Essentiality of mmpL3 and impact of its silencing on Mycobacterium tuberculosis gene expression

Stewart Cole, Andrej Benjak

MmpL3 is an inner membrane transporter of Mycobacterium tuberculosis responsible for the export of trehalose momomycolate, a precursor of the mycobacterial outer membrane component trehalose dimycolate (TDM), as well as mycolic acids bound to arabinogalact ...

T-cell surface modification with synthetic nanomaterials for cell-mediated delivery to the central nervous system

Maxime Ayer

The future of medicine lies in therapeutic approaches that can specifically target sites of disease and induce a localized and effective therapeutic effect. Cell-mediated delivery, especially using cells of the circulatory repertoire such as T lymphocytes, ...

The selective Tie2 inhibitor rebastinib blocks recruitment and function of Tie2Hi macrophages in breast cancer and neuroendocrine pancreatic tumors

Michele De Palma, Ece Kadioglu

Tumor-infiltrating myeloid cells promote tumor progression by mediating angiogenesis, tumor cell intravasation and metastasis, which can offset the effects of chemotherapy, radiation, and anti-angiogenic therapy. Here, we show that the kinase switch contro ...

Role of myeloid cells in mediating protection against parasitic helminth larvae

Beatrice Volpe

Helminth infections affect around one fourth of the world population living in the poorest regions of our planet. Helminths mainly cause debilitating chronic effects on health, development and nutritional status of infected people. The development of a vac ...

Overexpression of the human antigen R suppresses the immediate paradoxical proliferation of melanoma cell subpopulations in response to suboptimal BRAF inhibition

Christoph Schwärzler

Tumor plasticity and the heterogeneous response of melanoma cells to targeted therapies are major limits for the long-term efficacy of this line of therapy. Targeting tumor plasticity is theoretically possible through the modulation of the expression of RN ...

Targeting macrophages sensitizes chronic lymphocytic leukemia to apoptosis and inhibits disease progression

Michele De Palma

The role of monocytes/macrophages in the development and progression of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is poorly understood. Transcriptomic analyses show that monocytes/macrophages and leukemic cells cross talk during CLL progression. Macrophage deplet ...

Host genetic predictors of the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan catabolism among treated HIV-infected Ugandans

Objective: Plasma kynurenine/tryptophan ratio, a biomarker of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase-1 (IDO) activity, is a strong independent predictor of mortality in HIV-infected Ugandans initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART) and may play a key role in HIV patho ...

TIE-2-expressing monocytes are lymphangiogenic and associate specifically with lymphatics of human breast cancer

George Coukos, Nicolas Jean Philippe Guex, Luc Henry, Hans-Anton Lehr

In experimental mouse models of cancer, increasingly compelling evidence point toward a contribution of tumor associated macrophages (TAM) to tumor lymphangiogenesis. Corresponding experimental observations in human cancer remain scarce although lymphatic ...

Effects of PVA coated nanoparticles on human immune cells

Heinrich Hofmann, Lionel André Maurizi

Nanotechnology provides new opportunities in human medicine, mainly for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The autoimmune disease rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is often diagnosed after irreversible joint structural damage has occurred. There is an urgent nee ...

Theoretical and Experimental Characterization of Amino-PEG-Phosphonate-Terminated Polyphosphorhydrazone Dendrimers: Influence of Size and PEG Capping on Cytotoxicity Profiles

Alessandro Barducci

The synthesis of new series of PPH (poly(phosphorhydrazone)) dendrimers with amino-PEG phosphonates or the corresponding amino-PEG phosphonic acids as terminal groups is presented, from generations 1-3. The size of PEG-terminated dendrimers is experimental ...

The Nimrod transmembrane receptor Eater is required for hemocyte attachment to the sessile compartment in Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre, Olivier Burri, Olivier Binggeli

Eater is an EGF-like repeat transmembrane receptor of the Nimrod family and is expressed in Drosophila hemocytes. Eater was initially identified for its role in phagocytosis of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. We have deleted eater and show t ...
