Cell encapsulation technology as a therapeutic strategy for CNS malignancies.
Gene therapy using viral vectors has to date failed to reveal its definitive clinical usefulness. Cell encapsulation technology represents an alternative, nonviral approach for the delivery of biologically active compounds to tumors. This strategy involves the use of genetically engineered producer cells that secrete a protein with therapeutic potential. The cells are encapsulated in an immunoi...
متن کاملNeutrophil-Endothelial Cell Interaction
Methods Bovine microvascular endothelial cells (MEC) were able to degrade the H202 generated by phorbol myristate acetate-activated bovine neutrophils or by glucose oxidase with a maximal capacity of 4.0±1.2 (SD) nmol/10' cells/min, corresponding to the H202 released by about 3 X 10' neutrophils. H202 degradation occurred via the glutathione redox cycle and catalase. Degradation via the glutath...
متن کاملB7-H1 shapes T-cell-mediated brain endothelial cell dysfunction and regional encephalitogenicity in spontaneous CNS autoimmunity.
Molecular mechanisms that determine lesion localization or phenotype variation in multiple sclerosis are mostly unidentified. Although transmigration of activated encephalitogenic T cells across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a crucial step in the disease pathogenesis of CNS autoimmunity, the consequences on brain endothelial barrier integrity upon interaction with such T cells and subsequent...
متن کاملCancers of the Brain and CNS: Global Patterns and Trends in Incidence
Miranda-Filho et al. in their recently published paper entitled “Cancers of the brain and CNS: global patterns and trends in incidence†provided a global status report of the geographic and temporal variations in the incidence of brain and CNS cancers in different countries across continents worldwide. While the authors confirm the role of genetic risk factors and ionizing radiation exposur...
متن کاملTumor-Associated CSF MicroRNAs for the Prediction and Evaluation of CNS Malignancies
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a readily reachable body fluid that is reflective of the underlying pathological state of the central nervous system (CNS). Hence it has been targeted for biomarker discovery for a variety of neurological disorders. CSF is also the major route for seeding metastases of CNS malignancies and its analysis could be informative for diagnosis and risk stratification of br...
