Suppression of microRNA activity amplifies IFN-γ-induced macrophage activation and promotes anti-tumor immunity

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Damya Laoui, Danielle Thompson

Tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) largely express an alternatively activated (or M2) phenotype, which entails immunosuppressive and tumour-promoting capabilities. Reprogramming TAMs towards a classically activated (M1) phenotype may thwart tumour-associ ...

miR-511-3p, embedded in the macrophage mannose receptor gene, contributes to intestinal inflammation

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito

MiR-511-3p is embedded in intron 5 of the CD206/MRC1 gene Mrc1, expressed by macrophage and dendritic cell populations. CD206 and miR-511-3p expression are co-regulated, and their contribution to intestinal inflammation is unclear. We investigated their ro ...

A Cationic Micelle Complex Improves CD8+T Cell Responses in Vaccination Against Unmodified Protein Antigen

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Davide Demurtas, Vasiliki Panagiotou

Nanoscale carrier platforms promote immune responses to vaccination by facilitating delivery of vaccine components to immunologically relevant sites. The technique is particularly valuable for subunit vaccination, in which coadministration of immunostimula ...

Parasite Proximity Drives the Expansion of Regulatory T Cells in Peyer's Patches following Intestinal Helminth Infection

Nicola Harris, Beatrice Volpe, Julia Esser-von Bieren, Mario Michael Zaiss, Lalit Kumar Dubey, Ilaria Mosconi, Luc Xavier Marie Lebon

Helminth infections are typically chronic in nature; however, the exact molecular mechanisms by which these parasites promote or thwart host immunity remain unclear. Worm expulsion requires the differentiation of CD4(+) T cells into Th2 cells, while regula ...
