Characterization of the gut-bone marrow axis through bile acid signaling

Communication between the intestine and other organs such as the lungs, brain or bones is mediated by several metabolites, like short-chain fatty acids or bile acids, that relay information about nutritional and microbiota status. Bile acids are endogenous ...

Postnatal expansion of mesenteric lymph node stromal cells towards reticular and CD34(+) stromal cell subsets

Bart Deplancke, Vincent Roland Julien Gardeux, Julie Marie Russeil, Jörn Pezoldt, Guido Van Mierlo, Maria Litovchenko, Wanze Chen, Marjan Biocanin

Gut-draining mesenteric lymph nodes (LN) provide the framework to shape intestinal adaptive immune responses. Based on the transcriptional signatures established by our previous work, the composition and immunomodulatory function of LN stromal cells (SC) v ...

Niche-Mediated Integrin Signaling Supports Steady-State Hematopoiesis in the Spleen

Outside-in integrin signaling regulates cell fate decisions in a variety of cell types, including hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Our earlier published studies showed that interruption of periostin (POSTN) and integrin-av (ITGAV) interaction induces faste ...

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 ...

Specific fibroblastic niches in secondary lymphoid organs orchestrate distinct Notch-regulated immune responses

Freddy Radtke, Ute Koch, Nicolas Fasnacht, Floriane Auderset

Fibroblast-like cells of secondary lymphoid organs (SLO) are important for tissue architecture. In addition, they regulate lymphocyte compartmentalization through the secretion of chemokines, and participate in the orchestration of appropriate cell-cell in ...

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 ...

PPS nanoparticles as versatile delivery system to induce systemic and broad mucosal immunity after intranasal administration

Eleonora Simeoni, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Mikaël Martino, Armando Stano

Degradable polymer nanoparticles (NPs, 50nm) based on polypropylene sulfide (PPS) were conjugated to thiolated antigen and adjuvant proteins by reversible disulfide bonds and evaluated in mucosal vaccination. Ovalbumin was used as a model antigen, and anti ...

Induction of lymphoidlike stroma and immune escape by tumors that express the chemokine CCL21

Melody Swartz, Alice Anna Tomei, Iraklis Kourtis

Tumor manipulation of host immunity is important for tumor survival and invasion. Many cancers secrete CCL21, a chemoattractant for various leukocytes and lymphoid tissue inducer cells, which drive lymphoid neogenesis. CCL21 expression by melanoma tumors i ...

Tissue engineering complex and mechanically active microenvironments for studies in asthma and cancer

Alice Anna Tomei

The goals of tissue engineering include recapitulating specific tissue functions for regenerative medicine and developing in vitro models of human tissues to study human physiology and pathophysiology and for testing and screening drugs before expensive cl ...

Secondary lymphedema in the mouse tail: Lymphatic hyperplasia, VEGF-C upregulation, and the protective role of MMP-9

Melody Swartz, Joseph Rutkowski

Disturbances in the microcirculation can lead to secondary lymphedema, a common pathological condition that, despite its frequency, still lacks a cure. Lymphedema is clinically well described, but while the genetic underpinnings that cause lymphatic malfor ...
