The paucity of new drugs for the treatment Ewing sarcoma (EWS) limits cure these patients. CD99 has a strong membranous expression in EWS cells and, being also necessary tumor survival, is suitable target to aim at. In this article, we described novel human monospecific bivalent single-chain fragment variable diabody (dAbd C7) directed against potential clinical application.In vitro and vivo evaluation cell death molecular mechanisms triggered by anti-CD99 agents were performed alone or...
In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), natural killer (NK) cells show a dysfunctional phenotype that correlates with disease progression. Our aim was to restore NK cell functionality in CLL through specifically targeted IL15-stimulating activity; IL15 targeting could, fact, potentiate the activity of and reduce off-target effects. We designed developed cis-acting immunocytokine composed an anti-CD56 single-chain Fragment variable (scFv) IL15, labeled scFvB1IL15. scFvB1IL15 tested vitro on...
Background The mucosal tissues play a central role in the transmission of HIV-1 infection as well pathogenesis AIDS. Despite several clinical studies reported intestinal dysfunction during HIV infection, mechanisms underlying HIV-induced impairments epithelial barrier are still unclear. It has been postulated that alters enterocytic function and proteins have detected cell types mucosa. In present study, we analyzed effect accessory Nef protein on human line. Methodology/Principal Findings...
Several lines of evidence show that de novo expression carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) is strongly associated with reduced disease-free survival patients affected by metastatic melanoma. Previously published investigations report homophilic interactions between CEACAM1 expressed on natural killer (NK) cells and tumors inhibit the NK cell-mediated killing independently major histocompatibility complex class I recognition. This biological property can be...
Abstract Ewing sarcoma is the second most frequent primary tumor of bone, preferentially occurring in children and adolescents. Despite significant improvements have been achieved localized tumors thanks to dose intensification chemotherapy, outcome patients with metastasis at diagnosis remains grim. In addition, even favorable situations, must face important side effects which significantly impact their quality life. Either scientific patient communities are now very sensitive on need new...
