متن کاملModeling Natural Killer Cell Targeted Immunotherapies
Animal models have extensively contributed to our understanding of human immunobiology and to uncover the underlying pathological mechanisms occurring in the development of diseases. However, mouse models do not reproduce the genetic and molecular complexity inherent in human disease conditions. Human immune system (HIS) mouse models that are susceptible to human pathogens and can recapitulate ...
متن کاملMesothelin-targeted immunotherapies for malignant pleural mesothelioma.
Despite the use of aggressive trimodality therapy consisting of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, and hemithoracic radiation, the median survival of patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is 12 to 18 months (1,2). Immune responses have been shown to be beneficial in MPM patients (3,4); therefore, focusing immunotherapeutic strategies on promoting these immune responses is an attrac...
