The Use of Epstein-Barr Virus-Transformed B Lymphocyte Cell Lines in a Peptide-Reconstitution Assay

Journal of Immunotherapy, 1995
In the development of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated immunotherapy, the identification of CTL epitopes is of crucial importance. Binding of a peptide to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules is one of the prerequisites for its function as a CTL epitope.

Deriving a germinal center lymphocyte migration model from two-photon data [PDF]

, 2008
Recently, two-photon imaging has allowed intravital tracking of lymphocyte migration and cellular interactions during germinal center (GC) reactions. The implications of two-photon measurements obtained by several investigators are currently the subject ...

Profiling neoadjuvant therapy response in rectal cancer using meta‐analysis of publicly available transcriptomic RNA‐seq datasets

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates publicly available transcriptomic datasets to identify molecular signatures associated with response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in locally advanced rectal cancer. By analyzing a combination of multiple cohorts with bioinformatics approaches, we reveal biological pathways and immune‐related features that may improve ...

In silico characterization of Echinococcus granulosus paramyosin nucleotide sequence for the development of epitope vaccine against cystic echinococcosis

Helminthologia, 2017
The paramyosin (Pmy) protein has been presented as a potential vaccine candidate against Schistosoma spp. However, it remains elusive whether it works in controlling cystic echinococcosis (CE), which is caused by the larval stages of Echinococcus ...

HLA-B*35-restricted CD8(+)-T-cell epitope in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv2903c.

, 2002
Few human CD8(+) T-cell epitopes in mycobacterial antigens have been described to date. Here we have identified a novel HLA-B*35-restricted CD8(+) T-cell epitope in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Rv2903c based on a reverse immunogenetics approach.

Predictive and prognostic biomarkers of Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin therapy failure in bladder cancer patients: A systematic review

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
High‐risk bladder cancer is typically treated with Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG), but 30–40% of patients relapse. No FDA‐ or CE‐approved biomarkers currently predict or prognosticate BCG failure. We systematically reviewed the literature and identified 72 eligible studies, revealing several promising biomarkers associated with BCG treatment response ...

Cross-linking of MHC Class II Molecules with Anti-MHC Class II Antibody or Epitope Peptide Prevents Resting B Lymphocyte Differentiation by Inhibiting NF-κB-dependent Gene Expression

Molecules and Cells, 2001
To understand the mechanism(s) involved in anti-MHC class II antibody-mediated inhibition of B lymphocyte differentiation, we investigated the influence of anti-MHC class II antibody treatment on the gene expression of IL-6 in resting B lymphocytes, which had been known to be one of the most important cytokines involved in B cell physiology.

One size does not fit all: An in vitro evaluation of the effects of bezafibrate and medroxyprogesterone acetate on human SH‐SY5Y and U‐87 MG cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Drugs previously repurposed to target blood cancers reduced neuroblastoma and glioblastoma cell growth and viability. However, their levels of anticancer activity were different and their clinical application may be problematic due to side effects at effective doses.

Human monoclonal antibodies to a novel cluster of conformational epitopes on HCV E2 with resistance to neutralization escape in a genotype 2a isolate [PDF]

, 2012
The majority of broadly neutralizing antibodies to hepatitis C virus (HCV) are against conformational epitopes on the E2 glycoprotein. Many of them recognize overlapping epitopes in a cluster, designated as antigenic domain B, that contains residues G530
