«This
approach will hopefully lead to better
mechanistic predictive
modeling of response and future design of therapies that further take advantage of how the immune system recognizes tumors.»
Using this «Ribotag»
approach tissue - specific changes under DR have been measured in muscle, fat, gut, heart, neurons, germline and malpighian tubules, showing a highly tissue specific response upon DR.. We are developing
mechanistic models of gene expression regulation and conducting comprehensive bioinformatics analyses on UTRs, promoters and the coding sequences of various elements of differentially regulated genes.
«Long - term projections of the type presented here are always crude caricatures but I like this study because it does take a more
mechanistic approach based on the known habitat requirements of the species rather than using a more traditional and simplistic thermal envelope
model,» he said.
Hypothesis driven
approaches to vaccinology can utilise the knowledge gained from
mechanistic mouse
models and our molecular understanding of intrinsic defects to human cells.5 However, caution is required when extrapolating data from murine
models, as there are substantial differences between immune ageing in mice and humans.6 Nevertheless,
model systems and ex vivo analyses of molecular alterations in aged human cells have identified multiple changes in the vaccination response with age and the aged immune system in general.
The systems biology
approach often involves the development of
mechanistic models, such as the reconstruction of dynamic systems from the quantitative properties of their elementary building blocks.
