Lung tumor microenvironment induces specific gene expression signature in intratumoral NK cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
Natural Killer (NK) cells are able to recognize and kill tumor cells, however whether they contribute to tumor immunosurveillance is still debated. Our previous studies demonstrated the presence of NK cells in human lung tumors.

Cytotoxic and Immunologic Effects of Methotrexate in Psoriasis

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1990
Based on recent experience that Cyclosporin A, an immunosuppressive drug, produces marked improvement in psoriasis, possible immunomodulatory activities of methotrexate (MTX) have been reviewed to look for alternate mechanisms of MTX action in psoriasis. It is generally considered that the therapeutic results of MTX in psoriasis are related to a direct

Exploiting the neoantigen landscape for immunotherapy of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Immunotherapy approaches for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) have met with limited success. It has been postulated that a low mutation load may lead to a paucity of T cells within the tumor microenvironment (TME).

Tim-3 Is Upregulated in NK Cells during Early Pregnancy and Inhibits NK Cytotoxicity toward Trophoblast in Galectin-9 Dependent Pathway. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
NK cells accumulate at the maternal-fetal interface (MFI) and play essential roles in maintaining immune tolerance during pregnancy. The mechanisms that facilitate NK cells tolerance to fetal tissue are largely unknown.

Genetic Modification of Limbal Stem Cells to Decrease Allogeneic Immune Responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Limbal stem cell (LSC) transplantation is the only efficient treatment for patients affected by LSC deficiency (LSCD). Allogeneic LSC transplantation is one of the most successful alternative for patients with bilateral LSCD.
