Conversion of tumors into autologous vaccines by intratumoral injection of alpha-Gal glycolipids that induce anti-Gal/alpha-Gal epitope interaction

Galili, Uri, "Conversion of tumors into autologous vaccines by intratumoral injection of alpha-Gal glycolipids that induce anti-Gal/ alpha-Gal epitope interaction" (2011). Anti-Gal is the most abundant antibody in humans, constituting 1% of immunoglobulins. Anti-Gal binds specifically α-gal epitopes (Galα1-3Galβ1-4GlcNAc-R). Immunogenicity of autologous tumor associated antigens (TAA) is greatl...

Methylene-blue-sensitized gelatin holograms.

Like dichromated gelatin ~DCG!, methylene-bluesensitized gelatin ~MBG! is also a potential holographic recording material1,2 and can be used in forming a hologram with a high diffraction efficiency ~DE! and high signal-to-noise ratio ~SNR!. The addition of methylene blue ~MB! into a gelatin or DCG film renders it effective to record holograms with red light from an inexpensive He–Ne laser, whic...

Delayed anaphylaxis to alpha-gal, an oligosaccharide in mammalian meat.

IgE-mediated hypersensitivity refers to immune reactions that can be rapidly progressing and, in the case of anaphylaxis, are occasionally fatal. To that end, identification of the associated allergen is important for facilitating both education and allergen avoidance that are essential to long-term risk reduction. As the number of known exposures associated with anaphylaxis is limited, discove...
