Invariant natural killer T cells in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

, 2007
Background: the number of type 2 helper CD4+ T cells is increased in the airways of persons with asthma. Whether the majority of these cells are class II major-histocompatibility-complex-restricted cells or are among the recently identified CD1d ...

Tweaking the Complex Fibrogenic Role of Lymphocytes in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis [PDF]

Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a deadly lung disease primarily affecting aged individuals. Even though there are two U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs, nintedanib and pirfenidone, with a recent addition of another drug, nerandomilast ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Natural killer cytolytic activity

, 2010
Natural killer (NK)–mediated cellular killing has been extensively studied over the past 35 years and the current “granule exocytosis” model integrates work from many investigators to outline the primary means of NK cytotoxicity.

Cold Atmospheric Plasma‐Activated Decellularized Extracellular Matrix Gel as a Tumor‐Infiltrating Immunoactivation Platform for Post‐Surgical Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
An injectable cold atmospheric plasma‐activated decellularized tumor extracellular matrix hydrogel is introduced as a post‐surgical immunoactivation platform. The engineered gel attracts residual tumor cells and induces immunogenic cell death, reshaping the tumor microenvironment and eliciting systemic antitumor immunity. In combination with checkpoint

Derivation of mimetic γδ T cells endowed with cancer recognition receptors from reprogrammed γδ T cell.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to derive chimeric antigen receptor-modified T (CAR-T) cells has great industrial potential. A previous study used αβ T cell-derived CAR-modified iPSCs to produce CAR-T cells.

Favorable impact of natural killer cell reconstitution on chronic graft-versus-host disease and cytomegalovirus reactivation after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Haematologica, 2014
Natural killer cells are the first lymphocyte subset to reconstitute, and play a major role in early immunity after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Assessing the response of T cells to "Mycobacterium tuberculosis" lipids [PDF]

, 2008
Most vaccines used nowadays are created using inactivated or attenuated compounds from micro-organisms. Advances in basic immunology and molecular biology opened the gate for consequent improvement of vaccination strategies.

Eutectozymes as Soft Hybrid Materials for Advanced Biocatalysis

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Eutectozymes are sustainable hybrid materials that embed a GOx–HRP cascade within hydrophobic eutectogels featuring a dual supramolecular–covalent network. This architecture preserves native enzyme structure and stability, enables efficient heterogeneous biocatalysis in aqueous media, and positions eutectogels as robust platforms for next‐generation ...
