Accurate control of dual-receptor-engineered T cell activity through a bifunctional anti-angiogenic peptide

Journal of Hematology & Oncology, 2018
Background Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) presented on T cell surfaces enable redirection of T cell specificity, which has enormous promise in antitumor therapy.

Label-free method for anti-glucopeptide antibody detection in Multiple Sclerosis

MethodsX, 2015
Surface plasmon resonance technique is particularly interesting in immunology because it has the potential to visualize label-free antigen-antibody interactions in real-time, thus enabling antibody detection and monitoring.

CD146 Associates with Gp130 to Control a Macrophage Pro‐inflammatory Program That Regulates the Metabolic Response to Obesity

Advanced Science, 2022
The mechanism of obesity‐related metabolic dysfunction involves the development of systemic inflammation, largely mediated by macrophages. Switching of M1‐like adipose tissue macrophages (ATMs) to M2‐like ATMs, a population of macrophages associated with

Recombination of a dual-CAR-modified T lymphocyte to accurately eliminate pancreatic malignancy

Journal of Hematology & Oncology, 2018
Background The therapeutic application of T cells endowing with chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) is faced with “on-target, off-tumor” toxicity against solid tumors, particularly in the treatment of the pancreatic cancer.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor imaging for localization of insulinomas [PDF]

, 2009
The surgical removal of insulinomas is hampered by difficulties to localize it using conventional radiological procedures. Recently these tumors were shown to exhibit a very high density of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors (GLP-1R) in vitro that may be ...

Peptide Stapling Applied to Antimicrobial Peptides

Antibiotics, 2023
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are considered a promising therapeutic approach against multi-drug resistant microorganisms. Besides their advantages, there are limitations to be overcome so that these molecules can become market competitive. One of the biggest limitations is proteolytic susceptibility, which could be overcome by structural modifications

A peptide filtering relation quantifies MHC class I peptide optimization

, 2011
Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class I molecules enable cytotoxic T lymphocytes to destroy virus-infected or cancerous cells, thereby preventing disease progression. MHC class I molecules provide a snapshot of the contents of a cell by binding to
