Development of cysteine cathepsin inhibitors combined with cell type-specific delivery for the treatment of B-cell lymphoma and solid tumors

Cysteine cathepsins proteases are enzymes that play essential physiological roles, but their activity is also associated to different aspects of cancer progression and to the development of other diseases. Therefore, cysteine cathepsins are relevant and pr ...

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

Daniel Molina Romero

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 ...

KRAB zinc finger proteins link heterochromatin maintenance to replicative stress and inflammation in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

Filipe Amândio Brandão Sanches Vong Martins

Genomic instability enhances cancer progression by favoring clonal diversity, yet uncontrolled replicative stress can lead to mitotic catastrophe and inflammatory responses promoting immune rejection. KRAB-containing zinc finger proteins (KZFPs) are epigen ...

Rational Design of Chemically Controlled Antibodies and Protein Therapeutics

Li Tang, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Sandrine Madeleine Suzanne Georgeon, Anthony Marchand, Leo Scheller, Lucia Bonati, Pablo Gainza Cirauqui, Stéphane Rosset, Sailan Shui

Protein-based therapeutics, such as monoclonal antibodies and cytokines, are important therapies for various pathophysiological conditions such as oncology, autoimmune disorders, and viral infections. However, the wide application of such protein therapeut ...

Microfluidic device combining hydrodynamic and dielectrophoretic trapping for the controlled contact between single micro-sized objects and application to adhesion assays

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Clémentine Sophie Sarah Lipp

The understanding of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions via receptor and ligand binding relies on our ability to study the very first events of their contact. Of particular interest is the interaction between a T cell receptor and its cognate peptide-m ...

Dendrimer-Based Coatings on a Photonic Crystal Surface for Ultra-Sensitive Small Molecule Detection

Serguei Sekatski

We propose and demonstrate dendrimer-based coatings for a sensitive biochip surface that enhance the high-performance sorption of small molecules (i.e., biomolecules with low molecular weights) and the sensitivity of a label-free, real-time photonic crysta ...

Real-time monitoring of single-cell secretion with a high-throughput nanoplasmonic microarray

Hatice Altug, Xiaokang Li, Yen-Cheng Liu, Saeid Ansaryan, Eduardo Romero Arvelo

Proteins secreted by cells play significant roles in mediating many physiological, developmental, and pathological processes due to their functions in intra/intercellular communication and signaling. Conventional end-point methods are insufficient for unde ...

PD-1-cis IL-2R agonism yields better effectors from stem-like CD8(+) T cells

Douglas Hanahan, Mélanie Louise Tichet, Stephan Wullschleger, Petra Catalina Schwalie, Maria Karagianni

Expansion and differentiation of antigen-experienced PD-1(+)TCF-1(+) stem-like CD8(+) T cells into effector cells is critical for the success of immunotherapies based on PD-1 blockade(1-4). Hashimoto et al. have shown that, in chronic infections, administr ...
