Development of Chimeric Antigen Receptor‐Modified NK Cells for the Immunotherapy of Adult T‐Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Adult T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is an aggressive hematological malignancy with a poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. ATL cells exhibit aberrant surface glycosylation patterns resulting from dysregulated glycosyltransferase expression, representing a potentially tumor‐specific therapeutic target.

Plasma Elastase Screening in Hematological Disease Reveals Its Potential as a Diagnostic and Prognostic Biomarker in Hematological Malignancies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Neutrophil‐extracellular traps are net‐like material released by triggered neutrophils and composed of decondensed chromatin linked to nuclear proteins. Elastase, one of the fourth most represented neutrophil‐specific serine proteases stored in azurophil granules of naïve neutrophils, exerts various actions, including degradation ...

Innate Immune Activation Is a Strong Suppressor of CCL22 and Impedes Regulatory T Cell–Dendritic Cell Interaction

open access: yesImmunology, EarlyView.
During homeostasis, CCL22 is secreted by dendritic cells (DC), which mediate contacts between regulatory T cells (Treg) and DC to maintain immune balance. Activation of innate immunity via microbes or pattern recognition receptor (PRR) agonists induces the secretion of several soluble factors (e.g., type I and II interferons, IL‐10), which mediate ...
