Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

ABSTRACT D‐dimer defines degradation products derived from the proteolysis mediated by plasmin on cross‐linked fibrin. The evidence‐based use of D‐dimer in some conditions has been consolidated. Currently, however, there is an entrenched prescription of D‐dimer testing to screen otherwise healthy subjects that may induce prescribing physicians to start

In the LEAD cohort, micro‐arrayed asthma allergens identified IgE‐sensitized adult asthma patients. Compared to non‐IgE‐sensitized patients, they had better lung function, took less ICS and had lower eosinophils. IgE‐sensitized patients were sensitized to a handful of respiratory allergen sources and may benefit from allergen‐specific forms of ...

Delayed-Type hypersensitivity to latex: Computational prediction of MHC class II epitopes on latex allergens [PDF]
Delayed type hypersensitivity to natural rubber latex is rare compared to IgE mediated immediate reactions. Binding of allergens to MHC Class II is a crucial step in the presentation of antigens to CD4+ T Cells responsible for delayed reactions ...
