The Roles of IL-7 and IL-15 in Niches for Lymphocyte Progenitors and Immune Cells in Lymphoid Organs
Lymphoid organs consist of immune cells and stromal cells. The stromal cells produce various cytokines that support the development, maintenance, and... -
De novo generation of the NPM-ALK fusion recapitulates the pleiotropic phenotypes of ALK+ ALCL pathogenesis and reveals the ROR2 receptor as target for tumor cells
BackgroundAnaplastic large cell lymphoma positive for ALK (ALK+ ALCL) is a rare type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. This lymphoma is caused by chromosomal...

Models for Drug Individualization: Patient to Population Level
Multiple drug dosing models have been developed which try to address optimal drug therapy for the individual patient based on population data. Drug... -
Single-cell multi-omics of mitochondrial DNA disorders reveals dynamics of purifying selection across human immune cells
Pathogenic mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) compromise cellular metabolism, contributing to cellular heterogeneity and disease. Diverse...

Immunology in Medical Biotechnology
Mammalian immune system is represented by a veneered defense system comprising of both innate and adaptive immune responses. There is a continuous... -
Tissue-resident immunity in the female and male reproductive tract
The conception of how the immune system is organized has been significantly challenged over the last years. It became evident that not all...
