Dermal fibroblast-derived extracellular matrix (ECM) synergizes with keratinocytes in promoting re-epithelization and scarless healing of skin wounds: Towards optimized skin tissue... by Xiangyu Dong, Han Xiang, Jiajia Li, Ailing Hao, Hao Wang, Yannian Gou, Aohua Li, Saidur Rahaman, Yiheng Qiu, Jiahao Li, Ou Mei, Jiamin Zhong, Wulin You, Guowei Shen, Xingye Wu, Jingjing Li, Yi Shu, Lewis L. Shi, Yi Zhu, Russell R. Reid, Tong-Chuan He, Jiaming Fan

“…The imDFs-derived ECM solicited no local immune response. While the ECM and to a lesser extent imDFs enhanced skin wound healing with excessive fibrosis, a combination of imDFs-derived ECM and iKera cells effectively promoted the re-epithelization and scarless healing of full-thickness skin wounds. …”

Delivery of dendritic cells targeting 3M2e-HA2 nanoparticles with a CpG adjuvant via lysosomal escape of Salmonella enhances protection against H9N2 avian influenza virus by Futing Jia, Wenfeng Wang, Yawen Tian, Ainul Zahra, Yingkai He, Chongbo Ge, Tongyu Zhang, Mingyue Wang, Jingshuo Gong, Gerui Zhang, Guilian Yang, Wentao Yang, Chunwei Shi, Jianzhong Wang, Haibin Huang, Xin Cao, Yang Zeng, Nan Wang, Zhannan Wang, Chunfeng Wang, Yanlong Jiang

“…All the constructed plasmids were then transformed into the sifA gene-deficient Salmonella vector χYL56 for oral immunization.The results showed that sifA-deficient Salmonella could efficiently increase antigen-specific mucosal sIgA antibody titers, especially in alveolar lavage samples, whereas the presence of the phage-54 nanobody could dramatically increase intracellular IFN-γ mRNA levels, indicating its ability to enhance the Th1-type immune response. Finally, the presence of the CpG adjuvant clearly increased T-cell proliferation and promoted DC activation, with elevated splenic TLR21 levels observed. …”

Immunotherapy of Cancer: Reprogramming Tumor-Immune Crosstalk by Kyle K. Payne, Amir A. Toor, Xiang-Yang Wang, Masoud H. Manjili

“…These include weak immunogenicity of the tumor, as well as immunosuppressive mechanisms which prevent effective antitumor immune responses. Recent studies suggest that aberrant expression of cancer testis antigens (CTAs) can generate robust antitumor immune responses, which implicates CTAs as potential targets for immunotherapy. …”

Toll-Like Receptors in Natural Killer Cells and Their Application for Immunotherapy by Ji-Yoon Noh, Suk Ran Yoon, Tae-Don Kim, Inpyo Choi, Haiyoung Jung

“…Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are the most well-defined PRRs with respect to PAMP recognition and induction of innate immune responses. They recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and trigger innate immune responses by inducing inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, antigen-presenting molecules, and costimulatory molecules. …”
