Immunity against fungal beta 1,3 glucan carbohydrate in the gastrointestinal tract [PDF]

, 2016
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a debilitating, life- long disease that affects about 1.4 millions Americans. Little is known about the pathogenesis of IBD and an effective cure still remains to be discovered.

C1q acts in the tumour microenvironment as a cancer-promoting factor independently of complement activation [PDF]

, 2015
Complement C1q is the activator of the classical pathway. However, it is now recognized that C1q can exert functions unrelated to complement activation.

Surface‐Associated Proteins on Extracellular Vesicles Remodel the Tumor Microenvironment by Potentiating TGF‐β Signaling in a Contact‐Dependent Manner

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from TGF‐β‐activated CAFs are enriched with ECM proteins such as TSG6 and THBS1, which facilitate their binding to recipient cell membranes. This EV–cell interaction promotes the clustering of CD44 and TGF‐β receptors on the target cell surface, thereby potentiating TGF‐β signaling activity. This study highlights a

Intein mediated high throughput screening for bispecific antibodies

mAbs, 2020
Bispecific antibodies comprise extremely diverse architectures enabling complex modes of action, such as effector cell recruitment or conditional target modulation via dual targeting, not conveyed by monospecific antibodies.

Grabbing the Bull by Both Horns: Bovine Ultralong CDR-H3 Paratopes Enable Engineering of ‘Almost Natural’ Common Light Chain Bispecific Antibodies Suitable For Effector Cell Redirection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
A subset of antibodies found in cattle comprises ultralong CDR-H3 regions of up to 70 amino acids. Interestingly, this type of immunoglobulin usually pairs with the single germline VL gene, V30 that is typically very conserved in sequence.

Ir(III) Complexes Convert Cold to Hot Tumors via Ferroptosis/Necroptosis‐Driven Immunogenic Cell Death and Photosensitized CD47 Downregulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Red‐light‐activated Ir1 overcomes hypoxia tolerance and adapts to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, converting immunologically cold tumors into inflamed hot microenvironments. This conversion is driven by synergistic induction of immunogenic cell death through coordinated ferroptosis‐necroptosis pathways and spatiotemporally controlled ...

Taking up Cancer Immunotherapy Challenges: Bispecific Antibodies, the Path Forward?

Antibodies, 2015
As evidenced by the recent approvals of Removab (EU, Trion Pharma) in 2009 and of Blincyto (US, Amgen) in 2014, the high potential of bispecific antibodies in the field of immuno-oncology is eliciting a renewed interest from pharmaceutical companies ...

EXTH-08. REPLACEMENT OF MICROGLIA BY BRAIN-ENGRAFTED MACROPHAGES PREVENTS MEMORY DEFICITS AFTER THERAPEUTIC WHOLE-BRAIN IRRADIATION [PDF]

, 2019
Microglia have a distinct origin compared to blood circulating myeloid cells. Under normal physiological conditions, microglia are maintained by self-renewal, independent of hematopoietic progenitors. Following genetic or pharmacologic depletion, newborn
