Hall, Dah-Jiun Fu, Quanming Shi, Alan Chiu, Duo An, Longhai Wang, Yehudah Pardo, Teresa Southard, Charles G. Danko, Jan Liphardt, Alexander Yu Nikitin, Mingming Wu, Claudia Fischbach, Scott Coonrod, Minglin MaAbstractThe physical microenvironment of tumor cells plays an important role in cancer initiation and progression. Here, we present evidence that confinement – a new physical parameter...

Mucosal immunity could...

However, the antitumor effect is restricted due to the poor tumor penetration and retention, premature drug release and immunosuppressive environment of tumor sites. And as the size...

Recently, the development of smart nanodrug systems has attracted more...

GP-NP shows controlled release of azido-sugars and can efficiently label LS174T colon...

Paul SanterreAbstractMonocytes are at the crossroads between inflammation and coagulation processes since they can secrete pro-inflammatory cytokines and express tissue factor (TF), a major initiator of coagulation. Cobalt-chrome (CoCr), a metal alloy, used as a biomaterial...

Furthermore, multiple genetic alterations are necessary to overcome tumor-induced immune-suppressive mechanisms. However, one of the major obstacles...

However, it is continuously plagued by immune rejection, which is mostly caused by T cell-mediated reactions. Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells, and blocking the costimulatory...
