Journal ArticleDOI

Differential regulation of central nervous system autoimmunity by TH1 and TH17 cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that T cells that are specific for different myelin epitopes generate populations characterized by different T helper type 17 (TH17) to T helpertype 1 (TH1) ratios depending on the functional avidity of interactions between TCR and peptide-MHC complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reprogramming Tumor-Associated Macrophages by Antibody Targeting Inhibits Cancer Progression and Metastasis

TL;DR: It is found that the pattern recognition scavenger receptor MARCO defines a subtype of suppressive TAMs and is linked to clinical outcome, and it is demonstrated that immunotherapies using antibodies designed to modify myeloid cells of the TME represent a promising mode of cancer treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase Expression by Peroxisome Proliferator–Activated Receptor-α Ligands, Glucocorticoids, and Insulin

TL;DR: The findings suggest that decreased levels of insulin and increased levels of fatty acids and glucocorticoids promote PDK4 gene expression in starvation and diabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Breakthrough: Macrophage-Directed Cancer Immunotherapy

TL;DR: That macrophages/innate immunity can be modulated to play a central role in directly or indirectly combating cancer is a breakthrough that seems likely to finally make successful immunotherapy of cancer a reality.
