Improving cellular cancer vaccines [PDF]
Immunization with cancer cells is of great demand in anti-cancer therapy. However, current cellular vaccines are inefficient and there are questions regarding their overall safety. We report a simple and straightforward approach for improving of cellular

Therapeutic Antibodies to Ganglioside GD2 Evolved from Highly Selective Germline Antibodies
Antibodies play a crucial role in host defense and are indispensable research tools, diagnostics, and therapeutics. Antibody generation involves binding of genomically encoded germline antibodies followed by somatic hypermutation and in vivo selection to

Comparison of schistosoma mansoni soluble cercarial antigens and soluble egg antigens for serodiagnosing schistosome infections [PDF]
A Schistosoma mansoni cercarial antigen preparation (cercarial transformation fluid – SmCTF) was evaluated for detection of anti-schistosome antibodies in human sera in 4 collaborating laboratories.

Carbohydrate-based therapeutic vaccines are actively pursued as targeted immunotherapy to treat cancer. Aberrant glycosylation is indeed of paramount importance in tumors, leading to the formation of “neo-epitopes”, known as tumor-associated carbohydrate

Cyclophosphamide chemotherapy sensitizes tumor cells to TRAIL-dependent CD8 T cell-mediated immune attack resulting in suppression of tumor growth [PDF]
Background: Anti-cancer chemotherapy can be simultaneously lymphodepleting and immunostimulatory. Pre-clinical models clearly demonstrate that chemotherapy can synergize with immunotherapy, raising the question how the immune system can be mobilized to ...

MGL‐Based Drug Conjugate: A Novel Glycan‐Targeting Strategy for Potential Precision Cancer Therapy
Cancer remains a major cause of mortality, especially in advanced stages where current therapies are less effective. Antibody‐drug conjugates offer targeted treatment, but their efficacy is limited by on‐target/off‐tumor toxicity since most protein ...

Immunoblotting in Detection of Tumor-Associated Antigens in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) can be used as cancer markers and as signposts of therapeutic targets since their inimitable expression in cancer or significant overexpression in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) correlates with the initiation ...
