The invention relates to the isolation or extraction of exosomes.

Transfected T-cells and T-cell receptors for use in immunotherapy against cancers

Disclosed are T-cell receptors (TCRs) binding to tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) for targeting cancer cells, T-cells expressing same, methods for producing same, and methods for treating cancers using same. Disclosed are TCRs and their variants that bind to HLA class I or II molecules with a peptide, such as MAG-003 have the amino acid sequence of KVLEHVVRV (SEQ ID NO:1). The description further relates to peptides, proteins, nucleic acids, cells for use in immunotherapeutic methods, the immunotherapy of cancer, and tumor-associated T-cell peptide epitopes, alone or in combination with other tumor-associated peptides that can for example serve as active pharmaceutical ingredients of vaccine compositions that stimulate anti-tumor immune responses, or to stimulate T-cells ex vivo and transfer into patients. Peptides bound to molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC), or peptides as such, can also be targets of antibodies, soluble T-cell receptors, and other binding molecules.

20200017559 · 2020-01-16 ·

Disclosed is a novel recombinant protein UK 114 in stable polymer form for use in the treatment, diagnosis and prevention of malignant solid and systemic tumours.

BIFIDOBACTERIUM LONGUM ABLE TO BENEFICIALLY MODULATE IMMUNE RESPONSE TO RESPIRATORY VIRUS INFECTION

Bifidobacterium longum strains and cell wall fractions isolated from Bifidobacterium longum strains are useful in the prophylaxis or treatment of a respiratory viral infection in a subject. They are also useful in the prophylaxis of a secondary bacterial infection associated with a respiratory viral infection in a subject, especially a subject who is susceptible to respiratory infections.

Method and composition comprising detoxified lipopolysaccharide and lipoteichoic acid for preventing or inhibiting formation of biofilm

Provided is a novel bacterial strain Bacteroides vulgatus MGM001 (Bacteroides vulgatus MGM001) and its use. The LPS from the strain of the subject matter has cytotoxicity weaker than the conventional ones and shows synergistic effect on the inhibition of biofilm formation when used in combination with LTA.

20190388479 · 2019-12-26 · ·

Provided are vesicles derived from bacteria belonging to the genus Micrococcus, a composition and a use thereof, wherein the vesicles and the composition comprising the same may be effectively used for the development of a method of diagnosing gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, bladder cancer, myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, variant angina, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), dementia, or diabetes.

GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISMS FOR PRODUCING PSYCHOTROPIC ALKALOIDS

This disclosure provides genetically engineered organisms with genetic modifications that are useful for producing desirable alkaloids. This disclosure also provides methods of making genetically engineered organisms that can produce desirable alkaloids. The organisms described herein produce alkaloids in amounts beyond that produced from comparable wild-type organisms. In certain embodiments, the genetically engineered organisms are fungi from the Basidiomycota division.
