Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

<h2>Summary</h2> Given recent leverage of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) as a potent vaccination platform, we investigated whether forced degradation of an expressed experimental antigen fused to small degron sequences could prime potent antitumoral responses. Retrovirally gene-engineered MSCs were evaluated for their <i>in-vitro</i> antigen presentation capacity, nature of generated peptide repertoire and therapeutic potency in syngeneic immunocompetent mice with pre-established solid T cell lymphoma. Despite lack of noticeable changes in gene expression, MSC-UBvR-OVA vaccination triggered potent T cell activation which can be attributable to the enriched cell surface presentation of OVA-derived peptides added to elevated mitochondrial reactive oxidative species (ROS) production, the latter being associated with efficient antigen processing. Where MSC-UBvR-OVA vaccination successfully controlled tumor growth in cancer-bearing mice, the effect is further enhanced using tranylcypromine-stimulated MSCs and anti-PD-1 combination. Such anti-tumoral response relies on efferocytosis by endogenous phagocytes. Altogether, UBvR facilitated forced antigen degradation represents a plausible modality for future development of tumor antigen-expressing MSC-based vaccine.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
