Characterization of a B16-F10 melanoma model locally implanted into the ear pinnae of C57BL/6 mice

The common experimental use of B16-F10 melanoma cells focuses on exploring their metastatic potential following intravenous injection into mice. In this study, B16-F10 cells are used to develop a primary tumor model by implanting them directly into the ear ...

Transcellular Pathways in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells Regulate Changes in Solute Transport by Fluid Stress

Melody Swartz, Marco Pisano, Esra Güç, Valentina Triacca

Rationale: The transport of interstitial fluid and solutes into lymphatic vessels is important for maintaining interstitial homeostasis and delivering antigens and soluble factors to the lymph node for immune surveillance. Transendothelial transport across ...

Perivascular Macrophages Limit Permeability

Melody Swartz, Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Esra Güç

Objective-Perivascular cells, including pericytes, macrophages, smooth muscle cells, and other specialized cell types, like podocytes, participate in various aspects of vascular function. However, aside from the well-established roles of smooth muscle cell ...

Adjuvant-free immunization with infective filarial larvae as lymphatic homing antigen carriers

Melody Swartz, Alexandre de Titta, Esra Güç, David Scott Wilson, Marcela Rincón-Restrepo, Sachiko Hirosue

Controlled infection with intestinal nematodes has therapeutic potential for preventing the symptoms of allergic and autoimmune diseases. Here, we engineered larvae of the filarial nematode Litomosoides sigmodontis as a vaccine strategy to induce adaptive ...

Local induction of lymphangiogenesis with engineered fibrin-binding VEGF-C promotes wound healing by increasing immune cell trafficking and matrix remodeling

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Esra Güç, Manuel Andreas Fankhauser

Lymphangiogenesis occurs in inflammation and wound healing, yet its functional roles in these processes are not fully understood. Consequently, clinically relevant strategies for therapeutic lymphangiogenesis remain underdeveloped, particularly using growt ...

Growth Factors Engineered for Super-Affinity to the Extracellular Matrix Enhance Tissue Healing

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Esra Güç, Stéphanie Elisabeth Metzger

Growth factors (GFs) are critical in tissue repair, but their translation to clinical use has been modest. Physiologically, GF interactions with extracellular matrix (ECM) components facilitate localized and spatially regulated signaling; therefore, we rea ...

Chemotherapy elicits pro-metastatic extracellular vesicles in breast cancer models

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Chiara Cianciaruso, Esra Güç, Ioanna Keklikoglou, Alan Nicolas Thierry Guichard

Cytotoxic chemotherapy is an effective treatment for invasive breast cancer. However, experimental studies in mice also suggest that chemotherapy has pro-metastatic effects. Primary tumours release extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, that can ...
