Mast Cells in Host Defense Against Cutaneous Staphylococcus aureus Infection
Impact of S. aureus epicutaneous sensitization models on mast cell function in vivo. D. farinae and Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) activate Trpv1+ Tac1+ nociceptors to trigger the release of substance P (SP), which promotes mast cell degranulation through Mrgprb2. S.

A PD1‐CD137L fusion protein converts the immunoinhibitory PD‐L1 to an immunostimulatory signal and is more effective than targeting PD‐L1 and CD137 separately. ABSTRACT Tumour immune evasion frequently involves PD‐L1‐mediated inhibition of T cell activity, limiting the efficacy of PD1/PD‐L1 blockade, particularly in PD‐L1‐low or immunologically ‘cold ...

In adults with hematologic malignancies, RSV vaccination was safe and induced antibody and T‐cell responses. However, antibody levels were lower and declined more rapidly than in healthy controls. While early immune responses were evident, reduced magnitude and durability of protection suggest the need for optimized vaccination strategies in this high ...

Currently, there are at least 30 ongoing clinical trials in the enrollment phase to evaluate adding concurrent ICIs to the PACIFIC regimen for a variety of solid tumors. Considering the lack of head‐to‐head comparative studies, this meta‐analysis aims to investigate the differences in efficacy between adding and not adding concurrent ICIs to CRT ...

ABSTRACT Clinical trials combining radiotherapy (RT) with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) have shown improved outcomes in only a fraction of patients, and optimal strategies for integrating these modalities remain under intense investigation. With a few exceptions, phase III combination trials have yielded disappointing results.

Abstract Background RapidArc Dynamic (RAD; Varian Medical Systems, Palo Alto, CA) is a novel volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) technique that features dynamic collimator rotation synchronized with gantry rotation. RAD enables the use of static angle‐modulated ports (STAMPs) defined by user selected gantry and collimator angles.
