    Abstract Manual segmentation poses a time-consuming challenge for disease quantification, therapy evaluation, treatment planning, and outcome prediction. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) hold promise in accurately identifying tumor locations and boundaries in PET scans. However, a major hurdle is the extensive amount of supervised and annotated data necessary for training. To overcome this limitation, this study explores semi-supervised approaches utilizing unlabeled data, specifically focusing on PET images of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) obtained from two centers. We considered 2-[

    Abstract Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) commonly presents at advanced stage. We previously reported systemic treatment uptake in stage IV NSCLC climbing from 55% (2009-2012) to 62% (2015-2017). Since then, first-line immunotherapy and 2nd/3rd generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have emerged as standards of care. We explored whether treatment rates continued to rise and studied outcomes.
    Methods: We reviewed all cases of de novo stage IIIB/IIIC/IV NSCLC seen in out-patient medical oncology consultation at our institution between 2009-2012 (cohort A), 2015-2017 (cohort B), and June-December 2018 (cohort C). We compared rates of systemic treatment, molecular testing, targeted therapy, and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) use. We compared survival in the overall, treated/untreated, younger and elderly population in cohort A vs. cohort B + C (=cohort D).
    Results: Cohorts A, B, and C included 528, 463, and 93 patients, respectively. Overall, 66% received any systemic therapy in cohort C, compared to 62% in cohort B and 55% in cohort A. Across three time periods, first-line chemotherapy rates fell (93, 76, 46%) while rates of first-line targeted therapy (5, 16, 15%) and ICI (0, 2, 36%) rose. Among molecular subtypes, first-line targeted treatment in EGFR-positive patients (63, 94, 100%) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive patients (0, 91, 100%) rose. Survival improved in all subgroups in cohort D vs. cohort A, except for patients ≥ 70 years and the untreated population.
    Conclusions: Systemic treatment rose across three time periods, reflecting the introduction of rapid diagnostic pathways, reflex molecular testing, ICI, and targeted therapies. Survival outcomes of advanced NSCLC patients have significantly improved.

    Abstract More than 107 pathogenic variations were identified in Keratin 14 gene (KRT14) in patients affected by epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS), a rare skin disease with still no curative treatment. Disease models as human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are promising tool for further advance the knowledge about this disorder and accelerate therapies development. Here, two hiPSC lines were reprogrammed from skin fibroblasts of two EBS patients carrying mutations within KRT14 by using CytoTune®Sendai virus. These iPSCs display pluripotent cell morphology, pluripotent markers expression, and the capability to differentiate into the three germ layers.

    Abstract Heterozygous mutations within Keratin 5 (KRT5) are common genetic causes of epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS), a skin fragility disorder characterized by blisters, which appear after minor trauma. Using CytoTune®Sendai virus, we generated three human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from three EBS patients carrying respectively the single heterozygous mutations in KRT5, c.449 T > C, c.980 T > C, and c.608 T > C. All lines display normal karyotype, expressed high levels of pluripotent markers, and can differentiate into derivatives of the three germ layers. These iPSCs are helpful for a better understanding of the EBS pathogenesis and developing novel therapeutic approaches.

    Abstract Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are a valuable tool for investigating complex cellular and molecular events that occur in several human diseases. Importantly, the ability to differentiate hiPSCs into any human cell type provides a unique way for investigating disease mechanisms such as complex mental health diseases. The in vitro transformation of human lymphocytes into lymphoblasts (LCLs) using the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) has been the main method for generating immortalized human cell lines for half a century. However, the derivation of iPSCs from LCLs has emerged as an alternative source from which these cell lines can be generated. We show that iPSCs derived from LCLs using the Sendai virus procedure can be successfully differentiated into cardiomyocytes, neurons, and myotubes that express neuron- and myocyte-specific markers. We further show that these cardiac and neuronal cells are functional and generate action potentials that are required for cell excitability. We conclude that the ability to differentiate LCLs into neurons and myocytes will increase the use of LCLs in the future as a potential source of cells for modelling a number of diseases.

    Abstract Introduction: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) prognosis is poor. Immunotherapies to enhance the antibody-induced natural killer (NK) cell antitumor activity are emerging for TNBC that is frequently immunogenic. The aspartic protease cathepsin D (cath-D), a tumor cell-associated extracellular protein with protumor activity and a poor prognosis marker in TNBC, is a prime target for antibody-based therapy to induce NK cell-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). This study investigated whether Fc-engineered anti-cath-D antibodies trigger ADCC, their impact on antitumor efficacy and tumor-infiltrating NK cells, and their relevance for combinatory therapy in TNBC.
    Methods: Cath-D expression and localization in TNBC samples were evaluated by western blotting, immunofluorescence, and immunohistochemistry. The binding of human anti-cath-D F1M1 and Fc-engineered antibody variants, which enhance (F1M1-Fc
    Results: Cath-D expression on the TNBC cell surface could be exploited to induce ADCC. F1M1 Fc-variants recognized human and mouse cath-D. F1M1-Fc

    Abstract Human immortalized Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) lymphoblastoids cells line (LCLs) from a 26-year- old male affected by an adult form of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) disease and carrying 200 CTG repeats mutation in the blood was used to generate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using the Sendai virus expressing KLF4, OCT4, SOX2 and C-MYC. The resulting iPSCs were EBV free, expressed the pluripotency markers, could be differentiated into the three germ layers in vitro, had a normal karyotype, and retained the genetic DM1 mutation. This iPSC line could be useful for the investigation of DM1 mechanisms.
