Investigating the effect of inflammation on the progression of B-cell lymphoma dissemination in the sentinel lymph node

Lymphomas are a group of heterogeneous blood cancers that arise from lymphocytes. The two primary clinical classifications of lymphomas are Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL), and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). In particular, B-cell lymphoma refers to the malignancies ...

BCG hydrogel promotes CTSS-mediated antigen processing and presentation, thereby suppressing metastasis and prolonging survival in melanoma

Li Tang, Bing Feng, Thomas Gruber

Background The use of intralesional Mycobacterium bovis BCG (intralesional live BCG) for the treatment of metastatic melanoma resulted in regression of directly injected, and occasionally of distal lesions. However, intralesional-BCG is less effective in p ...

A microfluidics platform for combinatorial drug screening on cancer biopsies

Christoph Merten

Screening drugs on patient biopsies from solid tumours has immense potential, but is challenging due to the small amount of available material. To address this, we present here a plug-based microfluidics platform for functional screening of drug combinatio ...

Characterization of a B16-F10 melanoma model locally implanted into the ear pinnae of C57BL/6 mice

Witold Waldemar Kilarski, Esra Güç

The common experimental use of B16-F10 melanoma cells focuses on exploring their metastatic potential following intravenous injection into mice. In this study, B16-F10 cells are used to develop a primary tumor model by implanting them directly into the ear ...

Precision targeting of tumor macrophages with a CD206 binding peptide

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) expressing the multi-ligand endocytic receptor mannose receptor (CD206/MRC1) contribute to tumor immunosuppression, angiogenesis, metastasis, and relapse. Here, we describe a peptide that selectively targets MRC1-express ...

Gray free-energy multiphase lattice Boltzmann model with effective transport and wetting properties

Karen Scrivener, Marco Ramaioli, Mohamad Zalzale

The paper shows that it is possible to combine the free-energy lattice Boltzmann approach to multiphase modeling of fluids involving both liquid and vapor with the partial bounce back lattice Boltzmann approach to modeling effective media. Effective media ...

Aptamer-Functionalized, Ultra-Small, Monodisperse Silica Nanoconjugates for Targeted Dual-Modal Imaging of Lymph Nodes with Metastatic Tumors

Li Tang

A dual-modal imaging probe based on size-controlled silica nanoconjugates was synthesized for targeted imaging of lymph nodes by means of both PET and near infrared fluorescence techniques. 20 nm nanoconjugates (see scheme) functionalized with an aptamer ( ...

Evaluation of Atlas Fusion Strategies for Segmentation of Head and Neck Lymph Nodes for Radiotherapy Planning

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Meritxell Bach Cuadra, Subrahmanyam Venkata Ravi Mohana Sai Gorthi

Accurate segmentation of lymph nodes in head and neck (H&N) CT images is essential for the radiotherapy planning of the H&N cancer. Atlas-based segmentation methods are widely used for the automated segmentation of such structures. Multi-atlas approaches a ...

Endoscopic Fluorescence Imaging

Blaise Lovisa

Since several decades, the physicians are able to access hollow organs with endoscopic methods, which serve both as diagnostic and surgical means in a wide range of disciplines of the modern medicine (e.g. urology, pneumology, gastroenterology). Unfortunat ...

Fluid flow regulates stromal cell organization and CCL21 expression in a tissue-engineered lymph node microenvironment

Melody Swartz, Alice Anna Tomei

In the paracortex of the lymph node (LN), T zone fibroblastic reticular cells (TRCs) orchestrate an immune response by guiding lymphocyte migration both physically, by creating three-dimensional (3D) cell networks, and chemically, by secreting the chemokin ...
