Epigenetic regulation of IL-12-dependent T cell proliferation

The Epigenetic Regulation of Blinatumomab Gene Expression: Tumor Cell-dependent T cell Response against Lymphoma Cells and Cytotoxic Activity

Conventional treatment for cancer such as surgical resection and chemotherapy can cause damage in cases with advanced cancers. Moreover, the identification of tumor-specific targets has great importance in T-cell therapies. For decades, T cell activity has been stimulated to improve anti-tumor activity. Bispecific antibodies have attracted strong interest from pharmaceutical companies, for thei...

effect of protein and dna components of toxoplasma gondii on il-12 production from dendritic cells and t cell proliferation

objective: the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of protein and dna components of toxoplasma gondii on maturation of dendritic cells and their efficiency in il-12 production and proliferation of t cells. materials and methods: for dc generation, bone marrow cells were cultured in the presence of gm-csf and il-4 for 5 days. tumor lysate and protein or dna components of toxo...

IL-6-inducing whole yeast-based immunotherapy directly controls IL-12-dependent CD8 T-cell responses.

In current clinical trails, whole yeast-based immunotherapy expressing hepatitis C viral antigens demonstrated statistically significant improvement in end of treatment responses when combined with type I interferon based standard of care, even in standard of care resistant patients. Although preclinical data suggest yeast vaccination, such as type I interferon, facilitates CD8 T-cell immunity,...

T Cell-Dependent Activation of Dendritic Cells Requires IL-12 and IFN- Signaling in T Cells

Cutting edge: IL-23 cross-regulates IL-12 production in T cell-dependent experimental colitis.

Although IL-12 and IL-23 share the common p40 subunit, IL-23, rather than IL-12, seems to drive the pathogenesis of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis and arthritis, because IL-23/p19 knockout mice are protected from disease. In contrast, we describe in this study that newly created LacZ knockin mice deficient for IL-23 p19 were highly susceptible for the development of experimental T ce...
