Adapter Chimeric Antigen Receptor (AdCAR)-Engineered NK-92 Cells for the Multiplex Targeting of Bone Metastases
2021
Simple Summary Metastatic disease remains one of the biggest challenges for tumor therapy. The aim of our study was the preclinical evaluation of adapter chimeric antigen receptor (AdCAR)-engineered NK-92 cell efficacy as a possible treatment strategy for various types of bone metastatic cancers. We confirmed that AdCAR NK-92 cells successfully induces tumor cell lysis in bone metastasis cell lines derived from mammary, renal cell and colorectal carcinoma as well as melanoma in a specific and controllable manner, thus, establishing a potent cellular product with universal applicability and quick clinical translation potential for the treatment of solid tumors, including metastases.

AlkAniline-Seq: Profiling of m7 G and m3 C RNA Modifications at Single Nucleotide Resolution.
2018
RNA modifications play essential roles in gene expression regulation. Only seven out of >150 known RNA modifications are detectable transcriptome-wide by deep sequencing. Here we describe a new principle of RNAseq library preparation, which relies on a chemistry based positive enrichment of reads in the resulting libraries, and therefore leads to unprecedented signal-to-noise ratios. The proposed approach eschews conventional RNA sequencing chemistry and rather exploits the generation of abasic sites and subsequent aniline cleavage. The newly generated 5'-phosphates are used as unique entry for ligation of an adapter in library preparation. This positive selection, embodied in the AlkAnilin…
Middleware with QoS Support to Control Intelligent Systems
2008
This paper presents the architecture of a middleware for control component-based distributed systems. The fundamental idea underlying this architecture is the use of a hierarchical communications structure called "logical namespace tree" and a structured set of control processes interconnected, called "logical sensors graph". This architecture is named frame sensor adapter control (FSA-Ctrl). The aim of FSA-Ctrl is to provide a simple interface to specify the control actions and ensure a communication with some specified QoS parameters restrictions. In this architecture both systems, communication and control, manages the QoS policies. The communication system is based on the data distribut…
Identification of an LPS-Induced Chemo-Attractive Peptide from Ciona robusta
2020
Background: Previously published work has demonstrated that the LPS injection of Ciona robusta leads to the overexpression of a truncated form of an immune-related mRNA (C8short) by means of Ciona robusta (CR) alternative polyadenylation (APA) (CR-APA). Methods: The 3D structure of the C8short-derived Ciona robusta chemo-attractive peptide (CrCP) was evaluated by homology modeling. The biological activity of the CrCP was studied in vitro using a primary human dermal cell line (HuDe). Real-Time PCR was used to investigate the expression levels of genes involved in cell motility.
