Cytokine-induced killer cell delivery enhances the antitumor activity of oncolytic reovirus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Oncolytic viruses (OV) have recently emerged as a promising therapeutic modality in cancer treatment. OV selectively infect and kill tumor cells, while sparing untransformed cells.

PD-L1 expression is a predictive biomarker for CIK cell-based immunotherapy in postoperative patients with breast cancer

Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2019
Background A sequential combination of radiochemotherapy/endocrinotherapy and cytokine-induced killer cell (CIK) infusion has been shown to be an effective therapy for post-mastectomy breast cancer based on statistical analysis of the patient population.

Combined therapy with cytokine-induced killer cells and oncolytic adenovirus expressing IL-12 induce enhanced antitumor activity in liver tumor model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Both adoptive immunotherapy and gene therapy hold a great promise for treatment of malignancies. However, these strategies exhibit limited anti-tumor activity, when they are used alone.

CIKS/Act1-Mediated Signaling by IL-17 Cytokines in Context: Implications for How a CIKS Gene Variant May Predispose to Psoriasis [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2012
Abstract Psoriasis is a relapsing skin disease characterized by abnormal keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation and by an influx of inflammatory immune cells. Recently, IL-17 cytokines have been strongly implicated as critical for the pathogenesis of this disease.

Ecological Adaptation Mechanisms Underlying Successful Plant Reproduction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
During floral induction, various environmental and endogenous signals converge to regulate the florigen protein, which is transported from leaves to the SAM to initiate flowering. Within the SAM, a complex network of receptor kinases and small peptides orchestrates floral development with high spatiotemporal precision.

Combining antiangiogenic therapy with adoptive cell immunotherapy exerts better antitumor effects in non-small cell lung cancer models. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
INTRODUCTION: Cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK cells) are a heterogeneous subset of ex-vivo expanded T lymphocytes which are characterized with a MHC-unrestricted tumor-killing activity and a mixed T-NK phenotype.

Observation of Excitonic Instability in a Monolayer Ta2NiSe5 With Strain Disorder

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Monolayer Ta2${\rm Ta}_2$NiSe5${\rm NiSe}_5$ sustains an excitonic insulating phase up to 190 K, with Raman signatures of gap opening and critical excitonic fluctuations. Thickness‐independent large gap ratios highlight strong exciton‐phonon coupling, while substrate‐induced strain disorder depresses Tc, establishing monolayer Ta2${\rm Ta}_2$NiSe5${\rm
