31st Annual Meeting and Associated Programs of the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC 2016) : part two

Background The immunological escape of tumors represents one of the main ob- stacles to the treatment of malignancies. The blockade of PD-1 or CTLA-4 receptors represented a milestone in the history of immunotherapy. However, immune checkpoint inhibitors seem to be effective in specific cohorts of patients. It has been proposed that their efficacy relies on the presence of an immunological response. Thus, we hypothesized that disruption of the PD-L1/PD-1 axis would synergize with our oncolytic vaccine platform PeptiCRAd. Methods We used murine B16OVA in vivo tumor models and flow cytometry analysis to investigate the immunological background. Results First, we found that high-burden B16OVA tumors were refractory to combination immunotherapy. However, with a more aggressive schedule, tumors with a lower burden were more susceptible to the combination of PeptiCRAd and PD-L1 blockade. The therapy signifi- cantly increased the median survival of mice (Fig. 7). Interestingly, the reduced growth of contralaterally injected B16F10 cells sug- gested the presence of a long lasting immunological memory also against non-targeted antigens. Concerning the functional state of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), we found that all the immune therapies would enhance the percentage of activated (PD-1pos TIM- 3neg) T lymphocytes and reduce the amount of exhausted (PD-1pos TIM-3pos) cells compared to placebo. As expected, we found that PeptiCRAd monotherapy could increase the number of antigen spe- cific CD8+ T cells compared to other treatments. However, only the combination with PD-L1 blockade could significantly increase the ra- tio between activated and exhausted pentamer positive cells (p= 0.0058), suggesting that by disrupting the PD-1/PD-L1 axis we could decrease the amount of dysfunctional antigen specific T cells. We ob- served that the anatomical location deeply influenced the state of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes. In fact, TIM-3 expression was in- creased by 2 fold on TILs compared to splenic and lymphoid T cells. In the CD8+ compartment, the expression of PD-1 on the surface seemed to be restricted to the tumor micro-environment, while CD4 + T cells had a high expression of PD-1 also in lymphoid organs. Interestingly, we found that the levels of PD-1 were significantly higher on CD8+ T cells than on CD4+ T cells into the tumor micro- environment (p < 0.0001). Conclusions In conclusion, we demonstrated that the efficacy of immune check- point inhibitors might be strongly enhanced by their combination with cancer vaccines. PeptiCRAd was able to increase the number of antigen-specific T cells and PD-L1 blockade prevented their exhaus- tion, resulting in long-lasting immunological memory and increased median survival

Implementation of The Collaborative Funding Model for Sheep Fattening Farming at The Riungmukti Multipurpose Cooperative Kalapanunggal District, Sukabumi Regency, West Java

Sheep farming is an important income for rural communities. The fattening segment has better business prospects than breeding. This conducive business opportunity cannot be accessed bysheep farmerss, due to limited financial capital for purchasing fattening sheep. Community service activities aimed to provide funds to finance fattening by sheep farmers, using a crowdfunding system. Implementation of activities using the territorial mapping method, counseling and assistance to members and administrators of the Riungmukti Multipurpose Cooperative, Kalapanunggal District, Sukabumi, West Java. The program evaluation showed that crowdfunding system by strengthening the Ecobis 2-3-5 profit sharing pattern received appreciation from the majority of sheep farmers and investors. The Ecobis 2-3-5 pattern provides financial feasibility for investors, with a rate of return on investment value added of 11.42 percent/year, greater than interest on bank savings, deposits and interest on people's business credit loans (KUR). Cooperative program operational costs can be covered, as well as increasing employment and business opportunities for farmers. Increasing program performance can be done through investment promotions to attract investors, improving services to farmers, especially the movement to plant forage on empty and/or unproductive land with the addition of legume plants. It is necessary to run monthly communication forums between farmers for business motivation, exchange experiences, and increase the capacity for adopting science and technology

Effects of once-daily suckling on the postpartum reproductive performance of the local beef and crossbred cattle in Malaysia (Kesan penyusuan sekali sehari terhadap prestasi pembiakan selepas beranak bagi lembu pedaging tempatan dan kacukan di Malaysia) J. A. Johari*, S. Adnan**, M. O. Ariff***, M. I. Sukri* and E. Daud* Key words: once-daily suckling, postpartum ovarian activity, conception rates, Kedah-Kelantan cattle, KK crossbred Abstrak Kesan penyusuan sekali sehari terhadap prestasi pembiakan selepas beranak 56 ekor lembu betina Kedah-Kelantan (KK) dan kacukannya (Brahman-KK, Hereford-KK dan Friesian-KK) telah dikaji secara pencerapan klinikal dan radioimunocerakinan progesteron. Menghadkan tempoh menyusu kepada sekali sehari selama 30-45 minit nyata dapat memendekkan (p &lt;0.01) tempoh dari masa beranak hingga pengovulan pertama bagi KK dan kacukannya. Tempoh dari beranak hingga kebuntingan nyata lebih pendek (p &lt;0.01) bagi lembu yang menyusukan anak sekali sehari berbanding dengan lembu yang menyusukan anak secara biasa. Kadar kebuntingan nyata lebih tinggi (p &lt;0.05) pada lembu yang menyusukan anak sekali sehari berbanding dengan yang menyusukan anak secara biasa. Pertambahan berat badan harian dari lahir hingga cerai susu pada umur 6 bulan ialah 353.50 g bagi penyusuan biasa dan 333.50 g bagi penyusuan sekali sehari. Kajian ini menunjukkan bahawa menghadkan tempoh menyusu kepada sekali sehari nyata dapat meningkatkan prestasi pembiakan selepas beranak bagi lembu tempatan tanpa menjejaskan prestasi pertumbuhan anaknya. Abstract The effects of once-daily suckling on the postpartum reproductive performance of 56 Kedah-Kelantan (KK) cattle and its crossbred cows (Brahman-KK, Hereford-KK and Friesian-KK) were studied using clinical observation and progesterone radioimmunoassay. Restricting the suckling to once-daily for 30-45 min reduced significantly (p &lt;0.01) the interval from calving to first ovulation in KK and KK crossbred cows. The calving-to-conception interval was significantly (p &lt;0.01) shorter in once-daily suckled cows than in normal suckled cows, and the conception rate was significantly (p &lt;0.05) higher in the former than in the later group. The average daily gain of the calves from birth to weaning at 6 months old was 353.50 g in normal suckling group and 333.50 g in once-daily suckling group. The study showed that restricted suckling significantly improved the postpartum reproductive performance of the local beef cattle without affecting the growth performance of their calves

Improving machining performance using alumina powder-added dielectric during electrical discharge machining (EDM)

Alumina powder was added to dielectric fluid during Electrical discharge machining (EDM) of AISI 304 steel. The main machining parameters of current (A), tool diameter (mm) and powder concentration (g/L) were chosen to determine the EDM machining characteristics of material removal rate (MRR), tool wear rate (TWR) and surface roughness (Ra). This work adopted two-level full factorial experiments. The significant factors that affect the MRR and tool TWR are current, tool diameter and powder concentration. The MRR increases when the current and tool diameter are higher. The presence of powder concentration also increases the MRR. The higher current used and the presence of powder concentration increase the TWR. Meanwhile, a smaller tool diameter gives higher value of TWR. Current and powder concentration are the significant factors to determine the surface roughness of work surfaces. Higher current applied gives high surface roughness, but higher powder concentration gives improved surface finish
