摘要:
This process, which essentially comprises the following steps:esterification of the free acid groups of the collagen,transformation of the esterified groups into hydrazides groups,transformation of the hydrazide groups into azide groups by the action of nitrous acid, is characterized in that each step is separated by a rinsing in an aqueous salt solution, and in that the step of transformation of esterified groups into azide groups and the step of transformation of hydrazide groups into azide groups by the action of nitrous acid, are performed in the presence of salt.
摘要:
Methods and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of BAP1 deficient cancer are based on investigation of the role of BET (Bromodomain and Extra-Terminal motif proteins) in BAP1 deficient cancer and screened isogenic cells (BAP1 WT vs KO). BET inhibitors show more anti-proliferative activity against cells KO for BAP1. Using isogenic cell lines and uveal melanoma PDX derived cell lines with different status of expression for BAP1 showed a highest dose response to a BET inhibitors (OTX015 and BI894999) in BAP1 KO isogenic cells compared to WT cells and an enhanced dose response to OTX015 in a BAP1 mutated uveal melanoma (UM) derived cells compared to UM cells expressing BAP1. BET inhibitors have a role in BAP1 deficient cancer, and BET inhibitors are useful in the treatment of BAP1 deficient cancer, particularly BAP1 deficient Uveal Melanoma, clear cell Renal Carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma and mesothelioma.
摘要:
A device including a first portion, a second portion, a first contact and a second contact, the first portion being made of a semiconductor having a first doping, the second portion being made of a semiconductor having a second doping different than the first, the first portion and the second portion forming a p/n junction including a depletion zone in the first portion, the contacts being configured so that when an electric voltage (V1) is applied between the contacts, a dimension of the depletion zone depends on a value of the electric voltage, an ionization energy being defined for dopants of the second portion. The device includes an emitter generating a radiation having an energy greater than the ionization energy and illuminating the second portion with the radiation.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to methods of diagnosis and treatment of autoimmune, chronic inflammatory and lymphoproliferative diseases based on the identification of a population of pathogenic B and/or T cells showing a specific phenotype. These cells may be identified by their specific pattern of expression of marker proteins.
摘要:
The present invention is relative to an isolated nucleic acid molecule encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), wherein the CAR comprises an antibody or antibody fragment which includes a anti-IL-1RAP binding domain, polypeptides encoded by this nucleic acid molecule, isolated chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) molecule comprising such an antibody or antibody fragment, a vector comprising a nucleic acid molecule encoding a CAR, as well as a T cell comprising this vector. The present invention is also relative to the use of this T cell (autologous or allogeneic) expressing a CAR molecule to treat a proliferative disease in a mammal.
摘要:
The success of anti-tumor immune responses requires effector T cells to infiltrate solid tumors, a process guided by chemokines. Herein, we demonstrate that in vivo post-translational processing of chemokines by dipeptidylpeptidase 4 (DPP4, also known as CD26) limits lymphocyte migration to sites of inflammation and tumors. Inhibition of DPP4 enzymatic activity enhanced tumor rejection by preserving biologically active CXCL10, and increasing trafficking into the tumor by lymphocytes expressing the counter-receptor CXCR3. Furthermore, DPP4 inhibition improved adjuvant-based immunotherapy, adoptive T cell transfer and checkpoint blockade. These findings provide the first direct in vivo evidence for controlling lymphocyte trafficking through CXCL10 cleavage and support the use of DPP4 inhibitors for stabilizing the biologically active form of chemokines as a strategy to enhance tumor immunotherapy.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an expression cassette allowing expression of a functional LRIT3 protein in mammal eyes; said expression cassette is inserted in an expression vector, preferably an adeno-associated virus (AAV); accordingly, the present invention further relates to a recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector carrying a nucleic acid sequence encoding a normal LRIT3 gene, or fragment thereof, under the control of regulatory sequences which express the product of the gene in the ocular cells, a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising such a recombinant AAV vector and to its use for the treatment of congenital stationary night blindness
摘要:
The present disclosure is directed to a motor for a magnetic resonance (MR) tomography room, to a patient table for the MR room, to a MR elastography device, and to a MR tomography device. A MR tomography device for a MR elastography imaging protocol is arranged within the MR tomography room, and includes a rotational drive for supplying rotational energy to power a MR elastography transducer usable during the MR elastography imaging protocol, and a support structure. The rotational drive comprises a terminal for connecting the MR elastography transducer to the rotational drive, and a bearing means configured such that the position of the terminal relative to the support structure is adaptable along a trajectory predetermined by the bearing means. The rotational drive is mounted to the support structure via the bearing means.
摘要:
The invention relates to gut microbiota profiles associated with response or resistance to treatments with ICB, in particular with anti-PD1 or anti PD-L1 or anti-PD-L2 antibodies. In particular, the invention pertains to a theranostic method for identifying good responders, to whom an anti-PD1 or anti PD-L1 or anti-PD-L2 can be administered, while a pre-treatment based on FMT and/or immunogenic probiotics is recommended to bad responders exhibiting a dysbiosis. In particular, the present invention pertains to Akkermansia muciniphila as the main commensal species distinguishing responders from progressors and its use alone or with E. hirae for the treatment of antibiotics or gut repertoire insufficiency-associated dysbiosis.
