Distinct profiles of osteoclast and dendritic cell-mediated expansion and functional activation of NK and T cells

open access: yesCancer Immunology, Immunotherapy
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

open access: yesObesity Facts, 2023
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.

T-cell activation

open access: yesTrends in Cell Biology, 1992
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

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2019
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]

open access: yes, 2012
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]

open access: yes, 2016
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

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2018
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

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2020
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
