Hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy to control malignant pleural mesothelioma

OBJECTIVE: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare disease that has a poor response to conventional therapy. Hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITOC), a treatment combining fever-range hyperthermia with intrapleural cisplatin chemotherapy, ha ...

Combining fluorescence-based image segmentation and automated microfluidics for ultrafast cell-by-cell assessment of biomarkers for HER2-type breast carcinoma

Martinus Gijs, Daniel Migliozzi, Huu Tuan Nguyen

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) is one of the main clinical techniques for biomarker assessment on tissue biopsies. It consists in chromogenic labeling with specific antibodies, followed by optical imaging, and it is used for diagnosis and therapeutic targeting ...

Evaluation of oxidation-sensitive polymersomes as vaccine nanocarriers to enhance humoral responses against arenavirus envelope glycoproteins

Clara Galan Navarro

Vaccines currently represent one of the most effective means to control and prevent infectious diseases affecting humans and animals and have dramatically improved public health, quality of life, and life expectancy. Over the last years several conceptual ...

Protein engineering approaches for direct antigen targeting in CD8+ T cell inducing vaccines

Vasiliki Panagiotou

Effective vaccine design and public vaccination programs have led to the eradication of several diseases and protected millions of people from deadly infections. However, intracellular infections remain a challenge and their eradication requires the activa ...

Functional single-cell hybridoma screening using droplet-based microfluidics

Christoph Merten

Monoclonal antibodies can specifically bind or even inhibit drug targets and have hence become the fastest growing class of human therapeutics. Although they can be screened for binding affinities at very high throughput using systems such as phage display ...

KAP1 regulates gene networks controlling mouse B-lymphoid cell differentiation and function

Didier Trono, Isabelle Barde, Nicola Harris, Sandra Eloise Kjeldsen, Adamantia Kapopoulou, Andrea Corsinotti, Karolina Bojkowska

Chromatin remodeling is fundamental for B-cell differentiation. In the present study, we explored the role of KAP1, the cofactor of KRAB-ZFP transcriptional repressors, in this process. B-lymphoid-specific Kap1-KO mice displayed reduced numbers of mature B ...

Highly controlled electrofusion of individually selected cells in dielectrophoretic field cages

Claus Duschl

The prospect of novel therapeutic approaches has renewed the current interest in the fusion of rare cells, like stem cells or primary immune cells. While conventional techniques are only capable of mass fusion, lab-on-a-chip systems often still lack an acc ...

Selective Breast Cancer Cell Capture, Culture, and Immunocytochemical Analysis Using Self-Assembled Magnetic Bead Patterns in a Microfluidic Chip

Martinus Gijs, Jean-Claude Bünzli, Caroline Vandevyver, Venkataragavalu Sivagnanam, Bo Song

Separation and subsequent culturing of MCF-7 breast cancer cells on self-assembled protein-coated magnetic beads in a microfluidic chip is demonstrated. The beads were patterned in situ inside a sealed microfluidic channel using magnetic-field-assisted ele ...

Antigen delivery to dendritic cells by poly(propylene sulfide) nanoparticles with disulfide conjugated peptides: Cross-presentation and T cell activation

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Sachiko Hirosue, Iraklis Kourtis

Vaccines aiming to activate cytotoxic T cells require cross-presentation of exogenous antigen by antigen-presenting cells (APCs). We recently developed a synthetic nanoparticle vaccine platform that targets lymph node-resident dendritic cells (DCs), capabl ...

Full on-chip nanoliter immuno-assay by geometrical magnetic trapping of nanoparticle chains

Martinus Gijs, Caroline Vandevyver, Frédéric Lacharme

We propose an original concept to perform a complete on-chip sandwich immunoassay on magnetic nanoparticles that are self-assembled in chains in a uniform magnetic field. The magnetic chains are retained over periodically enlarged cross sections of a micro ...
