Cancer Immunotherapy Using Checkpoint Blockade
The release of negative regulators of immune activation (immune checkpoints) that limit antitumor responses has resulted in unprecedented rates of long-lasting tumor responses in patients with a variety of cancers.

Specific immunotherapy in Albanian patients with anaphylaxis to hymenoptera venoms [PDF]
Background: Severe allergic reactions during rush-specific immunotherapy (Rush-SIT) may occur in the treatment of hymenoptera sting allergy. The objective of the present study was to examine the characteristics of allergic reactions during Rush-SIT in a ...

Modulation of Endosome Function, Vesicle Trafficking and Autophagy by Human Herpesviruses
Human herpesviruses are a ubiquitous family of viruses that infect individuals of all ages and are present at a high prevalence worldwide. Herpesviruses are responsible for a broad spectrum of diseases, ranging from skin and mucosal lesions to blindness ...

The Janus-faced roles of macrophages in cancer imply both tumor-suppressive and -stimulating actions of these innate immune cells. Whereas the balance is toward tumor promotion in most epithelial cancers, we have recently shown that osteosarcoma metastasis seems to be inhibited by macrophages. Here we discuss the possible mechanism of this observation.

Clinical effectiveness of hymenoptera venom immunotherapy [PDF]
Treatment failure during venom immunotherapy (VIT) may be associated with a variety of risk factors. Our aim was to evaluate the association of baseline serum tryptase concentration (BTC) and of other parameters with the frequency of VIT failure during ...

Plasma B cells (PC) are a potential source for protein replacement as they could be engineered to secrete protein other than antibody. Here the authors engineer B cells to express exogenous proteins and demonstrate that these cells can persist long term ...

The blockade of immune checkpoints in cancer immunotherapy
Among the most promising approaches to activating therapeutic antitumour immunity is the blockade of immune checkpoints. Immune checkpoints refer to a plethora of inhibitory pathways hardwired into the immune system that are crucial for maintaining self ...
