    摘要: In one aspect, the present invention relates to an immunoglobulin E (IgE) for use in repolarizing macrophages from a first phenotype to an anti-tumor phenotype in the treatment of cancer in a subject; wherein the first phenotype comprises a quiescent (M0) macrophage phenotype or an anti-inflammatory (M2a) macrophage phenotype; and the anti-tumor phenotype comprises a newly polarized macrophage phenotype characterized by expression of the following cytokines and chemokines: tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα); interferon-gamma (IFNγ); interleukin-1beta (IL-1β); interleukin-6 (IL-6); Regulated on Activation, Normal T cell Expressed and Secreted (RANTES or CCL5); and/or interleukin-10 (IL-10).

    摘要: Embodiments and aspects described herein provide methods and systems for determining pressure difference across a tube arising from fluid flow within the tube, comprising: obtaining three-dimensional time dependent fluid velocity data at a plurality of points along the tube; processing the three-dimensional time dependent fluid velocity data to determine: i) a flow rate (Q) of the fluid through the tube; ii) the kinetic energy (K) of the fluid flow through the tube; iii) an advective energy rate (A) of the fluid flow through the tube; and iv) a viscous dissipation rate (V) pertaining to the fluid flow; and calculating the pressure difference in dependence on all of the flow rate (Q), kinetic energy (K), advective energy rate (A), and viscous dissipation rate (V). Further embodiments are also described.

    摘要: The invention relates to antibiotic compounds of formula (A1) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, tautomers and combinations thereof, wherein X and L are optional linkers and one of RA or R1 comprises Ar1, wherein Ar1 is an antibiotic resistance breaker moiety which comprises an optionally substituted C6-10 aryl, C7-13 aralkyl, C5-10 heteroaryl, C6-13 heteroaralkyl, C5-10 heterocyclyl, C6-13 heterocyclalkyl, C3-10 carbocyclyl, C4-13 carbocyclalkyl, —C(═NR′)—NR′R″ or —CH2—CH═CH2 group; wherein after administration of the compound to a bacterial infection this moiety reduces or prevents efflux. The invention also discloses pharmaceutical compositions comprising compounds of formula (A1) and the use of such compounds as medicaments, in particular, to treat bacterial infractions, such as drug-resistant bacterial infections.

    摘要: A method is described for using live mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in a way which allows for identification of patients likely to respond to immunosuppressive treatment using MSCs. The method involves contacting a sample from said patient with live MSCs in vitro, and determining whether the sample is able to induce at least some apoptosis to occur in live MSCs in vitro, or detection of elevated levels of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). The ability of the sample to induce said apoptosis and/or elevated levels of PGE2 is indicative of responsiveness of said patient to said immunosuppressive treatment and/or indicative of fitness to recover. Also provided are apoptotic MSCs for use in the treatment of immune-mediated disease or conditions, such as allo-immune or autoimmune disease, or for the prevention or treatment of rejection of a transplanted organ; or in regenerative medicine to stimulate tissue repair. Methods for preparing pharmaceutical compositions comprising the apoptotic MSCs are also described and claimed.

    摘要: Provided herein is a method of sorting human dermal fibroblasts, comprising (a) providing a cell population comprising human dermal fibroblasts; and (b) separating the human dermal fibroblasts into subpopulations based on expression of one or more cell-surface markers selected from CD39, CD36 and CD26. Also provided are isolated populations of human dermal papillary fibroblasts and cosmetic and therapeutic uses thereof.
