Cell-autonomous inflammation of BRCA1-deficient ovarian cancers drives both tumor-intrinsic immunoreactivity and immune resistance via STING

Julien Dorier, George Coukos, Christian Iseli, Mauro Delorenzi, Alizée Jéléna Grimm, Giovanni Ciriello, Alexandre Harari, Marco Mina

In this study, we investigate mechanisms leading to inflammation and immunoreactivity in ovarian tumors with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). BRCA1 loss is found to lead to transcriptional reprogramming in tumor cells and cell-intrinsic inflammat ...

Fibronectin EDA and CpG synergize to enhance antigen-specific Th1 and cytotoxic responses

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Eleonora Simeoni, Melody Swartz, Alexandre de Titta, Alizée Jéléna Grimm, Ziad Julier

Subunit vaccines, employing purified protein antigens rather than intact pathogens, require the addition of adjuvants for enhanced immunogenicity with a correct balance between strong activation of the immune system and low toxicity. Here we show that the ...

Mechanisms of tolerance induction by erythrocyte-targeted antigens

Alizée Jéléna Grimm

Immune-mediated disorders such as autoimmune diseases, graft-versus-host disease or allergies, are a major contemporary burden. Despite significant advances in the field of immunological tolerance, immunosuppressive drugs are still the current hallmark for ...

Memory of tolerance and induction of regulatory T cells by erythrocyte-targeted antigens

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Xavier Fredy René Quaglia-Thermes, Giacomo Olimpio Diaceri, Stephane Kontos, Alizée Jéléna Grimm

New approaches based on induction of antigen-specific immunological tolerance are being explored for treatment of autoimmunity and prevention of immunity to protein drugs. Antigens associated with apoptotic debris are known to be processed tolerogenically ...

Engineering antigen-specific immunological tolerance

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Stephane Kontos, Alizée Jéléna Grimm

Unwanted immunity develops in response to many protein drugs, in autoimmunity, in allergy, and in transplantation. Approaches to induce immunological tolerance aim to either prevent these responses or reverse them after they have already taken place. We pr ...
