HLA Heterozygote Advantage against HIV-1 Is Driven by Quantitative and Qualitative Differences in HLA Allele-Specific Peptide Presentation

Pathogen-mediated balancing selection is regarded as a key driver of host immunogenetic diversity. A hallmark for balancing selection in humans is the heterozygote advantage at genes of the human leukocyte antigen (HLA), resulting in improved HIV-1 control ...

Functional de novo Protein Design for Targeted Vaccines and Synthetic Biology Applications

Che Yang

Evolution has created, selected and evolved large repertoires of proteins that operate in various biological systems. Nowadays biotechnological needs are coming up orders of magnitude faster than proteins naturally evolve. The emergence of de novo protein ...

Epitope Mapping and Fine Specificity of Human T and B Cell Responses for Novel Candidate Blood-Stage Malaria Vaccine P27A

Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Che Yang, Daniel Guignard

P27A is a novel synthetic malaria vaccine candidate derived from the blood stage Plasmodium falciparum protein Trophozoite Exported Protein 1 (TEX1/PFF0165c). In phase 1a/1b clinical trials in malaria unexposed adults in Switzerland and in malaria pre-expo ...

Integrated proteogenomic deep sequencing and analytics accurately identify non-canonical peptides in tumor immunopeptidomes

Didier Trono, George Coukos, Marion Leleu, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert, Markus Müller, Florian Huber, Laia Simo Riudalbas, Delphine Yvette L Grun, Ioannis Xenarios, Lin Zhang, Alexandre Harari, Marion Arnaud

Efforts to precisely identify tumor human leukocyte antigen (HLA) bound peptides capable of mediating T cell-based tumor rejection still face important challenges. Recent studies suggest that non-canonical tumor-specific HLA peptides derived from annotated ...

MarrowQuantAcross Aging and Aplasia: A Digital Pathology Workflow for Quantification of Bone Marrow Compartments in Histological Sections

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Olivier Burri, Rita Sarkis, Nicolas Kunz, Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal, Frédérica Schyrr, Chiheb Boussema, Daniel Naveed Tavakol, Shanti Rojas-Sutterlin

The bone marrow (BM) exists heterogeneously as hematopoietic/red or adipocytic/yellow marrow depending on skeletal location, age, and physiological condition. Mouse models and patients undergoing radio/chemotherapy or suffering acute BM failure endure rapi ...

Expanding beyond the natural protein repertoire to engineer targeted vaccines and diagnostics

Fabian Sesterhenn

Proteins have evolved over millions of years to carry out the vast majority of biological functions that are fundamental to life. Their three-dimensional structures and functions have been in the focus of biomedical research for many decades, and substanti ...

Synthetically glycosylated antigens induce antigen-specific tolerance and prevent the onset of diabetes

Xavier Fredy René Quaglia-Thermes, Giacomo Olimpio Diaceri, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Sachiko Hirosue, David Scott Wilson, Martina Damo, Michal Mateusz Raczy

Homeostatic antigen presentation by hepatic antigen-presenting cells, which results in tolerogenic T-cell education, could be exploited to induce antigen-specific immunological tolerance. Here we show that antigens modified with polymeric forms of either N ...

Lymphoma Chemotherapy: Hungry Macrophages Strike the Final Blow

Michele De Palma

Macrophages modulate tumor response to chemotherapy; in this issue, Lossos and colleagues show that high-dose alkylating agents instigate a synthetic lethal program in lymphoma cells that is independent of DNA damage and involves recruitment and priming of ...

Antigens reversibly conjugated to a polymeric glyco-adjuvant induce protective humoral and cellular immunity

Xavier Fredy René Quaglia-Thermes, Giacomo Olimpio Diaceri, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Sachiko Hirosue, Laura Jeanbart, David Scott Wilson, Maria Anna Sofia Broggi, Michal Mateusz Raczy, Ruyi Wang

Fully effective vaccines for complex infections must elicit a diverse repertoire of antibodies (humoral immunity) and CD8+ T-cell responses (cellular immunity). Here, we present a synthetic glyco-adjuvant named p(Man-TLR7), which, when conjugated to antige ...

Tumor-targeted 4-1BB agonists for combination with T cell bispecific antibodies as off-the-shelf therapy

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Thomas Hofer, Wei Xu

Endogenous costimulatory molecules on T cells such as 4-1BB (CD137) can be leveraged for cancer immunotherapy. Systemic administration of agonistic anti-4-1BB antibodies, although effective preclinically, has not advanced to phase 3 trials because they hav ...
