Short‐Chain Fatty Acids Modulate Anti‐ROR1 CAR T‐Cell Function and Exhaustion in an Intestinal Adenocarcinoma‐on‐Chip Model

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Short‐chain fatty acids modulate anti‐ROR1 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T‐cell function in an intestinal adenocarcinoma‐on‐chip model. Butyrate and propionate reduce cytotoxicity, cytokine release, and infiltration by inducing a regulatory T‐cell phenotype and T‐cell exhaustion via histone deacetylase inhibition.

Simulating the Dynamics of T Cell Subsets Throughout the Lifetime [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
It is widely accepted that the immune system undergoes age-related changes correlating with increased disease in the elderly. T cell subsets have been implicated. The aim of this work is firstly to implement and validate a simulation of T regulatory cell (Treg) dynamics throughout the lifetime, based on a model by Baltcheva.

HGF/c‐Met Axis‐Targeted Nanotherapy via GSH‐Responsive Polymer Platforms Suppresses Uveal Melanoma Metastasis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
To suppress uveal melanoma metastasis (UM), the GSH‐responsive polymer named NP@Oxa/Criz has been successfully prepared. NP@Oxa/Criz selectively accumulates in UM tumors, targeting HGF/c‐Met Axis to undermine the stemness and metastasis of UM while triggering immunogenic cell death through DAMPs release to boost anti‐tumor immunity.

Mathematical modeling of type 1 diabetes in the NOD mouse: separating incidence and age of onset [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease of the beta cells of the pancreas. The nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse is a commonly used animal model, with roughly an 80% incidence rate of T1D among females. In 100% of NOD mice, macrophages and T-cells invade the islets in a process called insulitis. It can be several weeks between insulitis and T1D, and

Dendrimer Conjugates with PD‐L1‐Binding Peptides Enhance In Vivo Antitumor Immune Response

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this paper, a novel nanoparticle scaffold composed of dendrimers conjugated with peptide‐based immune checkpoint inhibitors, enhancing drug delivery efficacy is introduced. By conjugating PD‐L1‐binding peptides to dendrimers, multivalent binding effects are harnessed, resulting in enhanced binding affinity, prolonged half‐life, and improved ...

Sepsis is a syndrome with hyperactivity of TH17-like innate immunity and hypoactivity of adaptive immunity [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Currently, there are two major theories for the pathogenesis of sepsis: hyperimmune and hypoimmune. Hyperimmune theory suggests that cytokine storm causes the symptoms of sepsis. On the contrary, hypoimmune theory suggests that immunosuppression causes the manifestations of sepsis.

Engineering CAR‐T Therapeutics for Enhanced Solid Tumor Targeting

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
CART cell therapy has proven effective for blood cancers but struggles with solid tumors due to diverse antigens and complex environments. Recent efforts focus on improving CAR design and validation platforms. Advances in protein engineering, machine learning, and organoid systems aim to enhance CAR‐T therapy against solid tumors.

The role of galectin-1 and galectin-3 in the mechanisms of T-cell immune response dysregulation in colon cancer

Бюллетень сибирской медицины, 2020
The aim of the study was to characterize the features of the subpopulation composition and cytokine-secretory activity of T lymphocytes (Th1, Th17 and Treg) in relation to the concentration of galectin-1 and galectin-3 in the blood of patients with colon

Targeting Decidual CD16+ Immune Cells with Exosome‐Based Glucocorticoid Nanoparticles for Miscarriage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Exosome‐based nanoparticles (GC‐Exo‐CD16Ab) are designed to deliver glucocorticoids (GC) specifically to decidual CD16+ NK cells and macrophages. This targeted delivery effectively suppresses the cytotoxicity of decidual NK cells, inhibits M1 macrophage polarization, and modulates the decidual microenvironment.
