چکیده
In this position paper, we outline a vision for a new type of engineering: immuno-engineering, that can be used for the development of biologically grounded and theoretically understood Artificial Immune Systems (AIS). We argue that, like many bio-inspired paradigms, AIS have drifted somewhat away from the source of inspiration. We also argue that through an interdisciplinary approach, it is possible to exploit the underlying biology for computation in a way that, as yet, has not been achieved. Immuno-engineering will not only allow for the potential development of more powerful AIS, but allow for feed back to biology from computation.

متن کاملEffects of Dielectrophoresis on Growth, Viability and Immuno-reactivity of Listeria monocytogenes
Dielectrophoresis (DEP) has been regarded as a useful tool for manipulating biological cells prior to the detection of cells. Since DEP uses high AC electrical fields, it is important to examine whether these electrical fields in any way damage cells or affect their characteristics in subsequent analytical procedures. In this study, we investigated the effects of DEP manipulation on the charact...
متن کاملA Pattern Matching Algorithm for Codon Optimization and CpG Motif-Engineering in DNA Expression Vectors
Codon optimization enhances the efficiency of DNA expression vectors used in DNA vaccination and gene therapy by increasing protein expression. Additionally, certain nucleotide motifs have experimentally been shown to be immuno-stimulatory while certain others immuno-suppressive. In this paper, we present algorithms to locate a given set of immuno-modulatory motifs in the DNA expression vectors...
متن کاملEngineered antibody fragments for immuno-PET imaging of endogenous CD8+ T cells in vivo.
The noninvasive detection and quantification of CD8(+) T cells in vivo are important for both the detection and staging of CD8(+) lymphomas and for the monitoring of successful cancer immunotherapies, such as adoptive cell transfer and antibody-based immunotherapeutics. Here, antibody fragments are constructed to target murine CD8 to obtain rapid, high-contrast immuno-positron emission tomograp...
