Effects of pregnancy on neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder and predictors of related attacks
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1918-1925, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objective Our study aimed to investigate the influence of pregnancy on the course of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) and to explore the independent predictors of pregnancy‐related attacks. Methods We performed a retrospective study of patients with NMOSD based on the Wingerchuk 2006 or the revised Wingerchuk 2015 criteria ...

Therapeutic vaccination using minimal HPV16 epitopes in a novel MHC-humanized murine HPV tumor model
OncoImmunology, 2019 Therapeutic vaccination as a treatment option for HPV-induced cancers is actively pursued because the two HPV proteins E6 and E7 represent ideal targets for immunotherapy, as they are non-self and expressed in all tumor stages.

Probabilistically Certified Region of Attraction of a Tumor Growth Model with Combined Chemo- and Immunotherapy [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 This paper deals with the estimation of regions of attraction (RoAs) under parametric uncertainties for a cancer growth model with combined therapies. We propose a framework of probabilistic certification, based on the randomized methods, in order to derive probabilistically certified RoAs of a cancer growth model.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The authors applied joint/mixed models that predict mortality of trifluridine/tipiracil‐treated metastatic colorectal cancer patients based on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) trajectories. Patients at high risk of death could be spared aggressive therapy with the prospect of a higher quality of life in their remaining lifetime, whereas patients with a ...

Brain magnetic resonance imaging predictors in anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor encephalitis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1974-1984, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objective Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis are nonspecific and rarely have obvious associations with clinical characteristics and outcomes. This study aimed to comprehensively describe the MRI features of patients with NMDAR encephalitis, examine their associations with ...

Immunology, 2001 Over the past decade, tumour immunology has progressed enormously, as a result of the application of a range of new technologies. Screening of tumour gene expression libraries using cancer patients' sera and cancer-specific T lymphocytes has defined a large number of tumour-specific antigenic proteins. The repertoire of known tumour antigens is rapidly

Crosstalk between gut microbiota and tumor: tumors could cause gut dysbiosis and metabolic imbalance
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In this research, we analyzed the relationship between gut microbiota and tumor. We discovered that both subcutaneous and metastatic tumors would alter the composition and metabolic function of gut microbiota. Meanwhile, fecal microbiota transplantation also indicated the anti‐tumor role of the gut microbiota, revealing the crosstalk between tumor and ...

Diversity in medullary thymic epithelial cells controls the activity and availability of iNKT cells
Nature Communications, 2020 Thymus is a unique environment hosting the development of many T cell subsets with distinct functions. Here the authors show that medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTEC) are functionally diverse, with LTβR signaling serving differential regulation of ...
