Journal ArticleDOI

Chemopreventive agents induce programmed death-1-ligand 1 (PD-L1) surface expression in breast cancer cells and promote PD-L1-mediated T cell apoptosis.

TL;DR: Examination of the effects of chemopreventive agents on the surface expression of programmed death-1-ligand 1, a negative regulator of T cell anti-tumor immunity, reveals a potential link between chemotherapy and cancer immunoresistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

γ-Secretase inhibitors repress thymocyte development

TL;DR: It is shown that application of γ-secretase inhibitors to fetal thymus organ cultures interferes with T cell development in a manner consistent with loss or reduction of Notch1 function, and this system presents a system in which rapid evaluation of ιsecretase-targeted pharmaceuticals for their ability to inhibit Notch activity can be performed in a relevant context.
Journal ArticleDOI

Contributions of Age-Related Thymic Involution to Immunosenescence and Inflammaging

TL;DR: How T cell adaptive immunity mediates inflammaging and plays a crucial role in the progression of age-related neurological and cardiovascular diseases, as well as cancer is described.
Journal Article

Thymus Size and Age-related Thymic Involution: Early Programming, Sexual Dimorphism, Progenitors and Stroma

TL;DR: Previous and most recent evidence is emphasized suggesting that early programming of the thymus, sexual dimorphism, and the efficiency of specific T-cell progenitors and theThymic microenvironment are all crucial determinants of immune activity from early life through advanced ages.
Journal ArticleDOI

A domain of Foxn1 required for crosstalk-dependent thymic epithelial cell differentiation.

TL;DR: In contrast to thymi in mice with the null allele, the Foxn1Δ/Δ thymus promoted T cell development, but with specific defects at both the double-negative and double-positive stages.
