Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

An Activity‐Reinforced P‐Modified Single‐Atom Cu Nanozyme Potentiates IDO Blockade‐Induced Tumor Radiotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A phosphorus‐modified single‐atom copper nanozyme delivering the IDO1 inhibitor 1‐methyl‐tryptophan enhances breast cancer radioimmunotherapy by simultaneously relieving hypoxia and inducing immunogenic cell death through dual enzyme activities while blocking tryptophan metabolism to suppress regulatory T cell function.

Blood Cell‐Camouflaged Liquid Metal Nanoconjugates Orchestrate Treg Depletion and STING‐Amplified Photothermal Immunity for Metastatic Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐blood biomimetic engineering transforms liquid metal nanoparticles into a tripartite immunotherapeutic platform that orchestrates regulatory T‐cell depletion, photothermal‐induced immunogenic cell death, and activation of the stimulator of interferon genes pathway.

Utility of newer technologies for the diagnosis of active and latent tuberculosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 91-109).Since the 1800s the tuberculin skin test (TST) has been the only available test for latent tuberculosis (LTBI). Recently, interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs) have been developed which are based upon

The CXCL5/CXCR2 Axis Attenuates Ferroptosis in Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma Through the Positive Feedback Loop Between PTGS2 Transcriptional Activation and Neutrophil Recruitment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The CXCL5/CXCR2 axis directly inhibits ferroptosis in ICC cells by activating the NF‐κB/PTGS2 pathway. Meanwhile, the CXCL5/CXCR2 axis recruits N2 TANs, and the activated PTGS2 promotes the secretion of TNF‐α from the recruited N2 TANs via the CCL2/CCL7/CCR2 pathway, thereby activating the NF‐κB/PTGS2 axis and forming a positive feedback loop, which ...

Interferon signalling in the liver : implications for the natural course and therapy of hepatitis C [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Hepatitis C virus is a global health concern, estimated to infect 2-3% of the world's population. Inter-individual differences in the course of infection and response to therapy, highlighted by recent genomewide association studies, point to the crucial ...
