Front Immunol. 2017 Sep 11;8:1119. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2017.01119. eCollection 2017.

The calcium-binding protein S100A4 has been described to promote pathological inflammation in experimental autoimmune and inflammatory disorders and in allergy and to contribute to antigen presentation and antibody response after parenteral immunization with an alum-adjuvanted antigen. In this study,...

Nyström S, Bråve A, Falkeborn T, Devito C, Rissiek B, Johansson DX, Schröder U, Uematsu S, Akira S, Hinkula J, Applequist SE.
PMID: 26344341
Vaccines (Basel). 2013 Sep 25;1(4):415-43. doi: 10.3390/vaccines1040415.

Eliciting effective immune responses using non-living/replicating DNA vaccines is a significant challenge. We have previously shown that ballistic dermal plasmid DNA-encoded flagellin (FliC) promotes humoral as well as cellular immunity to co-delivered antigens. Here, we observe that a plasmid...

Frontiers in immunology

Mirotti L, Alberca Custódio RW, Gomes E, Rammauro F, de Araujo EF, Garcia Calich VL, Russo M.

Front Immunol. 2017 Feb 03;8:47. doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2017.00047. eCollection 2017.

Aluminum-containing adjuvants usually referred as Alum are considered as T helper type-2 (Th2) adjuvants, while agonists of toll-like receptors (TLRs) are viewed as adjuvants that favor Th1/Th17 immunity. Alum has been used in numerous vaccine formulations; however, its undesired...

Anti-Interleukin-9 Antibody Increases the Effect of Allergen-Specific Immunotherapy in Murine Allergic Rhinitis.

Allergy, asthma & immunology research

Shin JH, Kim DH, Kim BY, Kim SW, Hwang SH, Lee J, Kim SW.
PMID: 28293930
Allergy Asthma Immunol Res. 2017 May;9(3):237-246. doi: 10.4168/aair.2017.9.3.237.

PURPOSE: Interleukin (IL)-9 induces allergic responses; however, the roles of anti-IL-9 antibody in the induction of tolerance remain unclear. This study investigated the effects of anti-IL-9 antibody on oral tolerance (OT) in a mouse model of allergic rhinitis (AR).METHODS:...

Ethanol Extract of Perilla frutescens Suppresses Allergen-Specific Th2 Responses and Alleviates Airway Inflammation and Hyperreactivity in Ovalbumin-Sensitized Murine Model of Asthma.

Evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine : eCAM

Chen ML, Wu CH, Hung LS, Lin BF.
PMID: 26064160
Evid Based Complement Alternat Med. 2015;2015:324265. doi: 10.1155/2015/324265. Epub 2015 Apr 20.

This study was to investigate the effects of different fractions of Perilla frutescens (Pf) leaves extracted by water or ethanol on asthma. BALB/c mice sensitized intraperitoneally and challenged with ovalbumin (OVA) were divided into six groups. Each group of...

Particle-mediated Intravenous Delivery of Antigen mRNA Results in Strong Antigen-specific T-cell Responses Despite the Induction of Type I Interferon.

Molecular therapy. Nucleic acids

Broos K, Van der Jeught K, Puttemans J, Goyvaerts C, Heirman C, Dewitte H, Verbeke R, Lentacker I, Thielemans K, Breckpot K.
PMID: 27327138
Mol Ther Nucleic Acids. 2016 Jun 21;5(6):e326. doi: 10.1038/mtna.2016.38.

Cancer vaccines based on mRNA are extensively studied. The fragile nature of mRNA has instigated research into carriers that can protect it from ribonucleases and as such enable its systemic use. However, carrier-mediated delivery of mRNA has been linked...

One mechanism of glucocorticoid action in asthma may involve the inhibition of IL-25 expression.

Experimental and therapeutic medicine

Lu W, Lu C, Zhang C, Zhang C.
PMID: 28352347
Exp Ther Med. 2017 Feb;13(2):657-661. doi: 10.3892/etm.2016.4002. Epub 2016 Dec 27.

While the mechanism of action of classic cytokines in asthma has received increased attention from researchers, certain non-classical cytokines, such as IL-25, also participate in this mechanism. The present study was performed to investigate the changes in IL-25 (IL-17E)...

Noninvasive Transdermal Vaccination Using Hyaluronan Nanocarriers and Laser Adjuvant.

Advanced functional materials

Kim KS, Kim H, Park Y, Kong WH, Lee SW, Kwok SJ, Hahn SK, Yun SH.

Vaccines are commonly administered by injection using needles. Although transdermal microneedles are less-invasive promising alternatives, needle-free topical vaccination without involving physical damage to the natural skin barrier is still sought after as it can further reduce needle-induced anxiety and...
