Nanotherapy that prevents trained immunity and promotes tolerance

Authors

  • Willem JM Mulder

Abstract

Investigators at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York, USA reported a novel nanoimmunotherapy that targets myeloid cells in vivo in the November 2018 issue of the journal Immunity. Senior authors Drs. Jordi Ochando and Willem Mulder spearheaded an extensive effort in which this nanoimmunotherapy was applied to an experimental mouse model of organ transplantation.
