Dual angiopoietin-2 and VEGFA inhibition elicits antitumor immunity that is enhanced by PD-1 checkpoint blockade

Michele De Palma, Céline Wyser Rmili, Ece Kadioglu, Nicolo Rigamonti, Damya Laoui, Antonino Cassarà

Pathological angiogenesis is a hallmark of cancer and a therapeutic target. Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) and angiopoietin-2 (ANGPT2; also known as ANG2) are proangiogenic cytokines that sustain tumor angiogenesis and limit antitumor immunit ...

MicroRNA Profile in CD8+T-Lymphocytes from HIV-Infected Individuals: Relationship with Antiviral Immune Response and Disease Progression

Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert

Background The relationship between host microRNAs (miRNA), viral control and immune response has not yet been elucidated in the field of HIV. The aim of this study was to assess the differential miRNA profile in CD8+ T-cells between HIV-infected individua ...

Guidance molecule SEMA3A restricts tumor growth by differentially regulating the proliferation of tumor-associated macrophages

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Margarita Bartish, Tatjana Wallmann

Accumulation of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) correlates with malignant progression, immune suppression and poor prognosis. In this study, we defined a critical role for the cell-surface guidance molecule SEMA3A in differential proliferative control o ...

Modes of antigen presentation by lymph node stromal cells and their immunological implications

Sachiko Hirosue

Antigen presentation is no longer the exclusive domain of cells of hematopoietic origin. Recent works have demonstrated that lymph node stromal cell (LNSC) populations, such as fibroblastic reticular cells, lymphatic and blood endothelial cells, not only p ...

TLR-3 stimulation improves anti-tumor immunity elicited by dendritic cell exosome-based vaccines in a murine model of melanoma

Eleonora Simeoni, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, David Scott Wilson, Martina Damo

Dendritic cell (DC)-derived exosomes (Dexo) contain the machinery necessary to activate potent antigen-specific immune responses. As promising cell-free immunogens, Dexo have been tested in previous clinical trials for cancer vaccine immunotherapy, yet res ...

Targeting the tumor-draining lymph node with adjuvanted nanoparticles reshapes the anti-tumor immune response

Efthymia Vokali, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Amanda Waite Lund, Susan Thomas

Accumulating evidence implicates the tumor-draining lymph node (TDLN) in tumor-induced immune escape, as it drains regulatory molecules and leukocytes from the tumor microenvironment. We asked whether targeted delivery of adjuvant to the TDLN, presumably a ...

Tunable T cell immunity towards a protein antigen using polymersomes vs. solid-core nanoparticles

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Armando Stano, Karen Dane

Using poly(propylene sulfide) (PPS) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) as components of a nanocarrier platform, we sought to compare immune responses induced by PPS-bl-PEG polymersomes (PSs; watery-core structures, with antigen incorporated within the PSs) an ...

Therapeutic Immunomodulation of the Lymphoid-like Tumor Environment Using Nanoparticulate Formulations

Iraklis Kourtis

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 ...

Improving Immunogenicity of Subunit Vaccines Using Nanocarrier Systems

Armando Stano

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 ...

Exhaustion of tumor-specific CD8(+) T cells in metastases from melanoma patients

Bart Deplancke, Pedro Romero, Sunil Kumar Raghav, Nathalie Rufer, Lukas Baitsch

In chronic viral infections, CD8(+) T cells become functionally deficient and display multiple molecular alterations. In contrast, only little is known of self- and tumor-specific CD8(+) T cells from mice and humans. Here we determined molecular profiles o ...
