Immunoregulatory mechanisms of the arachidonic acid pathway in cancer
FEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 7, Page 927-951, April 2025.The central role of the arachidonic acid (AA) pathway in anticancer immunity. Enzymes and metabolites of the AA pathway can play both immunosuppressive and immunostimulatory roles in the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, their tailored targeting could be beneficial as a standalone therapy or in combination with current cancer immunotherapy.

Game theoretical analysis of Kidney Exchange Programs [PDF]
European Journal of Operational Research, Volume 305, Issue 1,
2023, Pages 373-385, 2019 The goal of a kidney exchange program (KEP) is to maximize number of transplants within a pool of incompatible patient-donor pairs by exchanging donors. A KEP can be modelled as a maximum matching problem in a graph. A KEP between incompatible patient-donor from pools of several hospitals, regions or countries has the potential to increase the number ...
