Profiling Localized Immunomodulation and Drug Biodistribution within a Subcutaneous Vascularized Niche for Cell Transplantation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We studied how five common immunosuppressants behave when delivered directly to a transplant site instead of systemically. Using a vascularized implant for islet transplantation, we show that local delivery protects grafts, limits drug spread to the rest of the body, and produces distinct immune signatures.

Modes of the initiation of T cell-mediated immune responses

Medical Review
T cell-mediated immune response is the center of adaptive immunity. Despite more than five decades of research, the knowledge of mechanisms drives the initiation of T cell-mediated immune response is still limited due to the complexity of T cell-mediated

Helminth-induced Th2 cell dysfunction is distinct from exhaustion and is maintained in the absence of antigen.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
T cell-intrinsic regulation, such as anergy, adaptive tolerance and exhaustion, is central to immune regulation. In contrast to Type 1 and Type 17 settings, knowledge of the intrinsic fate and function of Th2 cells in chronic Type 2 immune responses is ...

Generation of CCR4/CD7 Bispecific CAR‐T Cells Resistant to Fratricide and Exhaustion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The applications of CAR T‐cell therapy in T‐cell malignancies face limitations such as fratricide, effector‐cell exhaustion, and antigen‐escape. Herein, we developed fratricide‐ and exhaustion‐resistant CAR‐T cells that targeted CCR4 and CD7 simultaneously, with optional EGFRt safety switch. Additionally, scRNA‐seq unveiled new molecular targets, which

Selective Targeting of Immune Checkpoints HLA‐G and CD47 Using Novel Dual Signaling Protein DSP216 Promotes Innate Anticancer Immunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The inhibitory immune checkpoints HLA‐G and CD47 are expressed on certain tumor types and inhibit immune cells in the tumor microenvironment. DSP216 binds specifically to cancer cells expressing both HLA‐G and CD47, and blocks their inhibitory signaling.

A Real-World Study of Tofacitinib in Indian Patients with Refractory Moderate-to-Severe Atopic Dermatitis, its Economic Considerations and Immunological Rationale

Indian Dermatology Online Journal
Background: The response of atopic dermatitis (AD) to different biologics and JAK inhibitors (JAKibs) is variable due to the varied immunological endotypes of AD.

The Primary Responses of Murine Neonatal Lymph Node CD4+ Cells are Th2-skewed and are Sufficient for the Development of Th2-biased Memory

Clinical and Developmental Immunology, 2003
Exposure of neonatal mice to antigen often results in Th2-biased responses in later life. Examples of this Th2 tendency are (a) secondary antibody responses dominated by the Th2-associated IgG1 isotype and (b) Th2-mediated tolerance to alloantigens.

Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles in Potentiating Cancer Vaccines: Progress and Prospects

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) have emerged as versatile platforms for cancer vaccine development owing to their intrinsic immunostimulatory properties and high engineering flexibility. This review summarizes OMV biology, immune mechanisms, and engineering strategies that enhance vaccine efficacy, discusses key translational challenges, and ...

NKG2A inhibits TH2 cell effector function in vitro

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2007
Background We previously reported that NKG2A, a key inhibitory ligand for HLA-E, is expressed on activated TH2 but not TH1 cells. Here we measured cytokine expression in human ex vivo TH2 cells upon activation with anti-CD3/28 and challenge with an NKG2A-
