Tumor microenvironment contributes strongly to tumor evolution toward metastasis, a final stage in cancer progression. It provides essential clues to promote migration of cancer cells in metastatic sites. Moreover, inflammatory cells and immunomodulatory m ...
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. Understanding the underlying mechanisms that lead to tumor escape and evasion is pivotal for the design of new therapeutic applications. This thesis takes an immunobioengineering approach, and navigates through ...
Angiopoietin 2 (ANGPT2) is a proangiogenic cytokine whose expression is often upregulated by endothelial cells in tumors. Expression of its receptor, TIE2, defines a highly proangiogenic subpopulation of myeloid cells in circulation and tumors called TIE2- ...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major cause of cancer mortality. Whereas some patients respond well to therapy, others do not, and thus more precise, individualized treatment strategies are needed. To that end, we analyzed gene expression profiles from 1,290 ...
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 ...
Lymphocytes are a key component of the immune system and their differentiation and function are directly influenced by cancer. We examined peripheral blood lymphocyte (PBL) gene expression as a biomarker of illness and treatment effect using the Affymetrix ...
Chronically activated leukocytes recruited to premalignant tissues functionally contribute to cancer development; however, mechanisms underlying pro- versus anti-tumor programming of neoplastic tissues by immune cells remain obscure. Using the K14-HPV16 mo ...
There is a growing interest in understanding the complex interactions between bone marrow-derived myeloid-lineage cells and angiogenesis in tumors. Such interest has been revived recently by the observation that tumor-infiltrating myeloid cells convey proa ...
During organ development and remodeling, macrophages support angiogenesis, not only by secreting proangiogenic growth factors and matrix-remodeling proteases, but also by physically interacting with the sprouting vasculature to assist the formation of comp ...
We previously showed that Tie2-expressing monocytes (TEMs) have nonredundant proangiogenic activity in tumors. Here, we compared the gene expression profile of tumor-infiltrating TEMs with that of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), spleen-derived Gr1(+)C ...
