De novo ectopic lymphoid tissue formation is known to occur in certain disease and inflammatory settings. After an effective vaccination with dendritic cells (DC) charged with melanoma apoptotic/necrotic cells (Apo/Nec), a subcutaneous tertiary lymphoid structure was organized, where retained vaccine cells interacted with recruited inflammatory and T cells. In this work we report for the first time the recruitment of two morphologically different CD207(+) cells to vaccination site. The time-course behavior of CD207(+) cells was reciprocal between vaccination site and draining lymph nodes (DLNs). After 6-10 days, CD207(+) cells localized at the paracortical region of DLNs, in close contact with T cell population. DLNs were enriched in a peculiar MHCII(+) CD11c((-)) CD207(+) population, whose role remains to be determined. Whether CD207(+) cells migration to the vaccination site can be associated with a differential anti-tumoral response remains as an open and exciting question.

Introduction: Interim analysis of the long-term safety and effectiveness of canakinumab, at a patient level, in the mevalonate kinase deficiency/hyperimmunoglobulin-D syndrome (MKD/HIDS) cohort of the RELIANCE registry.
Methods: From June 2018, the RELIANCE registry enrolled paediatric (aged ≥ 2 years) and adult patients (aged ≥ 18 years) with MKD/HIDS who were receiving canakinumab as part of their routine medical care. Safety, physician- and patient-reported measures of disease activity and dosing patterns were evaluated at baseline and every 6 months until end-of-study visit.

Introduction: Kentucky has the highest all-site cancer incidence and death rate in the US. In 2021, the University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center convened a steering committee to conduct a statewide community cancer needs assessment (CNA). The goal of the final CNA phase was to gather community input on prioritizing Kentucky's cancer-related needs and ways to address them.

Background: We have previously developed a candidate therapeutic HPV DNA vaccine (pBI-11) encoding mycobacteria heat shock protein 70 linked to HPV16/18 E6/E7 proteins for the control of advanced HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancer (NCT05799144). While naked DNA vaccines are readily produced, stable, and well tolerated, their potency is limited by the delivery efficiency. Here we compared three different IM delivery strategies, including intramuscular (IM) injection, either with a needle alone or with electroporation at the injection site, and a needle-free injection system (NFIS), for their ability to elicit gene expression and to improve the potency of pBI-11 DNA vaccine.

Background: Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) infections are a cause of significant morbidity and mortality in children and the elderly. Despite the clinical burden of disease, very little is known about the inter- and intra-seasonal genomic variability of RSV. Furthermore, the recent approval of vaccines and monoclonal antibody therapies will likely lead to higher selective pressure on RSV.
