B Cells Regulate Neutrophilia during Mycobacterium tuberculosis Infection and BCG Vaccination by Modulating the Interleukin-17 Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have previously demonstrated that B cells can shape the immune response to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, including the level of neutrophil infiltration and granulomatous inflammation at the site of infection. The present study examined the mechanisms by

Immunosuppressive Cytokine‐Tethered Hydrogel for Treating Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An injectable hydrogel is developed by chemically tethering IL‐4, an immunosuppressive cytokine, to a hyaluronic acid‐based backbone. The hydrogel reduces joint friction and exerts immunomodulatory effects. In a rheumatoid arthritis (RA) mouse model, it reduced inflammation, preserved cartilage, and promoted anti‐inflammatory immune responses.

Post-marketing safety surveillance study of a 9-valent human papillomavirus vaccine in individuals aged 16–26 years in Chongqing, China

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2023
The safety of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines, one of the major challenges to public vaccination, has been controversial. This study assessed the adverse reactions of 9-valent HPV (9vHPV) vaccines.

Immunization Dynamics on a 2-layer Network Model

open access: yes, 2003
We introduce a 2-layer network model for the study of the immunization dynamics in epidemics. Spreading of an epidemic is modeled as an excitatory process in a small-world network (body layer) while immunization by prevention for the disease as a dynamic

Immunization strategies targeting newly arrived migrants in Non-EU countries of the mediterranean basin and black sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: The World Health Organization recommends that host countries ensure appropriate vaccinations to refugees, asylum seekers and migrants. However, information on vaccination strategies targeting migrants in host countries is limited. Methods: In

Polyanhydride‐Based Microparticles for Programmable Pulsatile Release of Diphtheria Toxoid (DT) for Single‐Injection Self‐Boosting Vaccines

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a polyanhydride‐based delivery platform for single‐injection, self‐boosting vaccines. The system enables programmable, pulsatile release of diphtheria toxoid with high antigen recovery and is guided by machine learning for tunability. In vivo results show immune responses comparable to multi‐dose regimens, highlighting its potential

Immunogenicity of trivalent seasonal influenza vaccine in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

open access: yesHuman Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics, 2021
Objective: Current evidence on the immunogenicity of influenza vaccination in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is limited. To address this need for additional knowledge, we conducted a study on the immunogenicity of trivalent ...

Immunization strategies for epidemic processes in time-varying contact networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Spreading processes represent a very efficient tool to investigate the structural properties of networks and the relative importance of their constituents, and have been widely used to this aim in static networks.

Designing the Next Generation of Biomaterials through Nanoengineering

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Nanoengineering enables precise control over biomaterial interactions with living systems by tuning surface energy, defects, porosity, and crystallinity. This review highlights how these nanoscale design parameters drive advances in regenerative medicine, drug delivery, bioprinting, biosensing, and bioimaging, while outlining key translational ...
