Expression of MHC II genes

open access: yes, 2005
Innate and adaptive immunity are connected via antigen processing and presentation (APP), which results in the presentation of antigenic peptides to T cells in the complex with the major histocompatibility (MHC) determinants.

Bioengineered Pancreatic Cancer Immunosuppressive Microenvironment Models for Screening Immunotherapies

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bioengineering tumor‐stroma pancreatic cancer models with potential to emulate the native immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Cancer‐on‐a‐bead models exhibited higher relevance for screening immunotherapies and modulating the protumoral PDAC microenvironment. ABSTRACT Pancreatic cancer is notably resistant to treatment, primarily due to its dense

Rejection of mouse sarcoma cells after transfection of MHC class II genes.

open access: yesJournal of Immunology, 1990
Th cells are stimulated by peptide Ag presented in the context of MHC class II molecules. We have reasoned that immune responses against tumors may be more efficient if tumor cells were class II Ag positive, and thereby able to directly function as APC ...

Mate choice for neutral and MHC genetic characteristics in Alpine marmots : different targets in different contexts? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We warmly thank all students and Earthwatch volunteers involved in catching the marmots and the authorities of the Vanoise National Park for granting us permission to work in the Grande Sassière Nature Reserve. We thank M.

Infusible Extracellular Matrix Biomaterial Enhances Cell‐Specific Pro‐Repair Responses Following Acute Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We measure the cell‐specific responses of administering infusible ECM (iECM) in acute myocardial infarction (MI) across multiple timepoints. Using single‐nucleus RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics, we measure macrophage activation, fibroblast remodeling, increased vascular development, lymphangiogenesis, cardioprotection, and neurogenesis ...
