Immunomodulators that remodel the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment have been combined with anti–programmed death 1 (α-PD1) or ligand (α-PDL1) immunotherapy but shown limited success in clinical trials. However, therapeutic strategies to modulate of lymph nodes largely overlooked. Here, we designed an albumin nanoparticle, Nano-PI, containing immunomodulators PI3Kγ inhibitor (IPI-549) and paclitaxel (PTX). We treated two breast cancer mouse models Nano-PI combination α-PD1, which...

Current cancer vaccines using T cell epitopes activate antitumor immunity through dendritic cell/macrophage-mediated antigen presentation, but they lack the ability to promote B/CD4 crosstalk, limiting their anticancer efficacy. We developed antigen-clustered nanovaccine (ACNVax) achieve long-term tumor remission by promoting crosstalk. The topographic features of ACNVax were achieved an iron nanoparticle core attached with optimal number gold nanoparticles, where clusters HER2 conjugated on...

Over the past decade, increasingly globalized society has continually redefined qualities and skills of an ideal engineering graduate for industry academic careers, and, more recently, in light a global pandemic 2020, pedagogical environment shifted toward virtual classroom setting. Because social challenges modern world are rapidly evolving, it is important to adapt teaching methods that reflect these changing times. An attractive method project-based learning (PBL), which known improve...

Influenza poses a persistent health burden worldwide. To design equitable vaccines effective across all demographics, it is essential to better understand how host factors such as genetic background and aging affect the single-cell immune landscape of influenza infection. Cytometry by time-of-flight (CyTOF) represents promising technique in this pursuit, but interpreting its large, high-dimensional data remains difficult. We've developed new analytical approach iGATE (in-silico gating...

Despite promising developments in computational tools, peptide-class II MHC (MHCII) binding predictors continue to lag behind their I counterparts. Consequently, peptide-MHCII is often evaluated experimentally using competitive assays, which tend sacrifice throughput for quantitative detail. Here, we developed a high-throughput semiquantitative screening strategy termed microsphere-assisted peptide (MAPS) that aims balance the accuracy of assays with tools. Using MAPS, screened library from...
