CCL21-induced immune cell infiltration.
Cellular immune responses can be initiated via peptide presentation by specialized antigen presenting cells, dendritic cells (DCs), which stimulate naïve T cells. The trafficking of DCs and T cells is regulated by chemokines such as CCL21. CCL21 is normally expressed in the lymphoid organs and coordinates the interactions between DCs and T cells, thereby contributing to the initiation of T cell...
متن کاملCancer Cell-Autonomous Parainflammation Mimics Immune Cell Infiltration.
Parainflammation is a unique variant of inflammation, characterized by epithelial-autonomous activation of inflammatory response. Parainflammation has been shown to strongly promote mouse gut tumorigenesis upon p53 loss. In a recent study, we explored the prevalence of parainflammation in human cancer and determined its relationship to certain molecular and clinical parameters affecting treatme...
متن کاملA monte carlo study of restricted diffusion: Implications for diffusion MRI of prostate cancer.
PURPOSE Diffusion MRI is used frequently to assess prostate cancer. The prostate consists of cellular tissue surrounding fluid filled ducts. Here, the diffusion properties of the ductal fluid alone were studied. Monte Carlo simulations were used to investigate ductal residence times to determine whether ducts can be regarded as forming a separate compartment and whether ductal radius could dete...
متن کاملMRI Diffusion Indices Sampled Along Streamline Trajectories: Quantitative Tractography Mapping
Abstract Several useful tractography-derived maps have recently been introduced, such as track density imaging (TDI) and the average pathlength map (APM). Here, an extension to these techniques is introduced by sampling diffusion indices along streamline trajectories (DIST). With this approach, voxels contain summary information of diffusivity measures within streamlines. The diffusion metric...
متن کاملRotation Invariant Completion Fields for Mapping Diffusion MRI Connectivity
Partial differential equations have been successfully used for fibre tractography and for mapping connectivity indices in the brain. However, the current implementation of methods which require 3D orientation to be tracked can suffer from serious shortcomings when invariance to 3D rotation is desired. In this paper we focus on the 3D stochastic completion field and introduce a new methodology t...
