Social Functioning Within the First Years After Pediatric Brain Tumor Diagnosis and the Relationship With Family Psychosocial Risk

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Survivors of pediatric brain tumors (PBTs) can experience long‐term social difficulties, impacting quality of life. Beyond medical and environmental factors, family psychosocial risk may play a role in social outcomes by shaping the caregiving environment and may provide intervention options.

Impact of curative radiotherapy on the immune status of patients with localized prostate cancer

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2018
Combination of radiotherapy with immunotherapy has become an attractive concept for the treatment of cancer. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of curative, normofractionated radiotherapy on peripheral immune lymphocytes in prostate ...

Clonal replacement of tumor-specific T cells following PD-1 blockade

open access: yesNature Medicine, 2019
Immunotherapies that block inhibitory checkpoint receptors on T cells have transformed the clinical care of patients with cancer1. However, whether the T cell response to checkpoint blockade relies on reinvigoration of pre-existing tumor-infiltrating ...

Compromised function of regulatory T cells in rheumatoid arthritis and reversal by anti-TNF alpha therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Regulatory T cells have been clearly implicated in the control of disease in murine models of autoimmunity. The paucity of data regarding the role of these lymphocytes in human autoimmune disease has prompted us to examine their function in patients with

Retrospective Analysis of Donor Lymphocyte Infusions in Pediatric Patients With Mixed Chimerism After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...

Dendritic cells and memory CD45RO⁺ T cells as an optimization strategy for CAR-T cell therapy: A novel approach and challenges

open access: yesAnnales Academiae Medicae Silesiensis
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy stands as an innovative treatment indicated for specific relapsed, refractory hematological malignancies and, increasingly, for solid tumors. Despite major therapy results in highlighted patient populations,

Preclinical efficacy of immune-checkpoint monotherapy does not recapitulate corresponding biomarkers-based clinical predictions in glioblastoma

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2017
Glioblastoma (GBM) is resistant to most multimodal therapies. Clinical success of immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has spurred interest in applying ICIs targeting CTLA4, PD1 or IDO1 against GBM.

Broad and strong memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells induced by SARS-CoV-2 in UK convalescent individuals following COVID-19

open access: yesNature Immunology, 2020
The development of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines and therapeutics will depend on understanding viral immunity. We studied T cell memory in 42 patients following recovery from COVID-19 (28 with mild disease and 14 ...

Swift development of protective effector functions in naive CD8(+) T cells against malaria liver stages. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We generated T cell receptor transgenic mice specific for the liver stages of the rodent malaria parasite Plasmodium yoelii and studied the early events in the development of in vivo effector functions in antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells.
