By Allessandra DiCorato October 11, 2023 In 2011, Robert Manguso was working in a cell biology lab when his mother was diagnosed with Merkel cell carcinoma, a rare and aggressive skin cancer. His mother had a presentation of the disease that suggested her immune system was already on the job.

NK cells are among the front line of protection from infected and abnormal cells as part of the ‘innate immune response’. They recognise ‘cell stress molecules’ on the surface of infected, old, injured and cancerous cells without the need for complex pre-stimulation signals of the adaptive immune system (eg, T cells).

While commonly used, AAVs have limitations, including immune reactions and difficulties with re-dosing due to pre-existing antibodies. As with all CGTs, safety concerns, particularly related to immune responses and long-term effects, are crucial in cardiology. Allogeneic cell therapies must avoid immune rejection.

In one experiment, the microneedle patches were used to deliver a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine into mice, producing immune responses similar to a traditional injection. Printed vaccines caused mice to have a faster immune response. Nature Cell Biology. But the printed vaccines are very good! Read The F.D.A.

Two talks given at SITC 2019 session set me thinking about the quality of immune cell interactions, the outcomes for the interacting cells and the implications for cancer immunotherapy. A third view: the invasive tumor margin, where tumor cells are invading normal tissue. Fc-hacking immune responses.

This looks like an early step toward a much different future for biology: One in which natural language is used to design experiments, program robots, and automate experiments in high-throughput. Skin microbes can trigger strong immune responses. epidermidis , can actually trigger tumor-specific T cells. Nature Protocols.
