Regulatory T cells engineered with TCR signaling-responsive IL-2 nanogels suppress alloimmunity in sites of antigen encounter

Adoptive cell transfer of ex vivo expanded regulatory T cells (T-r(egs)) has shown immense potential in animal models of auto- and alloimmunity. However, the effective translation of such T-reg therapies to the clinic has been slow. Because T-reg homeostas ...

Cyclic peptide FXII inhibitor provides safe anticoagulation in a thrombosis model and in artificial lungs

Christian Heinis, Xudong Kong, Jonas Alfred Karl Wilbs, Patrick Andreas Gonschorek, Simon Jan Middendorp, Christina Lamers

Inhibiting thrombosis without generating bleeding risks is a major challenge in medicine. A promising solution may be the inhibition of coagulation factor XII (FXII), because its knock-out or inhibition in animals reduced thrombosis without causing abnorma ...

From Patients to Platelets and Back Again: Pharmacological Approaches to Glycoprotein VI, a Thrilling Antithrombotic Target with Minor Bleeding Risks

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Augusto Martins Lima

Despite significant advances in the treatment of thrombogenic diseases, antiplatelet therapies are still associated with a high bleeding risk. Consequently, potential benefits of preventing thromboembolic events by pharmacological agents need to be balance ...

Development of cyclic peptide inhibitors of coagulation factor XII and matrix metalloproteinase 2

Jonas Alfred Karl Wilbs

Peptides represent a promising molecular class for drug development. They combine several strengths of small molecules (e.g. efficient tissue diffusion, low immunogenicity and access to chemical synthesis) and key properties of biologics such as monoclonal ...

Fibroblastic niches prime T cell alloimmunity through Delta-like Notch ligands

Freddy Radtke, Ute Koch

Alloimmune T cell responses induce graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a serious complication of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT). Although Notch signaling mediated by Delta-like 1/4 (DLL1/4) Notch ligands has emerged as a major regulator of ...

The Molecular Mechanism of P2Y 1 Receptor Activation

Horst Vogel, Shuguang Yuan

Human purinergic Gprotein-coupled receptor P2Y(1) (P2Y(1)R) is activated by adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) to induce platelet activation and thereby serves as an important antithrombotic drug target. Crystal structures of P2Y(1)R revealed that one ligand ( ...

Determination of a shear rate threshold for thrombus formation in intracranial aneurysms

Orestis Pileas Malaspinas, Ricardo Alberto Corredor Jerez, Bastien Chopard

Particular intra-aneurysmal blood flow conditions, created naturally by the growth of an aneurysm or induced artificially by implantation of a flow diverter stent (FDS), can potentiate intra-aneurysmal thrombosis. The aim of this study was to identify hemo ...
