Successful immunogenic apoptosis in experimental cancer therapy depends on the induction of strong host anti-tumor responses. Given that tumors are often resistant to apoptosis, it is important identify alternative molecular mechanisms elicit cell death. We have developed a genetic model which direct dimerization FADD combined with inducible expression RIPK3 promotes necroptosis. report necroptotic cells release damage-associated patterns and promote maturation dendritic cells, cross-priming...
Abstract Identification and validation of extracellular vesicle (EV)-associated biomarkers requires robust isolation characterization protocols. We assessed the impact some commonly implemented pre-analytical, analytical post-analytical variables in EV research. Centrifugal filters with different membrane types pore sizes are used to reduce large volume biofluids prior or concentrate EVs. compared five reported for their efficiency when using plasma, urine EV-spiked PBS. Regenerated...
Highlights•ZEB2 is highly expressed across the macrophage lineage•ZEB2 preserves tissue-specific identities of macrophages tissues•ZEB2 deficient are outcompeted by WT counterparts•LXRα crucial for Kupffer cell identity and maintained ZEB2SummaryHeterogeneity between different populations has become a defining feature this lineage. However, conserved factors remain largely unknown. The transcription factor ZEB2 best described its role in epithelial to mesenchymal transition; however, within...
