18F-FDG PET/CT plays an increasingly pivotal role in the staging and post-treatment monitoring of high-risk melanoma patients, augmented by the introduction of therapies, including tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), that have novel modes of action that challenge conventional response assessment. Simultaneously...

COVID 19 is a disease caused by a novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV2 originated in China most probably of Bat origin. Multiepitopes vaccine would be useful in eliminating SARS-CoV2 infections as asymptomatic patients are in large numbers. In response to this, we utilized bioinformatic tools to develop an efficient vaccine candidate against SARS-CoV2. The...

Background Immunological characteristics of COVID-19 show pathological hyperinflammation associated with lymphopenia and dysfunctional T cell responses. These features provide a rationale for restoring functional T cell immunity in COVID-19 patients by adoptive transfer of SARS-CoV-2 specific T cells. Methods To generate SARS-CoV-2 specific T cells...
