چکیده

Computational approaches to immunology represent an important area of systems biology where both multiscale and time and spatial dynamics play important roles. In order to explore how different modelling and computational techniques can be better integrated to support in silico experiments, a collaboration amongst researchers of Italian and British institutions has been established. In the long term we anticipate that this will lead to the engineering of synthetic immune responses.

Expression of an Innate Immune Element (Mouse Hepcidin-1) in Baculovirus Expression System and the Comparison of Its Function with Synthetic Human Hepcidin-25

Hepcidin is an innate immune element which decreases the iron absorption from diet and iron releasing from macrophage cell. In contrast to the chemical iron chelators, there has been limited effort applied to the specific use of hepcidin as a new drug for decreasing the iron overload. Hepcidin is produced in different biological systems. For instance, E-coli is used for human hepcidin expressio...

Antigenic and immunogenic properties of totally synthetic peptide-based anti-fertility vaccines.

In this study we describe the results of experiments in which a variety of totally synthetic luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) vaccines were assembled and examined for their abilities to elicit antibody responses and induce sterility in mice. It is shown that totally synthetic vaccines consisting of a 15 residue-defined T cell epitope and the 10 residue LHRH epitope not only induced ...

Synthetic biology approaches to engineer T cells.

There is rapidly growing interest in learning how to engineer immune cells, such as T lymphocytes, because of the potential of these engineered cells to be used for therapeutic applications such as the recognition and killing of cancer cells. At the same time, our knowhow and capability to logically engineer cellular behavior is growing rapidly with the development of synthetic biology. Here we...
