growth in bone results from the special microenvironment provided by bone. Moreover, immune system and bone have a bidirectional relationship: bone cells express surface molecules ruling the expansion of hemopoietic stem cells from which all cells of the mammalian immune system derive, and various immunoregulatory cytokines influence the fate of bone cells. …”
