Engineering antitumor immunity by T-cell adoptive immunotherapy.
The adoptive transfer of antigen-specific T cells has been used successfully to treat experimental tumors in animal models and viral infections in humans, but harnessing the exquisite specificity and potency of T cells to treat human malignancy has proven challenging. The efforts to use T cells to treat patients with cancer have often been informative in identifying limitations that must be ove...
متن کاملCan We Define Levels Of Artificial Intelligence?
The paper argues for a graded approach to the study of artificial intelligence. In contrast to the Turing test approach, such an approach permits the measurement of incremental progress in AI research. Results on the conceptual abilities of pigeons are summarized. These abilities far exceed the generalization abilities of current AI programs. It is argued that matching the conceptual abilities ...
متن کاملAdoptive immunotherapy
T cells expressing high avidity T-cell receptors (TCRs) have been shown to mediate superior therapeutic effects. A novel koff-rate assay allows for the quantitative and reproducible assessment of the avidity of TCRs for their ligands directly on living T cells, ex vivo. This assay might facilitate the selection of T cells with an optimal avidity for their target, hence favoring the development ...
متن کاملHow can we define intrinsic motivation?∗
Intrinsic motivation is a crucial mechanism for open-ended cognitive development since it is the driver of spontaneous exploration and curiosity. Yet, it has so far only been conceptualized in ad hoc manners in the epigenetic robotics community. After reviewing different approaches to intrinsic motivation in psychology, this paper presents a unified definition of intrinsic motivation, based on ...
متن کاملInhibition of CSF-1 receptor improves the antitumor efficacy of adoptive cell transfer immunotherapy.
Colony stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) recruits tumor-infiltrating myeloid cells (TIM) that suppress tumor immunity, including M2 macrophages and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC). The CSF-1 receptor (CSF-1R) is a tyrosine kinase that is targetable by small molecule inhibitors such as PLX3397. In this study, we used a syngeneic mouse model of BRAF(V600E)-driven melanoma to evaluate the abili...
