The goals of tissue engineering include recapitulating specific tissue functions for regenerative medicine and developing in vitro models of human tissues to study human physiology and pathophysiology and for testing and screening drugs before expensive cl ...
There are two main routes for tumor spread and metastasis, the blood vasculature and the lymphatic system. A wide range of human carcinomas, including lung, colon and breast cancer, spread to distant sites via the lymphatic system. Preclinical and clinical ...
Dentritic cells (DC) are the most potent antigen-presenting cells and play a key role in the induction of effective immune responses, suggesting a novel target for anti-tumor immunotherapy. Paclitaxel (PXL) is a widely used chemotherapeutic, initially char ...
The emergence of recombinant DNA technology has shifted research towards developing subunit vaccines, which use protein or peptide antigens instead of live/attenuated pathogens. Recent research has also shown that the best way to get sustained immunity is ...
The incidence of melanoma has significantly increased and a better understanding its pathogenesis and development of new therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. Here we describe a murine model of metastatic cutaneous melanoma using C57BL/6 mice express ...
Tumor metastases occur through both the cardiovascular and lymphatic circulations. However, the majority of nanoparticle biodistribution studies have been focused on the cardiovascular circulation. In this study, we report the formulation of Cy5-labeled po ...
Research in lymphatic biology and cancer immunology may soon intersect as emerging evidence implicates the lymphatics in the progression of chronic inflammation and autoimmunity as well as in tumor metastasis and immune escape. Like the blood vasculature, ...
Polymeric nanoparticles (NPs), prepared via coprecipitation of drugs and polymers, are promising drug delivery vehicles for treating diseases with improved efficacy and reduced toxicity. Here, we report an unprecedented strategy for preparing polylactide-c ...
The aim of the present work was to decipher the cellular basis of the immuno-regulatory role of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-alpha in cutaneous hypersensitivity reactions. After challenge with a contact allergen, we observed augmented ...
By delivering immunomodulatory drugs in vivo directly to lymph nodes draining an injection site, an opportunity exists to increase drug bioavailability to local immune cells. Importantly, particles smaller than 100 nm are efficiently transported through ly ...
