Rationally designed Human Cytomegalovirus gB nanoparticle vaccine with improved immunogenicity

Author summary Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection is the foremost viral cause of congenital birth defects. Attempts to vaccinate against HCMV brought moderate, though not sufficient, reduction in infection. Moreover, phase II clinical trial with gB for ...

Growth control switch by a DNA-damage-inducible toxin–antitoxin system in Caulobacter crescentus

Gerardo Turcatti, Marc Chambon, Julien Bortoli Chapalay

Bacterial toxin-antitoxin systems (TASs) are thought to respond to various stresses, often inducing growth-arrested (persistent) sub-populations of cells whose housekeeping functions are inhibited. Many such TASs induce this effect through the translation- ...

New immunomodulatory roles of lymphatic endothelium and implications for immunotherapy

Efthymia Vokali

The lymphatic system serves a critical role in fluid homeostasis, lipid metabolism and immune surveillance. The growing appreciation of its implication in various diseases challenges the conventional view of lymphatics as a passive transport system. Tradit ...

Cellular magnetic resonance with iron oxide nanoparticles: long-term persistence of SPIO signal in the CNS after transplanted cell death

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Chiara Cianciaruso

Aim: To study the specificity of cellular MRI based on superparamagnetic iron oxide particles (SPIOs), especially within the CNS. Materials & methods: A microglial cell line was engineered for the expression of a suicide gene, the receptor of diphtheria to ...

Precise toxigenic ablation of intermediate cells abolishes the "battery" of the cochlear duct

Friedrich Beermann

The extracellular potential of excitable and nonexcitable cells with respect to ground is ∼0 mV. One of the known exceptions in mammals is the cochlear duct, where the potential is ∼80-100 mV, called the endocochlear potential (EP). The EP serves as the "b ...

Engineering complement activation on polypropylene sulfide vaccine nanoparticles

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Conlin O'Neil, Sai Reddy, Susan Thomas

The complement system is an important regulator of both adaptive and innate immunity, implicating complement as a potential target for immunotherapeutics. We have recently presented lymph node-targeting, complement-activating nanoparticles (NPs) as a vacci ...

CHO expression of a novel human recombinant IgG1 anti-RhD antibody isolated by phage display

Florian Maria Wurm, Martin Vogel

Replacement of the hyperimmune anti-Rhesus (Rh) D immunoglobulin, currently used to prevent haemolytic disease of the newborn, by fully recombinant human anti-RhD antibodies would solve the current logistic problems associated with supply and demand. The c ...

Ablation of islet endocrine cells by targeted expression of hormone-promoter-driven toxigenes

Romain Zufferey

Ontogenic relationships between the different types of endocrine cells in the islets of Langerhans were explored by generating transgenic mouse embryos in which cells transcribing the glucagon, insulin, or pancreatic polypeptide genes were destroyed throug ...

Functional analysis of T lymphocyte subsets in antiviral host defense

Michel Aguet

The role of different T cell subsets in antiviral host defense was investigated by treating thymectomized C57BL/6 and CBA/J mice with monoclonal rat anti-Lyt-2 or anti-L3/T4 IgG 2b antibodies 14 and 10 days before infection. This treatment depleted the res ...

Purification and cytochemical identification of neuronal and non-neuronal cells in chick embryo retina cultures

Pierre Magistretti

Cell suspensions from 8-day chick embryo neural retina give rise to different populations in monolayer culture depending upon the combinations of substrata and media used. If a substratum of low adhesiveness is used, cell reaggregation takes place before a ...
