Immunogenicity of decellularized extracellular matrix scaffolds: a bottleneck in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine

open access: yesBiomaterials Research, 2023
Tissue-engineered decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffolds hold great potential to address the donor shortage as well as immunologic rejection attributed to cells in conventional tissue/organ transplantation.

Stochastic model of T Cell repolarization during target elimination (I) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (T) and natural killer (NK) cells are the main cytotoxic killer cells of the human body to eliminate pathogen-infected or tumorigenic cells (i.e. target cells). Once a NK or T cell has identified a target cell, they form a tight contact zone, the immunological synapse (IS).

Actin Cytoskeleton Remodeling Drives Breast Cancer Cell Escape from Natural Killer-Mediated Cytotoxicity.

open access: yesCancer Research, 2018
Elucidation of the underlying molecular mechanisms of immune evasion in cancer is critical for the development of immunotherapies aimed to restore and stimulate effective antitumor immunity.

SDF-1α Reduces Human Natural Killer Cell Cytotoxicity against Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia K562 Cells

open access: yesIranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2019
Stromal cell-derived factor-1 alpha (SDF-1α) has been shown to be up-regulated in a variety of malignancies. So that, its expression is associated with poor prognosis and invasiveness.

Bayesian Models and Decision Algorithms for Complex Early Phase Clinical Trials [PDF]

open access: yesStatistical Science 2010, Vol. 25, No. 2, 227-244, 2010
An early phase clinical trial is the first step in evaluating the effects in humans of a potential new anti-disease agent or combination of agents. Usually called "phase I" or "phase I/II" trials, these experiments typically have the nominal scientific goal of determining an acceptable dose, most often based on adverse event probabilities.

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.

Search and capture efficiency of dynamic microtubules for centrosome relocation during IS formation [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal (2019), 2019
Upon contact with antigen presenting cells (APCs) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (T cells) establish a highly organized contact zone denoted as immunological synapse (IS). The formation of the IS implies relocation of the microtubule organizing center (MTOC) towards the contact zone, which necessitates a proper connection between MTOC and IS via dynamic ...

Evidence for immunologic mechanisms in human vitiligo: patients' sera induce damage to human melanocytes in vitro by complement-mediated damage and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity.

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1988
Human vitiligo is a common depigmenting disorder that is often associated with polyendocrinopathies. The etiology of vitiligo is unknown although there is indirect evidence of a strong association between antimelanocyte antibodies in animal and human ...

In vitro Cytotoxicity in Delayed-Type Hypersensitivity and Immunologic Tolerance.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1964
SummaryPicryl chloride was found to exert a lethal effect in vitro on leukocytes, principally lymphocytes, from guinea pigs exhibiting delayed-type skin reactivity to this hapten in the absence of antibody and complement. This reaction was found to be immunologically specific.
