Comprehensive In Vitro Profiling Demonstrates Successful Immune Evasion of Bioengineered Immune‐Shielded Heart Valves

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Living donor heart valves offer superior durability for pediatric patients but trigger immune rejection. Lentiviral delivery of viral immune‐evasion genes US2 and Serpin b9 into donor valve cells and valve tissue suppresses HLA expression, reduces PBMC clustering and cytotoxic killing, and induces transcriptional immune‐tolerance programs, paving the ...

Market Price of Longevity Risk for a Multi‐Cohort Mortality Model With Application to Longevity Bond Option Pricing

Journal of Risk and Insurance, 2018
AbstractWe introduce a multi‐cohort continuous time affine mortality model and, along with an affine arbitrage‐free term structure model, determine implied market prices of longevity risk in the BlackRock CoRI Retirement Indexes. These indexes provide a daily level of estimated cost of lifetime retirement income for 20 cohorts in the United States ...
