Epitope-based vaccines for cancer

open access: yes, 2011
INTRODUCTION Epitope-based cancer vaccination, comprised of minimal immunogenic portions of a cancer antigen, represents an immunotherapy that combines target specifi city with long-lasting immunity. Advances in epitope identifi cation and immunogenicity

Human Papillomavirus Vaccines: An Updated Review

open access: yes, 2020
Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines, which were introduced in many countries in the past decade, have shown promising results in decreasing HPV infection and related diseases, such as warts and precancerous lesions. In this review, we present the updated

Inhibition of Tunneling Nanotube (TNT) Formation and Human T-cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 (HTLV-1) Transmission by Cytarabine

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
The human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is highly dependent on cell-to-cell interaction for transmission and productive infection. Cell-to-cell interactions through the virological synapse, biofilm-like structures and cellular conduits have been ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Targeting purinergic pathway to enhance radiotherapy-induced immunogenic cancer cell death

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2022
Emerging evidence has demonstrated that radiotherapy (RT) can not only cause direct damage to cancer cells but also lead to immunogenic cell death (ICD), which involves the activation of host antitumor immune response in tumor immune microenvironment ...

Cancer vaccines

open access: yesBMJ, 2015
Cancer vaccines are designed to promote tumor specific immune responses, particularly cytotoxic CD8 positive T cells that are specific to tumor antigens. The earliest vaccines, which were developed in 1994-95, tested non-mutated, shared tumor associated antigens that had been shown to be immunogenic and capable of inducing clinical responses in a ...
