Extranodal induction of therapeutic immunity in the tumor microenvironment after intratumoral delivery of Tbet gene-modified dendritic cells

Murine dendritic cells (DC) transduced to express the Type-1 transactivator T-bet (i.e. mDC.Tbet) and delivered intratumorally as a therapy are superior to control wild-type DC in slowing the growth of establi...

Therapeutic effectiveness of intratumorally delivered dendritic cells engineered to express the pro-inflammatory cytokine, interleukin (IL)-32

Interleukin-32 (IL-32) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine conditionally produced by T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, monocytes, epithelial cells and keratinocytes, which has an important role in host resistance...

Altered responses of human elbow flexors to peripheral-nerve and cortical stimulation during a sustained maximal voluntary contraction

 The short-latency electromyographic response evoked by transcranial magnetic stimulation (MEP) increases in size during fatigue, but the mechanisms are unclear. Because large changes occur in the muscle actio...

Assessing Depressive Symptoms in Multiple Sclerosis: Is It Necessary to Omit Items from the Original Beck Depression Inventory?

Overlap between depression scale item content and medical symptoms may exaggerate depression estimates for patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). We reconsider Mohr and co-workers' (1997) recommendation to omi...

Effect of contraction strength on responses in biceps brachii and adductor pollicis to transcranial magnetic stimulation

The sizes of the motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) and the durations of the silent periods after transcranial magnetic stimulation were examined in biceps brachii, brachioradialis and adductor pollicis in human s...

Interferon receptors and their role in interferon action

Interferon (IFN)_proteins interact with cells through specific cell surface receptors, some of which have been purified and cloned. The alpha-IFNs and beta-IFN bind to a common receptor (type I), whereas gamma...

Contact Angles for Thin Lipid Films and the Determination of London-van der Waals Forces

FROM the theory of thin liquid films it is evident that the tension of the two-sided film should be less than twice the tension of the bulk liquid surfaces with which the film is in equilibrium. One would ther...
