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

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

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.
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.
