Advances and Strategies in Enhancing mRNA Cancer Vaccines

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines offer a powerful approach for cancer immunotherapy, but their clinical impact remains limited by delivery challenges and suboptimal immune activation. This review discusses key biological barriers and design strategies—including structural optimization, immunomodulation, organ targeting delivery, and advanced nanocarriers ...

Myasthenia gravis, respiratory function, and respiratory tract disease

Journal of Neurology, 2023
AbstractMyasthenia gravis (MG) is characterized by muscle weakness caused by autoantibodies that bind to the postsynaptic membrane at the neuromuscular junction and impair acetylcholine receptor function. Weakness of respiratory muscles represents the most severe MG manifestation, and 10–15% of all patients experience an MG crisis with the need of ...

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.

Frequent detection of bocavirus DNA in German children with respiratory tract infections

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2006
Background In a substantial proportion of respiratory tract diseases of suspected infectious origin, the etiology is unknown. Some of these cases may be caused by the recently described human bocavirus (hBoV). The aim of this study was to investigate the

Respiratory tract diseases and cytokine.

Nihon Naika Gakkai Zasshi, 1995
サイトカインは,リンパ球,マクロファージなどの細胞から産生される免疫反応・炎症を調節・制御する因子である.多種類のサイトカインが発見され,呼吸器疾患においてもサイトカインがその病態に関与する事が明らかとなり,あるいは治療に応用されている.主要サイトカインとしては,インターロイキン(IL-1～IL-10),インターフェロン,コロニー刺激因子(CSF),腫瘍壊死因子(TNF)などが知られている.肺線維症においては線維芽細胞増殖に対し, PDGFとIGF-Iが重要な働きをしている事が知られている.サルコイドーシスにおいては, TNF-α, IL-6, PDGF, GM-CSFが肺局所で増加し,肉芽腫形成に関与していると推測されている.気管支喘息では, IL-5は好酸球を活性化し, IgE産生については ...

Streptococcus suis – The “Two Faces” of a Pathobiont in the Porcine Respiratory Tract

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Streptococcus (S.) suis is a frequent early colonizer of the upper respiratory tract of pigs. In fact, it is difficult to find S. suis-free animals under natural conditions, showing the successful adaptation of this pathogen to its porcine reservoir host.
