Integrating genealogical and dynamical modelling to infer escape and reversion rates in HIV epitopes [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
The rates of escape and reversion in response to selection pressure arising from the host immune system, notably the cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response, are key factors determining the evolution of HIV. Existing methods for estimating these parameters from cross-sectional population data using ordinary differential equations (ODE) ignore information

Increased function of P-glycoprotein in T lymphocyte subsets of aging mice.

Journal of Immunology, 1993
The age-associated decline in T lymphocyte function can be attributed in part to shifts between subsets (in particular the accumulation of memory T cells at the expense of naive T cells), and in part to alterations of function within the different T ...

Understanding and measuring mechanical signals in the tumor stroma

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review discusses cancer‐associated fibroblast subtypes and their functions, particularly in relation to extracellular matrix production, as well as the development of 3D models to study tumor stroma mechanics in vitro. Several quantitative techniques to measure tissue mechanical properties are also described, to emphasize the diagnostic and ...

Peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets in children with nephrotic syndrome: a retrospective analysis

BMC Nephrology, 2023
Background Nephrotic syndrome (NS) in children is widely believed to be associated with severe changes in the immune system. Based on lymphocyte subset analysis, we examined the pathogenesis of immune deficiencies in children with NS with varying steroid

Strategies to Design and Optimize Artificial Antigen‐Presenting Cells for T Cell Expansion in Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in engineering artificial antigen‐presenting cells (aAPCs) as alternatives to dendritic cells for T cell expansion. Key design principles inspired by the immunological synapse are discussed, with emphasis on strategies for polyclonal and antigen‐specific T cell expansion.

Constructing Lower-Bounds for CTL Escape Rates in Early HIV and SIV Infection [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Intrahost simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) evolution is marked by repeated viral escape from cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTLs) response. Typically, the first such CTL escape occurs in a matter of days, starting around the time of peak viral load. Many authors have developed methods to quantify the strength of CTL response by measuring the rate at which ...

Entire curves avoiding given sets in C^n [PDF]

, 2003
Let $F\subset\Bbb C^n$ be a proper closed subset of $\Bbb C^n$ and $A\subset\Bbb C^n\setminus F$ at most countable ($n\geq 2$). We give conditions of $F$ and $A$, under which there exists a holomorphic immersion (or a proper holomorphic embedding) $\phi:\Bbb C\to\Bbb C^n$ with $A\subset\phi(\Bbb C)\subset\Bbb C^n\setminus F$.

TLR Agonist Nano Immune Therapy Clears Peritoneal and Systemic Ovarian Cancer

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.
Intraperitoneal administration of immunogenic Toll‐like receptor agonist‐modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles leads to rapid internalization by ascites myeloid cells with trafficking to fat‐associated lymphoid clusters. Activation of myeloid cells counters suppressive immune mechanisms associated with peritoneal metastasis, leading to regional and ...
