Immunosuppressive therapies in myasthenia gravis

open access: yesAutoimmunity, 2010
Immunosuppression is the mainstay of treatment for myasthenia gravis (MG). In this paper, we review the mechanisms of action and clinical application of corticosteroids and different classes of immunosuppressive drugs that are currently used in MG patients, and present the results of their use in more than 1000 patients with MG seen at our two centers.

Pericytes change function depending on glioblastoma vicinity: emphasis on immune regulation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pericytes alter their transcriptome depending on their proximity to the tumor core. In the tumor core, pericytes display a more active state with higher communication strength but with lower immune activation potential and a shift toward extracellular matrix production.

CD73 in small extracellular vesicles derived from HNSCC defines tumour‐associated immunosuppression mediated by macrophages in the microenvironment

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2022
Research on tumour cell‐derived small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) that regulate tumour microenvironment (TME) has provided strategies for targeted therapy of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC).

Alemtuzumab induction and tacrolimus monotherapy in pancreas transplantation: One- and two-year outcomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND. Alemtuzumab (Campath-1H) induction with tacrolimus monotherapy has been shown to provide effective immunosuppression for kidney, liver, lung, and small bowel transplantation.

Immunosuppressants in cancer prevention and therapy [PDF]

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2013
Rapalogs such as rapamycin (sirolimus), everolimus, temserolimus, and deforolimus are indicated for the treatment of some malignancies. Rapamycin is the most effective cancer-preventive agent currently known, at least in mice, dramatically delaying carcinogenesis in both normal and cancer-prone murine strains.

Microglia limit brain tumor development by restricting tumor cell proliferation and inducing T‐cell immunity

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Microglia (BV2) and IL‐4‐treated BMDMs promote astrocytoma clustering and inhibit tumor growth, not shown in other macrophage cells. In vivo, microglial co‐implantation enhances CD8+ T cell infiltration, elevates Granzyme B, lowers circulating MDSCs, and extends survival only in immune‐competent mice, but not in immune‐deficient mice.

The choice of immunosuppressive therapy depending on the level of anti-HLA antibodies in kidney transplantation

open access: yesТрансплантология (Москва), 2018
Seeking to develop immunosuppression regimens that would take into account the patient's level of sensitization to the antigens of the main histocompatibility complex, we studied 123 patients after kidney transplantation.

Targeting immunosuppression for cancer therapy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2013
Failing immunity has been acknowledged for its contribution to cancer development and progression. Recent clinical findings have provided payoffs for significant preclinical evaluation and refinement over the last 20 years, but many questions remain to be answered. In this issue of the JCI, Marabelle et al.

Investigating the cell of origin and novel molecular targets in Merkel cell carcinoma: a historic misnomer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study indicates that Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) does not originate from Merkel cells, and identifies gene, protein & cellular expression of immune‐linked and neuroendocrine markers in primary and metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) tumor samples, linked to Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) status, with enrichment of B‐cell and other immune cell
