New generation vaccines, which are subunit vaccines, have considerably improved safety profiles, but are often poorly immunogenic, especially when administered through mucosal routes. Also, the diversity of the mechanisms of action of infectious pathogens ...
In the present study, we have assessed the effect of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) agonist fenofibrate on allergen-induced airway inflammation and immune response. C57BL/6 or PPARalpha knock-out (PPARalpha(-/-)) mice were ...
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 ...
The neurotransmitter noradrenaline (NA) plays a pivotal role in immune regulation. Here we used the selective neurotoxin N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-ethyl-2-bromobenzylamine (DSP-4) to investigate the impact of central NA depletion on cytokine production by spleni ...
Microglia are the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS). Microglia undergo rapid activation in response to even minor pathological changes in the CNS. The activation state of microglia and tissue macrophages is characterized by two extr ...
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 ...
Hydrophilic nanocarriers, formed by electrostatic interaction between their oppositely charged components, are recognized as nanomaterials with an enormous potential as vectors in biomedical and pharmaceutical applications. However, comprehensive informati ...
The immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment represents a major hurdle to cancer therapy. We developed a gene transfer strategy into hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to target transgene expression to tumor-infiltrating monocytes/macrophages. Using a combina ...
Dendritic cells (DCs) are crucial antigen-presenting cells that can drastically change the development of an immune response by polarising T helper cells toward a Th1 or a Th2 phenotype. Heligmosomoides polygyrus, a murine model of human helminth, has been ...
Immunoglobulin class switching from IgM to IgG in response to peptides is generally T cell-dependent and vaccination in T cell-deficient individuals is inefficient. We show that a vaccine consisting of a dense array of peptides on liposomes induced peptide ...
