Evaluating strategies to enhance the anti-tumor immune response to a carbohydrate mimetic peptide vaccine.
Carbohydrate mimetic peptides of tumor associated carbohydrate antigens (TACA) are T-cell-dependent antigens and, therefore, immunization with these surrogates is predicted to overcome the low immunogenicity of carbohydrate antigens. Consistent with this hypothesis, we show that among the potential immune cells involved, peptide immunization led to an increase in T-cell populations. While pepti...
متن کاملImmunostimulatory CpG oligodeoxynucleotides enhance the immune response to vaccine strategies involving granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor.
Immunostimulatory oligodeoxynucleotides containing the CpG motif (CpG ODN) can activate various immune cell subsets and induce production of a number of cytokines. Prior studies have demonstrated that both CpG ODN and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) can serve as potent vaccine adjuvants. We used the 38C13 murine lymphoma system to evaluate the immune response to a comb...
متن کاملStrategies for Enhancing Vaccine-Induced CTL Antitumor Immune Responses
Vaccine-induced cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) play a critical role in adaptive immunity against cancers. An important goal of current vaccine research is to induce durable and long-lasting functional CTLs that can mediate cytotoxic effects on tumor cells. To attain this goal, there are four distinct steps that must be achieved. To initiate a vaccine-induced CTL antitumor immune response, dendr...
متن کاملImmunostimulant patch enhances immune responses to influenza virus vaccine in aged mice.
Improvement in the immune response to influenza virus vaccination in the elderly represents the primary unmet need in influenza virus vaccination. We have shown that topical application of immunostimulating (IS) patches containing heat-labile enterotoxin of Escherichia coli (LT) enhances immune responses to injected vaccines. We extend these findings and show that LT-IS patch application enhanc...

این تحقیق به منظور بررسی رابطه بین میزان استراتژیهای خود-تنظیم شده یادگیری و تمایل به ایجاد ارتباط دانشجویان زبان انگلیسی انجام شده است.علاوه بر این،روابط و کنش های موجود بین ریزسنجه های استراتژیهای خود-تنظیم شده یادگُیری ، مهارت نگارش و تمایل به برقراری ارتباط و همچنین تاٍثیرجنسیت دانشجویان زبان انگلیسی در استراتژیهای خود-تنظیم شده یادگیری و تمایل به برقراری ارتباط آنها مورد بررسی قرار گرفته شد.
