Applications of chitosan derivatives as adjuvants for nanoparticle‐based vaccines: A comprehensive review

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
This review highlights how chitosan derivatives enhance nanoparticle‐based vaccines through superior stability, mucoadhesion, and immune modulation. By triggering robust mucosal, humoral, and cellular responses, these biocompatible polymers serve as a transformative platform for next‐generation immunotherapeutics and safe and effective vaccine delivery

T Cell Microenvironmental Impacts and Therapeutic Opportunities: Application to Human Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the leading malignancy in adolescent and young adult males, yet the immunological and cellular mechanisms governing their tumor microenvironment (TME) remain poorly understood. Here, we present a comprehensive review of TGCT pathobiology with a focus on the immune landscape, particularly the role of tumor‐

Sensitive detection systems for infectious agents in xenotransplantation*

Xenotransplantation, EarlyView., 2020
Abstract Xenotransplantation of pig cells, tissues, or organs may be associated with transmission of porcine microorganisms, first of all of viruses, to the transplant recipient, potentially inducing a disease (zoonosis). I would like to define detection systems as the complex of sample generation, sample preparation, sample origin, time of sampling ...

Post‐Exposure Hepatitis B‐Treatment in Newborns: A Qualitative Study on Interprofessional Practices in Norway

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Children born to mothers with chronic Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection are at substantial risk of developing chronic HBV‐infection without appropriate perinatal post‐exposure treatment. This study aimed to explore midwives' and public health nurses' (PHNs) experiences with HBV‐post‐exposure treatment for infants and identify factors ...

Rationale for Recommending Varicella Vaccination Into the Swedish National Immunisation Programme

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Under Swedish law, a vaccination may be included in the National Immunisation Programme (NIP) if it effectively prevents transmission in the population, is cost‐effective and aligns with ethical and humanitarian principles. The Public Health Agency of Sweden (PHAS) evaluated these criteria for introducing varicella vaccination. Methods The

A Personalised Vaccination Program Based on Immune Reconstitution in Paediatric Cancer Survivors

Acta Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Paediatric cancer survivors often experience treatment‐induced immunosuppression, requiring post‐treatment revaccination. However, immune recovery timelines vary, and current revaccination guidelines, largely based on data of varied quality derived from studies on acute‐lymphoblastic‐leukaemia (ALL), may not be applicable across all ...
