Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major complication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). Using preclinical mouse models disease, previous work in our laboratory has linked microRNA-155 (miR-155) to the development acute GVHD. Transplantation donor T cells from miR-155 host gene (MIR155HG) knockout mice prevented GVHD multiple murine while maintaining critical graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) response, necessary for relapse prevention. In this study, we used...
Abstract Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a donor T cell driven complication and the leading cause of non-relapse mortality in patients receiving an allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation (allo-HCT). Allogeneic cells eradicate residual leukemia prevent relapse via graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect are critical for responding against opportunistic infections post-transplant. Current regimens successful preventing GVHD broadly immunosuppressive come at cost increased risk and/or...
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is a significant public health concern worldwide. Immunomodulatory targets in the HNSCC tumor microenvironment are crucial to enhance efficacy of immunotherapy. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) pro-inflammatory cytokine that has been linked poor prognosis many cancers, but mechanistic role MIF remains unclear.
