Project description:Conventional natural killer (NK)-based anticancer immunotherapy has a limitation in that a culture period of approximately 2 weeks is required to increase the number and activity of NK cells. In addition, the anticancer activity of NK cells is closely associated with their mitochondrial function. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether the NK-anticancer activity increased after transferring allogeneic mitochondria into NK cells. Using this method, NK cells with enhanced anticancer activity can be produced without in vitro culture and can be used for anticancer treatment.

Project description:While T cell-based immunotherapies have shown promising clinical responses, current cancer treatments are restricted to autologous cellular products due to the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) by allogeneic cell transfer. Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are ideal cell carriers for developing off-the-shelf allogeneic cellular therapy because they are powerful immune cells targeting a broad range of cancers without causing GvHD. However, current immunotherapies using iNKT cells are impeded by their extremely low number in cancer patients. In this study, we aimed to overcome this limitation by generating a large number of iNKT cells through TCR engineering of human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and differentiation of HSCs to iNKT cells in an in vitro cultured system. Additionally, Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) engineering and the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing tool were utilized to enhance the tumor killing efficacy of iNKT cells and eliminate HLA molecules on their surface, making the cellular product suitable for cancer therapy and allogeneic adoptive transfer. Our results demonstrated successful generation of the promising off-the-shelf B cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-CAR engineered iNKT cells for treating multiple myeloma, and the same strategy will be applied to multiple cellular products for treating other cancers.

Project description:Background: Antimalarials have anticancer potential. Results: We have systematically tested five distinct antimalaria drugs in a panel of cancer cell lines. Conclusion: Three antimalarial classes display potent antiproliferative activity, and their potency is correlated with cancer cell gene expression patterns. Significance: We confirm and extend anticancer potential of these antimalarials and we discuss their therapeutic potential based on clinical data. Key words: Malaria, Anticancer drug, Drug Discovery, Genomics, Gene Expression, Bioinformatics, Cancer AffymetrixM-BM-. HG-U133 Plus 2.0 mRNA expression arrays were used to determine the expression. CEL result files were pre-processed using the RMA (Irizarry et al, 2003) algorithm. This microarray analysis was performed for 91 cell lines.

Project description:This experiment investigates differences in expression of circulating miRNAs between responders and non-responders to treatment of rheumatoid arthritis with allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells. The ability to stratify patients based on their response to treatment has been transformational in a number of disease areas, and it is anticipated that this will also be the case for cell-based therapies. In line with this, the goal of this study was to identify miRNA biomarkers that could be used to predict response to treatment of rheumatoid arthritis with allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells. Promising candidates from the microarrays were validated with quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR.

Project description:Drug resistance, caused by complex and redundant mechanisms, is a major obstacle in cancer treatment, especially in liver and kidney cancers. Combinational therapy of miRNAs, which concurrently target multiple pathways, with anticancer drugs represent a new strategy to improve the drug response. By a systems approach, we identified that miR-27b, a miRNA deleted in liver and kidney cancers, sensitizes cancer cells to a broad spectrum of anticancer drugs in vitro and in vivo. Two samples transfected with nontarget miRNA control or miR-27b mimics followed by 48 hours doxorubicin treatment

Project description:Primary human cells cultured in 3D organoid format have great promise as potential regenerative cellular therapies, but their immunogenicity has not yet been fully characterized. In this study, we use in vitro co-cultures and in vivo humanized mouse experimental models to examine the human immune response to autologous and allogeneic primary cholangiocyte organoids (PCOs). Our data demonstrate that PCOs upregulate the expression of HLA-I and HLA-II in inflammatory conditions. The immune response to allogeneic PCOs is driven by both HLA-I and HLA-II and is substantially ameliorated by donor-recipient HLA matching. Autologous PCOs induce a low-level immune infiltration into the graft site, while allogeneic cells display evolving stages of immune rejection in vivo. Our findings have important implications for the design and clinical translation of autologous and allogeneic organoid cellular therapies.

Project description:Simvastatin has been widely used for treatment of hypercholesterolemia due to its ability to inhibit HMG-CoA reductase, the rate limiting enzyme of de novo cholesterol synthesis via mevalonate pathway. Its inhibitory action causes also depletion of pathway intermediates, farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) and geranyl-geranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP), which are inevitable for proper targeting of small GTPases (e.g. Ras proteins) to their site of action. We profiled by array the gene expression of MIA PaCa-2 cells treated with simvastatin, FPP, GGPP and their combinations. The inhibitory effect of statins on GFP-K-Ras protein trafficking were partially prevented by addition of the mevalonate pathway intermediates. We conclude that the anticancer effect of simvastatin is to a large extent mediated through isoprenoid intermediates of the mevalonate pathway.

Project description:The aim of this study is to assess the Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) efficacy in the prevention of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) complications and particularly Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD).
The hypothesis of this study is that allogeneic FMT may improve outcomes of these patients.
