From Cell‐Derived Vesicles to Hybrid Nanovectors: Biological Membranes as Functional Blueprints for Gene Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Biologically derived and hybrid nonviral nanovectors are examined as distinct but convergent design approaches. Integrating synthetic components with biologically functionalized membranes allows efficient interactions with complex cellular environments.

Intrahepatic CD161hiCD8+T Cell Recruitment Has a Pathogenetic Potential in Chronic HBV Infection

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease
Backgrounds and Aims CD8+T cells are crucially associated with the fight against hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. CD161 has been shown to express remarkably on HCV‐specific CD8+T cells.

Comprehensive In Vitro Profiling Demonstrates Successful Immune Evasion of Bioengineered Immune‐Shielded Heart Valves

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Living donor heart valves offer superior durability for pediatric patients but trigger immune rejection. Lentiviral delivery of viral immune‐evasion genes US2 and Serpin b9 into donor valve cells and valve tissue suppresses HLA expression, reduces PBMC clustering and cytotoxic killing, and induces transcriptional immune‐tolerance programs, paving the ...

Pre-existing intratumoral stem-like CD8+ T cells drive radiotherapy-induced tumor immunity

Cell Reports
Summary: CD8+ T cells are crucial for both spontaneous and therapy-induced restriction of tumor progression. Although many patients with cancer undergo radiotherapy, the precise effect of this genotoxic treatment on tumor-associated CD8+ T cells is ...

Genomic and transcriptional Profiling of tumor infiltrated CD8+ T cells revealed functional heterogeneity of antitumor immunity in hepatocellular carcinoma

OncoImmunology, 2019
As key players in HCC antitumor response, the functions of tumor infiltrated CD8+ T cells are significantly affected by surrounding microenvironment. A detailed profiling of their genomic and transcriptional changes could provide valuable insights for ...

Allergen-specific CD8+ T cells and atopic disease [PDF]

, 2002
Considerable evidence suggests that IL-10 may have a role in the manifestation of atopic disease. We sought to test the hypothesis that at the single cell level, allergen-specific T cells have diminished IL-10 production capacity in severely affected ...

Near‐Infrared Light‐Activated Polydopamine Nanoparticles Conjugated With Transferrin Peptides for Enhanced Brain Accumulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that Tf‐PDA NPs combine a receptor‐mediated targeting with mild photothermal activation to enhance nanoparticle accumulation in the brain. NIR‐activated Tf‐PDA NPs increase BBB permeability to NPs in vitro and in vivo without inducing cytotoxicity or adverse immune responses.

Activation of the Hedgehog signaling pathway in T-lineage cells inhibits TCR repertoire selection in the thymus and peripheral T-cell activation [PDF]

, 2007
TCR signal strength is involved in many cell fate decisions in the T-cell lineage. Here, we show that transcriptional events induced by Hedgehog (Hh) signaling reduced TCR signal strength in mice.

CD8 T-Cell Responses before and after Structured Treatment Interruption in Ugandan Adults Who Initiated ART with CD4 T Cells <200 Cell/μL: The DART Trial STI Substudy. [PDF]

, 2011
Objective. To better understand attributes of ART-associated HIV-induced T-cell responses that might be therapeutically harnessed. Methods. CD8(+) T-cell responses were evaluated in some HIV-1 chronically infected participants of the fixed duration STI ...
