Distinct immune signatures in directly treated and distant tumors result from TLR adjuvants and focal ablation. [PDF]
, 2018 Both adjuvants and focal ablation can alter the local innate immune system and trigger a highly effective systemic response. Our goal is to determine the impact of these treatments on directly treated and distant disease and the mechanisms for the ...

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 Utilization of the adaptive immune system against malignancies, both by immune-based therapies to activate T cells in vivo to attack cancer and by T-cell therapies to transfer effector cytolytic T lymphocytes (CTL) to the cancer patient, represent major ...

Immunonutrition before esophagectomy: Impact on immune surveillance mechanisms [PDF]
, 2017 Preoperative oral immunonutrition was demonstrated to improve immune response and to decrease the infection rate in patients with cancer. This study aimed to assess how immunonutrition could influence the immune cell response in the mucosal ...

Antigen Presentation by Vascular Cells [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 Antigen presentation by cells of the vessel wall may initiate rapid and localized memory immune responses in peripheral tissues. Peptide antigens displayed on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules on the surface of endothelial cells (ECs) can be recognized by T cell receptors on circulating effector memory T cells (TEM), triggering both ...

Development of a new protocol for 2-day generation of mature dendritic cells from human monocytes
Biological Procedures Online, 2003 We developed a new 2-day protocol for the generation of dendritic cells (DCs) from human monocytes in vitro. First, we demonstrated that 24 hours of culture with GM-CSF and IL-4 are sufficient to generate immature DCs capable of antigen uptake.

Activation and degranulation of CAR-T cells using engineered antigen-presenting cell surfaces.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Adoptive cell transfer of Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR)-T cells showed promising results in patients with B cell malignancies. However, the detailed mechanism of CAR-T cell interaction with the target tumor cells is still not well understood. This work

Antigen presentation to B cells [PDF]
F1000 Biology Reports, 2010 B cells are capable of mounting responses to a bewildering range of potentially pathogenic antigens through the production of high-affinity antibodies and the establishment of immunological memory. Thus, regulated B-cell activation is critical for protection against a variety of bacterial and viral infections, as well as cancers.

Potential mechanism of action of J5 vaccine in protection against severe bovine coliform mastitis. [PDF]
, 2002 Coliform mastitis is one of the most difficult diseases to treat in the modern dairy industry. Curative therapy with antibiotics remains only moderately effective and depends on the stage at which the disease is treated, The most successful strategies ...
