"immune modulation" refers to the process of adjusting or changing the body's immune response. It involves techniques or treatments that help regulate or balance the immune system to either enhance or suppress its activity, depending on the specific needs of the individual.
Full definition
Ongoing projects are directed toward understanding the role that the alpha2 beta1 integrin plays
in immune modulation in the tumor microenvironment.
Nohla is also pursuing multiple preclinical and discovery programs focused on CAR progenitor and NK cell therapies, genetically modified stem cells for gene therapy and editing, and cell therapies
for immune modulation and induction.
IDO1 has been implicated in
immune modulation through its ability to limit T cell function and engage mechanisms of immune tolerance, and as such preventing tumor rejection.
Taken together, these results strongly support a role for either a direct (T cell phenotype) or indirect (DC phenotype) mechanism
of immune modulation directed by MSC.
Major thematic questions of the lab include: 1) What are the endogenous and exogenous noncoding RNA species that contribute to
innate immune modulation and how are these functions mediated?
Ten U.S. patents issued or pending include Dr. Prendergast as an inventor in this important new arena of
immune modulation emerging as pivotal in human cancer, autoimmunity, chronic viral infection and other chronic inflammatory conditions.
Peptide therapy encompasses numerous different drugs with varied effects, ranging
from immune modulation and tissue repair to fat loss and muscle building.
She lectures all over the world and trains physicians in integrative therapies including the application of mistletoe therapy, and consults with researchers on projects
involving immune modulation via mistletoe, hyperthermia and the ketogenic diet.
Beta carotene and selenium deficiencies, two of the most common nutrient deficiencies, are important due to their dual function as nutrients necessary
for immune modulation and as antioxidants.
More recent projects include understanding how blood transfusion affects the immune system and modulates immune responses in transfusion recipients, including the role extracellular vesicles play
in immune modulation.
The scientists hypothesize that the IVIg acts as an immune modulator, and
this immune modulation is responsible for the reductions in amyloid pathology.
Effects of Rubus coreanus byproducts on intestinal microbiota and
the immune modulation — Da Yoon Yu — Asian - Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences (AJAS)
These results raise the hope that
immune modulation may be enlisted in the treatment of this deadly disease.
These microbes control many vital operations and are responsible for synthesis of neuroactive and nutritional compounds, for
immune modulation, and for inflammatory signaling.
At doses higher than
the immune modulation doses, it is shown to reduce the body's set point and cause significant weight loss.
These nutrients help the body utilize minerals more effectively and play an important role in
immune modulation.
L - arginine is a semi-essential amino acid involved in numerous areas of human biochemistry, including ammonia detoxification, hormone secretion, and
immune modulation.
Noting the requirement for oxytocin in normal mammalian wound healing processes [22]--[24], we hypothesized that
the immune modulation conferred by L. reuteri may originate in the hypothalamic tract.
Probiotic lactobacilli are believed to improve urogenital health in women through
immune modulation, pathogen displacement, and creation of a niche less favorable for pathogenic bacterial proliferation.
