Antigen-armed antibodies targeting B lymphoma cells effectively activate antigen-specific CD4+ T cells [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 2015
Key PointsEpitopes in antigen-armed antibodies that target B-cell receptors are efficiently presented by B lymphoma cells to cytotoxic CD4+ T cells. Memory T cells activated by AgAbs ex vivo are able to kill targeted B lymphoma cells.

Expression of CCR6 on Helicobacter pylori-specific circulating CD4+ T cells

open access: yesИнфекция и иммунитет
Introduction. Helicobacter pylori can infect human gastric mucosa and cause various pathological conditions. In the blood of H. pylori-infected patients, the level of mature CD4+CCR6+ T-lymphocytes, especially pro-inflammatory CCR6+ T-helper types 1 and ...

Polyfunctional T cell responses in children in early stages of chronic Trypanosoma cruzi infection contrast with monofunctional responses of long-term infected adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Adults with chronic Trypanosoma cruzi exhibit a poorly functional T cell compartment, characterized by monofunctional (IFN-γ-only secreting) parasite-specific T cells and increased levels of terminally differentiated T cells.

Antigen-Dependent and Antigen-Independent Pathways Modulate CD4 + CD28 null T-Cells During Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2012
To the Editor: We read with interest the article by Dumitriu et al1 that characterized the alternative costimulatory pathways of CD4+CD28null T cells, a terminally differentiated effector T-cell population, in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS).

Establishment of a humanized patient‐derived xenograft mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer for preclinical evaluation of combination immunotherapy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We have established a humanized orthotopic patient‐derived xenograft (Hu‐oPDX) mouse model of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) that recapitulates human tumor–immune interactions. Using combined anti‐PD‐L1/anti‐CD73 immunotherapy, we demonstrate the model's improved biological relevance and enhanced translational value for preclinical ...

Fighting viral infections and virus-driven tumors with cytotoxic CD4+ T cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
CD4+ T cells have been and are still largely regarded as the orchestrators of immune responses, being able to differentiate into distinct T helper cell populations based on differentiation signals, transcription factor expression, cytokine secretion, and

HIV‐1 establishes immediate latency in T cells expressing the viral Nef protein

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Nef is a viral protein often omitted from HIV‐1 reporter viruses. Consequently, its role in viral latency is unclear. We developed three novel dual reporter HIV‐1 derivatives that express Nef and allow for detection of latent and productive infection. Using these reporters, we show that Nef does not affect the establishment of immediate viral latency ...

Neoantigen-specific T cell help outperforms non-specific help in multi-antigen DNA vaccination against cancer

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Oncology
CD4+ T helper antigens are essential components of cancer vaccines, but the relevance of the source of these MHC class II-restricted antigens remains underexplored. To compare the effectiveness of tumor-specific versus tumor-unrelated helper antigens, we

Immunogenicity of targeted lentivectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
To increase the safety and possibly efficacy of HIV-1 derived lentivectors (LVs) as an anti-cancer vaccine, we recently developed the Nanobody (Nb) display technology to target LVs to antigen presenting cells (APCs).

Identification of functional murine mitochondrial formyl peptides and their effects on myeloid‐derived suppressor cell generation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We first identified functional murine mitochondrial N‐formyl peptides (MT‐FPs) and investigated their effects on the in vitro myeloid‐derived suppressor cell (MDSC) generation from bone marrow cells. We demonstrated that MT‐FPs acted directly on bone marrow cells to promote MDSC generation and modulated the polymorphonuclear (PMN)‐MDSC/monocyte (M ...
