More Than Black or White: Melanization and Toll Share Regulatory Serine Proteases in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre, Jan Paul Dudzic, Mark Austin Hanson, Igor Iatsenko

The melanization response is an important defense mechanism in arthropods. This reaction is mediated by phenoloxidases (POs), which are activated by complex extracellular serine protease (SP) cascades. Here, we investigate the role of SPs in the melanizati ...

Nucleic acids presenting polymer nanomaterials as vaccine adjuvants

Maartje Martina Cornelia Bastings, Kaltrina Paloja, Alice Comberlato

Most vaccines developed today include only the antigens that best stimulate the immune system rather than the entire virus or microbe, which makes vaccine production and use safer and easier, though they lack potency to induce acceptable immunity and long- ...

Amphiphilic nanoparticle delivery enhances the anticancer efficacy of a TLR7 ligand via local immune activation

Francesco Stellacci, Ye Yang, Ahmet Bekdemir, Marie Mueller

Although immunotherapy shows great promise for the long-term control of cancer, many tumors still fail to respond to treatment. To improve the outcome, the delivery of immunostimulants to the lymph nodes draining the tumor, where the antitumor immune respo ...

Antigens reversibly conjugated to a polymeric glyco-adjuvant induce protective humoral and cellular immunity

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Xavier Fredy René Quaglia-Thermes, Melody Swartz, Giacomo Olimpio Diaceri, Sachiko Hirosue, Laura Jeanbart, David Scott Wilson, Maria Anna Sofia Broggi, Michal Mateusz Raczy, Ruyi Wang

Fully effective vaccines for complex infections must elicit a diverse repertoire of antibodies (humoral immunity) and CD8+ T-cell responses (cellular immunity). Here, we present a synthetic glyco-adjuvant named p(Man-TLR7), which, when conjugated to antige ...

Integrin-Mediated Macrophage Adhesion Promotes Lymphovascular Dissemination in Breast Cancer

Michele De Palma, Sina Nassiri, Mario Leonardo Squadrito

Lymphatic vasculature is crucial for metastasis in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC); however, cellular and molecular drivers controlling lymphovascular metastasis are poorly understood. We define a macrophage-dependent signaling cascade that facilitate ...

Novel therapeutic strategies targeting the B-cell receptor signaling and antigen presentation pathways in non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Elena Battistello

B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (B-NHLs) are a heterogeneous group of tumors deriving from the malignant transformation of B cells. The two most common B-NHL subtypes are follicular lymphoma (FL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), which account togeth ...

Carboplatin/paclitaxel, E7-vaccination and intravaginal CpG as tri-therapy towards efficient regression of genital HPV16 tumors

Douglas Hanahan, Gabriele Galliverti

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) are responsible for genital and oral cancers associated with the expression of the E6/E7 HPV oncogenes. Therapeutic vaccines targeting those oncogenes can only partially control tumor progression, highlighting the neces ...

Structure and Function of the Branched Receptor-Binding Complex of Bacteriophage CBA120

Sergey Nazarov, Petr Leiman, Sergii Buth, Michel Plattner, Nikolai Prokhorov

Bacteriophages recognize their host cells with the help of tail fiber and tailspike proteins that bind, cleave, or modify certain structures on the cell surface. The spectrum of ligands to which the tail fibers and tailspikes can bind is the primary determ ...

Cancer cell-derived long pentraxin 3 (PTX3) promotes melanoma migration through a toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/NF-kappa B signaling pathway

Mélanie Louise Tichet

Cutaneous melanoma is one of the most aggressive cancers characterized by a high plasticity, a propensity for metastasis, and drug resistance. Melanomas are composed of phenotypically diverse subpopulations of tumor cells with heterogeneous molecular profi ...

Evolution of longevity improves immunity in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre

Much has been learned about the genetics of aging from studies in model organisms, but still little is known about naturally occurring alleles that contribute to variation in longevity. For example, analysis of mutants and transgenes has identified insulin ...
