Tumor-derived microvesicles modulate antigen cross-processing via reactive oxygen species-mediated alkalinization of phagosomal compartment in dendritic cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Dendritic cells (DCs) are the only antigen-presenting cells able to prime naïve T cells and cross-prime antigen-specific CD8+ T cells. Their functionality is a requirement for the induction and maintenance of long-lasting cancer immunity.

KLF4-mediated upregulation of the NKG2D ligand MICA in acute myeloid leukemia: a novel therapeutic target identified by enChIP

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2023
The immunoreceptor NKG2D, which is expressed on NK cells and T cell subsets is critically involved in tumor immune surveillance. This applies in particular to acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which evades immune detection by downregulation of NKG2D ligands (

Neoadjuvant immune checkpoint blockade triggers persistent and systemic Treg activation which blunts therapeutic efficacy against metastatic spread of breast tumors

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2023
The clinical successes of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) in advanced cancer patients have recently spurred the clinical implementation of ICB in the neoadjuvant and perioperative setting. However, how neoadjuvant ICB therapy affects the systemic immune

Algorithmic asymptotic analysis: extending the arsenal of cancer immunology modeling [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology Volume 534, 7 February 2022, 110975, 2021
The recent advances in cancer immunotherapy boosted the development of tumor-immune system models aiming to provide mechanistic understanding and indicate more efficient treatment regimes. However, the complexity of such models, their multi-scale dynamics and their overparameterized character renders them inaccessible for wide utilization. In this work,

MicroRNA analysis of Natural Killer cell-derived exosomes: the microRNA let-7b-5p is enriched in exosomes and participates in their anti-tumor effects against pancreatic cancer cells

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2023
Natural Killer (NK) cells are important components of the immune system in the defense against tumor growth and metastasis. They release exosomes containing proteins and nucleic acids, including microRNAs (miRNAs).

Membrane and Soluble CD137 in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Role as Biomarkers for Disease Activity

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2023
Objective. The role of T cells in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has recently gained attention. Costimulatory molecules are membrane proteins strictly associated with T-cell receptor (TCR), acting by activating or inhibiting T ...
