Regulation of T cell expansion by antigen presentation dynamics [PDF]
An essential feature of the adaptive immune system is the proliferation of antigen-specific lymphocytes during an immune reaction to form a large pool of effector cells. This proliferation must be regulated to ensure an effective response to infection while avoiding immunopathology.

Purpose The prognostic role of serum cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in breast cancer remains controversial. In this study, we conducted a meta-analysis to investigate the prognostic value of these two markers in breast ...

Human carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is the prototypic member of a family of highly related cell surface glycoproteins that includes carcinoembryonic antigen‐related cell adhesion molecule 6 (CEACAM6) and others.

Molecular tug of war reveals adaptive potential of an immune cell repertoire [PDF]
The adaptive immune system constantly remodels its lymphocyte repertoire for better protection against future pathogens. Its ability to improve antigen recognition on the fly relies on somatic mutation and selective expansion of B lymphocytes expressing high-affinity antigen receptors.

The effects of symmetry on the dynamics of antigenic variation [PDF]
In the studies of dynamics of pathogens and their interactions with a host immune system, an important role is played by the structure of antigenic variants associated with a pathogen. Using the example of a model of antigenic variation in malaria, we show how many of the observed dynamical regimes can be explained in terms of the symmetry of ...

Characteristics of carcinoembryonic antigen-producing colorectal cancers: A population based study [PDF]
Objectives: Serum carcinoembryonic antigen is a tumor marker often found to be elevated in colorectal cancer patients. Elevated carcinoembryonic antigen has been strongly associated with poor prognosis.

Using Ag‐CoFe2O4‐GO nanocomposite as biosensor interface, a novel unlabelled electrochemical immunosensor was designed to detect tumour marker carcinoembryonic antigen. Here, Ag‐CoFe2O4‐GO was synthesized by one‐pot method as an immunological probe. They

Tissue carcinoembryonic antigen (t‐CEA) and serum carcinoembryonic antigen (s‐CEA) expression profiles are the most useful tumor markers for the diagnosis and evaluation of colorectal cancer (CRC) worldwide; however, their roles in CRC progression remain
