Association of brain amyloidosis with pro-inflammatory gut bacterial taxa and peripheral inflammation markers in cognitively impaired elderly

Tristan Bolmont, Taoufiq Harach

The pathway leading from amyloid-b deposition to cognitive impairment is believed to be a cornerstone of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, what drives amyloid buildup in sporadic nongenetic cases of AD is still unknown. AD brains featu ...

Tumor lymphangiogenesis promotes T cell infiltration and potentiates immunotherapy in melanoma

Melody Swartz, Douglas Hanahan, Olivier Michielin, Krisztian Homicsko, Marcela Rincón-Restrepo, Christopher Claude Giuseppe Tremblay, Amanda Waite Lund, Laura Jeanbart, Lambert Charles François Potin, Manuel Andreas Fankhauser, Sylvie Hauert, Natacha Anne-Sophie Bordry, Maria Anna Sofia Broggi, Elodie Da Costa

In melanoma, vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) expression and consequent lymphangiogenesis correlate with metastasis and poor prognosis. VEGF-C also promotes tumor immunosuppression, suggesting that lymphangiogenesis inhibitors may be clinicall ...

Unpaired extracellular cysteine mutations of CSF3R mediate gain or loss of function

Oliver Hantschel, Tim Kükenshöner

Exclusive of membrane-proximal mutations seen commonly in chronic neutrophilic leukemia (e.g. T618I), functionally defective mutations in the extracellular domain of the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor (CSF3R) have been reported only in seve ...

Treatment with the GPR55 antagonist CID16020046 increases neutrophil activation in mouse atherogenesis

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Endocannabinoids modulate atherogenesis by triggering different receptors. Recently, orphan G protein-coupled receptors (GPRs) were suggested to be activated by endocannabinoids, possibly regulating vasorelaxation. Here, we investigated whether GPR55 antag ...

Engineering Lymphangiogenesis : Implications for Cancer Immunotherapy and Beyond

Manuel Andreas Fankhauser

Melanoma causes the vast majority of skin cancer deaths, and there is currently no conventional treatment available that is able to cure metastatic melanoma patients. However, a novel treatment modality has recently emerged: cancer immunotherapy. Cancer im ...

Immune Antibodies and Helminth Products Drive CXCR2-Dependent Macrophage-Myofibroblast Crosstalk to Promote Intestinal Repair

Duncan-Bruce Sutherland, Nicola Harris, Benjamin John Marsland, Beatrice Volpe, Julia Esser-von Bieren, Jérôme Bürgi

Helminth parasites can cause considerable damage when migrating through host tissues, thus making rapid tissue repair imperative to prevent bleeding and bacterial dissemination particularly during enteric infection. However, how protective type 2 responses ...

Diminazene enhances stability of atherosclerotic plaques in ApoE-deficient mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, Maiia Bragina, Fabiana Pereira Da Costa Fraga

Angiotensin (Ang) II contributes to the development of atherosclerosis, while Ang-(1-7) has atheroprotective actions. Accordingly, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which breaks-down Aug 11 and forms Ang-(1-7), has been suggested as a target against ...

The impact of host genetic variation on infection with HIV-1

Paul Jack Mc Laren

The outcome after infection with the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is a complex phenotype determined by interactions among the pathogen, the human host and the surrounding environment. An impact of host genetic variation on HIV-1 susceptibili ...

An in vitro model of the tumor-lymphatic microenvironment with simultaneous transendothelial and luminal flows reveals mechanisms of flow enhanced invasion

Melody Swartz, Marco Pisano, Valentina Triacca

The most common cancers, including breast and skin, disseminate initially through the lymphatic system, yet the mechanisms by which tumor cells home towards, enter and interact with the lymphatic endothelium remain poorly understood. Transmural and luminal ...
