Osteoclasts (OCs) and dendritic cells (DCs) induce expansion and functional activation of NK and T cells. When comparing OCs with DC-induced activation in NK cells, OCs induced significantly higher cell expansion and functional activation of NK cells as ...

The Impact of Obesity on T and NK Cells after LVAD Implantation
Introduction: Infections are a major problem after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation that affects morbidity, mortality, and the quality of life. Obesity often increases the risk for infection.

Chemotherapy accelerates immune-senescence and functional impairments of Vδ2pos T cells in elderly patients affected by liver metastatic colorectal cancer. [PDF]
Human (gamma delta) γδ T cells are unconventional innate-like lymphocytes displaying a broad array of anti-tumor activities with promising perspectives in cancer immunotherapy.

Activation of T lymphocytes results in immediate intracellular biochemical changes, including increases in cytosolic Ca(2+) levels, stimulation of protein kinase C (PKC) and regulation of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs). This review describes recent advances in the study of the signalling steps downstream of PKC and PTKs in T cells.

TEIPP peptides: exploration of unTAPped cancer antigens
The intracellular peptide pump TAP feeds antigenic peptides for loading onto HLA class I molecules, and its down-modulation is a frequent immune evasion mechanism in human cancers.

Generalized Lévy walks and the role of chemokines in migration of effector CD8+ T cells. [PDF]
Chemokines have a central role in regulating processes essential to the immune function of T cells, such as their migration within lymphoid tissues and targeting of pathogens in sites of inflammation.

Role of Dicer Enzyme in the Regulation of Store Operated Calcium Entry (SOCE) in CD4+ T Cells [PDF]
Background/Aims: Activation of T cell receptors (TCRs) in CD4+ T cells leads to a cascade of signalling reactions including increase of intracellular calcium (Ca2+) levels with subsequent Ca2+ dependent stimulation of gene expression, proliferation, cell

Expansion of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) from bladder cancer
Advanced bladder cancer patients have limited therapeutic options resulting in a median overall survival (OS) between 12 and 15 months. Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) using tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) has been used successfully in treating patients

Anti-tumor immunity influences cancer cell reliance upon ATG7
Macroautophagy (autophagy) is an essential cellular catabolic process required for survival under conditions of starvation. The role of autophagy in cancer is complex, context-dependent and at times contradictory, as it has been shown to inhibit, promote
