Abstract Two trispicolinate 1,4,7‐triazacyclonane (TACN)‐based ligands bearing three picolinate biphotonic antennae were synthetized and their Yb 3+ Gd complexes isolated. One series differs from the other by absence ( L 1 )/presence 2 ) of bromine atoms on antenna backbone, offering respectively improved optical singlet‐oxygen generation properties. Photophysical properties ligands, micellar Pluronic suspensions investigated. Complexes exhibit high two‐photon absorption cross‐section...
The systemic administration of IL-2 can act as a potent adjuvant for T cell-directed vaccine strategies. However, not only is the potentially toxic, but recent evidence suggests that it may also paradoxically limit duration and magnitude cytotoxic cell response. A recently identified cytokine, IL-15, shares many properties with provide preferential means augmenting responses. Although well characterized in vitro, there are few data on ability IL-15 to augment cell-mediated responses vivo. We...
Most methods available to predict protein epitopes are sequence based. There is a need for using 3D information prediction of discontinuous and derived immunogenic peptides.PEPOP uses the coordinates both clusters surface accessible segments that might correspond design peptides be used raise antibodies target cognate antigen at specific sites. To verify ability PEPOP identify epitopes, 13 crystallographically defined were compared with clusters: specificity ranged from 0.75 1.00,...
Epitope identification is essential for developing effective antibodies that can detect and neutralize bioactive proteins. Computational prediction a valuable time-saving alternative experimental identification. Current computational methods epitope are underused undervalued due to their high false positive rate. In this work, we targeted common properties of linear B-cell epitopes identified in an individual protein class (metalloendopeptidases) introduced method reduce the rate increase...
The concept of using two-photon excitation in the NIR for spatiotemporal control biological processes holds great promise. However, its use delivery nucleic acids has been very scarcely described and reported procedures are not optimal as they often involve potentially toxic materials irradiation conditions. This work prepares a simple system made biocompatible porous silicon nanoparticles (pSiNP) safe siRNA photocontrolled gene silencing cells upon excitation. PSiNP linked to an azobenzene...
This work investigates the electron-donating capabilities of two 10-π electron nitrogen bridgehead bicyclic [5,6]-fused ring systems, imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine and imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine rings. Eight compounds with varying positions electron-withdrawing moieties (TCF or DCI) coupled to imidazopyridine were synthesized studied. DCI-containing (Ib–IVb) exhibited a purely dipolar nature broad absorption bands, weak fluorescence, large Stokes shifts, strong solvatochromism. In contrast,...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are now a paramount concern in water remediation. Nowadays, urgent action is required for the development of advanced technologies aimed at capturing PFAS mitigating their impact. To offer solution, functional 3D printed hydrogel tailored designed to trap broad spectrum contaminants. The made photo-crosslinked dimethacrylate-ureido-trianglamine (DMU-Δ) Pluronic P123 dimethacrylate (PDM) fabricated by stereolithography (SLA). With aid 3D-printing,...
Loxoscelism is a necrotic-hemolytic syndrome caused by bites of brown spiders belonging to the genus Loxosceles. Many approaches for treatment Loxosceles poisoning have already been proposed, among which administration specific antivenom thought be more specific. We evaluated use peptides as immunogen raise in rabbits an antibody response that could protect animals from challenge Loxtox isoform LiD1, one main toxic component intermedia venom. Six antigenic regions LiD1 were mapped using SPOT...
Psalmopeotoxin I (PcFK1), a protein of 33 aminoacids derived from the venom spider Psalmopoeus Cambridgei, is able to inhibit growth Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites with an IC50 in low micromolar range. PcFK1 was proposed act as ion channel inhibitor, although experimental validation this mechanism lacking. The surface loops have some sequence similarity parasite sequences cleaved by PfSUB1, subtilisin-like protease essential for egress merozoites and invasion into erythrocytes. As...
Recently, gold(III) porphyrins have gained great interest as anticancer drugs not only for the stability of but also functionalization porphyrin to allow bridging with another metal such platinum(II). We report here, first time, synthesis three new bimetal compounds containing a conjugated platinum diamine moiety through malonate obtain enhanced cytotoxicity from both metals combined phototoxicity porphyrin. The complexes differ in type ligand around platinum(II): ammonia (NH3),...
The development of nanosystems with enhanced photothermal and photoacoustic properties is crucial for advancing theranostic applications in cancer therapy. This study explores polymeric nanoparticles constituted by a biocompatible poly(ethylene glycol)‐block‐poly(benzyl malate) copolymer loaded metal‐bis(dithiolene) complexes (M = Ni, Pd, Pt). These nanoparticles, prepared via robust nanoprecipitation method, demonstrate uniform morphology, efficient encapsulation (~70%), tailored...
Abstract The adoptive transfer of tumor-specific T cells expanded in vitro can be significant therapeutic value select cancer patients. This strategy is limited though, as it often difficult, if not impossible, to obtain clinical value. TCR genes mature generate tumor-reactive provides a potential mechanism overcome these limitations. To evaluate the feasibility such an approach and quality resulting cells, we generated replication-deficient retroviral vectors using well-characterized OT-1...
Abstract Intense efforts of research are made for developing antitumor vaccines that stimulate T cell-mediated immunity. Tumor cells specifically express at their surfaces antigenic peptides presented by MHC class I and recognized CTL. hold promise the development novel cancer immunotherapies. However, peptide-based face two major limitations: weak immunogenicity tumor Ags low metabolic stability in biological fluids. These hurdles, which separate solutions exist, must, however, be solved...
Abstract Interleukin-12 can act as a potent adjuvant for T cell vaccines, but its clinical use is limited by toxicity. Paracrine administration of IL-12 could significantly enhance the response to such vaccines without toxicity associated with systemic administration. We have developed novel vaccine delivery system (designated F2 gel matrix) composed poly-N-acetyl glucosamine that has dual properties sustained-release and adjuvant. To test efficacy paracrine IL-12, we incorporated this...
