A First-in-Human Randomized Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Neutralization Profile of Two Investigational Long-Acting Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Monoclonal Antibodies

Introduction: COVID-19 remains a significant risk for the immunocompromised given their lower responsiveness to vaccination or infection. Therefore, passive immunity through long-acting monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) offers a needed approach for pre-exposure ...

Regulatory T cells engineered with TCR signaling-responsive IL-2 nanogels suppress alloimmunity in sites of antigen encounter

Li Tang, Na Li

Adoptive cell transfer of ex vivo expanded regulatory T cells (T-r(egs)) has shown immense potential in animal models of auto- and alloimmunity. However, the effective translation of such T-reg therapies to the clinic has been slow. Because T-reg homeostas ...

Involvement of the M-CSF/IL-34/CSF-1R pathway in malignant pleural mesothelioma

Background Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and aggressive cancer related to asbestos exposure. The tumor microenvironment content, particularly the presence of macrophages, was described as crucial for the development of the disease. This wo ...

Endothelial Calcineurin Signaling Restrains Metastatic Outgrowth by Regulating Bmp2

Nadine Fournier, Mauro Delorenzi, Sina Nassiri, Borja Prat Luri, Laureline Wetterwald

Calcineurin/NFAT signaling is active in endothelial cells and is proposed to be an essential component of the tumor angiogenic response. Here, we investigated the role of endothelial calcineurin signaling in vivo in physiological and pathological angiogene ...

HIV-1 Vpu is a potent transcriptional suppressor of NF-κB-elicited antiviral immune responses

Jacques Fellay, Christian Hammer, Daniel Sauter

Many viral pathogens target innate sensing cascades and/or cellular transcription factors to suppress antiviral immune responses. Here, we show that the accessory viral protein U (Vpu) of HIV-1 exerts broad immunosuppressive effects by inhibiting activatio ...

Targeting small molecule drugs to T cells with antibody-directed cell-penetrating gold nanoparticles

Francesco Stellacci, Ye Yang, Ahmet Bekdemir

We sought to develop a nanoparticle vehicle that could efficiently deliver small molecule drugs to target lymphocyte populations. The synthesized amphiphilic organic ligand-protected gold nanoparticles (amph-NPs) were capable of sequestering large payloads ...

Lymphatic vessel density is associated with CD8(+) T cell infiltration and immunosuppressive factors in human melanoma

Melody Swartz, Manuel Andreas Fankhauser, Natacha Anne-Sophie Bordry, Maria Anna Sofia Broggi, Esther Danenberg, Timothy Murray, Olivier Michielin

Increased density of tumor-associated lymphatic vessels correlates with poor patient survival in melanoma and other cancers, yet lymphatic drainage is essential for initiating an immune response. Here we asked whether and how lymphatic vessel density (LVD) ...

Rapid activation of tumor-associated macrophages boosts preexisting tumor immunity

Michele De Palma, Wei Xu

Depletion of immunosuppressive tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) or reprogramming toward a proinflammatory activation state represent different strategies to therapeutically target this abundant myeloid population. In this study, we report that inhibitio ...

Introducing tolerance to foreign and partly foreign proteins by erythrocyte binding and artificial glycosylations

Kym Lorenz Brünggel

Over the last few years, protein drugs have steadily gained importance in the clinic. Compared to small molecule drugs, protein drugs are taken up by antigen presenting cells, which degrade the proteins into peptides that are then presented on major histoc ...

Development of functionalized alginate-based hydrogels to reduce fibrosis in the transplantation of microencapsulated cells

François Rémi Pierre Noverraz

Nowadays, the development of cell therapy relies mainly on the advances made toward cell microencapsulation which allows to evade the need for immunosuppression during cell transplantation. Among the materials considered for cell encapsulation, hydrogels d ...
