	abstract = {Tobacco smoking generates airway inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and its involvement in the development of lung cancer is still among the leading causes of early death. Therefore, we aimed to have a better understanding of the disbalance in immunoregulation in chronic inflammatory conditions in smoker subjects with stable COPD (stCOPD), exacerbating COPD (exCOPD), or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Smoker controls without chronic illness were recruited as controls. Through extensive mapping of single cells, surface receptor quantification was achieved by single-cell mass cytometry (CyTOF) with 29 antibodies. The CyTOF characterized 14 main immune subsets such as CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+, CD4-/CD8-, and γ/δ T cells and other subsets such as CD4+ or CD8+ NKT cells, NK cells, B cells, plasmablasts, monocytes, CD11cdim, mDCs, and pDCs. The CD4+ central memory (CM) T cells (CD4+/CD45RA-/CD45RO+/CD197+) and CD4+ effector memory (EM) T cells (CD4+/CD45RA-/CD45RO+/CD197-) were FACS-sorted for RNA-Seq analysis. Plasma samples were assayed by Luminex MAGPIX® for the quantitative measurement of 17 soluble immuno-oncology mediators (BTLA, CD28, CD80, CD27, CD40, CD86, CTLA-4, GITR, GITRL, HVEM, ICOS, LAG-3, PD-1, PD-L1, PD-L2, TIM-3, TLR-2) in the four studied groups.Our focus was on T-cell-dependent differences in COPD and NSCLC, where peripheral CD4+ central memory and CD4+ effector memory cells showed a significant reduction in exCOPD and CD4+ CM showed elevation in NSCLC. The transcriptome analysis delineated a perfect correlation of differentially expressed genes between exacerbating COPD and NSCLC-derived peripheral CD4+ CM or CD4+ EM cells. The measurement of 17 immuno-oncology soluble mediators revealed a disease-associated phenotype in the peripheral blood of stCOPD, exCOPD, and NSCLC patients.The applied single-cell mass cytometry, the whole transcriptome profiling of peripheral CD4+ memory cells, and the quantification of 17 plasma mediators provided complex data that may contribute to the understanding of the disbalance in immune homeostasis generated or sustained by tobacco smoking in COPD and NSCLC.},

The estrones were selected for additional experiments based on their outstanding cell growth-inhibiting activities. Both compounds increased hypodiploid populations of breast cancer cells, and 16AABE elicited cell cycle disturbance as evidenced by flow cytometry. The two analogs substantially increased the rate of tubulin polymerization in vitro. 16AABE and 16BABE inhibited breast cancer cells’ migration and invasive ability, as evidenced by wound healing and Boyden chamber assays. Since both estrone analogs exerted remarkable estrogenic activities, as documented by a luciferase reporter gene assay, they can be considered as promising drug candidates for hormone-independent malignancies.},

	abstract = {Microglia cells, the immune cells residing in the brain, express immune regulatory molecules that have a central role in the manifestation of age-related brain characteristics. Our hypothesis suggests that galectin-1, an anti-inflammatory member of the beta-galactoside-binding lectin family, regulates microglia and neuroinflammation in the aging brain. Through our in-silico analysis, we discovered a subcluster of microglia in the aged mouse brain that exhibited increased expression of galectin-1 mRNA. In our Western blotting experiments, we observed a decrease in galectin-1 protein content in our rat primary cortical cultures over time. Additionally, we found that the presence of lipopolysaccharide, an immune activator, significantly increased the expression of galectin-1 protein in microglial cells. Utilizing flow cytometry, we determined that a portion of the galectin-1 protein was localized on the surface of the microglial cells. As cultivation time increased, we observed a decrease in the expression of activation-coupled molecules in microglial cells, indicating cellular exhaustion. In our mixed rat primary cortical cell cultures, we noted a transition of amoeboid microglial cells labeled with OX42(CD11b/c) to a ramified, branched phenotype during extended cultivation, accompanied by a complete disappearance of galectin-1 expression. By analyzing the transcriptome of a distinct microglial subpopulation in an animal model of aging, we established a correlation between chronological aging and galectin-1 expression. Furthermore, our in vitro study demonstrated that galectin-1 expression is associated with the functional activation state of microglial cells exhibiting specific amoeboid morphological characteristics. Based on our findings, we identify galectin-1 as a marker for microglia activation in the context of aging.},

	abstract = {The advent of immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatments. However, the application of immune checkpoint inhibitors may entail severe side effects, with the risk of therapeutic resistance. The generation of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells or CAR-NK cells requires specialized molecular laboratories, is costly, and is difficult to adapt to the rapidly growing number of cancer patients. To provide a simpler but effective immune therapy, a whole-cell tumor vaccine protocol was established based on ultraviolet C (UCV)-irradiated 4T1 triple-negative breast cancer cells. The apoptosis of tumor cells after UVC irradiation was verified using resazurin and Annexin V/propidium iodide flow cytometric assays. Protective immunity was achieved in immunized BALB/c mice, showing partial remission. Adoptive transfer of splenocytes or plasma from the mice in remission showed a protective effect in the naive BALB/c mice that received a living 4T1 tumor cell injection. 4T1-specific IgG antibodies were recorded in the plasma of the mice following immunization with the whole-cell vaccine. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) and oligonucleotide 2006 (ODN2006) adjuvants were used for the transfer of splenocytes from C57BL/6 mice into cyclophosphamide-treated BALB/c mice, resulting in prolonged survival, reduced tumor growth, and remission in 33% of the cases, without the development of the graft-versus-host disease. Our approach offers a simple, cost-effective whole-cell vaccine protocol that can be administered to immunocompetent healthy organisms. The plasma or the adoptive transfer of HLA-matching immunized donor-derived leukocytes could be used as an immune cell therapy for cancer patients.},

Both agents exerted a more pronounced cell growth inhibitory action than the reference agent cisplatin, as determined by the MTT assay. Tumor selectivity was assessed using non-cancerous fibroblast cells. Hybrids 1 and 2 induced changes in cell morphology and membrane integrity in A2780 cells, as evidenced by Hoechst 33258–propidium iodide fluorescent staining. Cell cycle analysis by flow cytometry revealed substantial changes in the distribution of A2780 ovarian cancer cells, with an increased rate in the subG1 and G2/M phases, at the expense of the G1 cell population. Moreover, the tested molecules accelerated tubulin polymerization in a cell-free in vitro system. The antimetastatic properties of both tested compounds were investigated by wound healing and Boyden chamber assays after 24 and 48 h of incubation. Treatment with 1 and 2 resulted in time- and concentration-dependent inhibition of migration and invasion of A2780 cancer cells. These results support that the tested agents may be worth of further investigation as promising anticancer drug candidates.},
