Multimodal imaging of nanovaccine carriers targeted to human dendritic cells.
Dendritic cells (DCs) are key players in the initiation of adaptive immune responses and are currently exploited in immunotherapy against cancer and infectious diseases. The targeted delivery of nanovaccine particles (NPs) to DCs in vivo is a promising strategy to enhance immune responses. Here, targeted nanovaccine carriers were generated that allow multimodal imaging of nanocarrier-DC interac...
متن کاملNanostructured lipid carriers loaded with resveratrol modulate human dendritic cells
Dendritic cells (DCs) are promising targets for drug delivery, as they can induce immunity or tolerance. The current study aims to examine the potential of using nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC) as delivery systems for human DC by evaluating nanoparticle internalization, cell labeling, and drug activity. NLC were formulated incorporating the fluorochrome fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC-NLC)...
متن کاملTargeted delivery of TLR ligands to human and mouse dendritic cells strongly enhances adjuvanticity.
Effective vaccines consist of 2 components: immunodominant antigens and effective adjuvants. Whereas it has been demonstrated that targeted delivery of antigens to dendritic cells (DCs) improves vaccine efficacy, we report here that co-targeting of TLR ligands (TLRLs) to DCs strongly enhances adjuvanticity and immunity. We encapsulated ligands for intracellular TLRs within biodegradable nanopar...
متن کاملSensitivity of Human Leukemic Cells to Carvedilol
Background and Objective: Carvedilol, a non-specific β-blocker, has been used for treatment of hypertension, stroke and congestive heart failure. The therapeutic effects of β blockers in cancer patients have been shown. Carvedilol has considerable anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic properties. In this study, the effects of carvedilol on proliferation of human U937 and Molt-4 leuk...
متن کاملMannosylated biodegradable polyethyleneimine for targeted DNA delivery to dendritic cells
BACKGROUND To establish a potential gene-delivery system with the ability to deliver plasmid DNA to dendritic cells (DCs) more efficiently and specifically, we designed and synthesized a low-molecular-weight polyethyleneimine and triethyleneglycol polymer (PEI-TEG) and a series of its mannosylated derivatives. METHODS PEI-TEG was synthesized from PEI2000 and PEI600 with TEG as the cross-linke...
