Abrégé
As advanced cancer has poor prognosis, its detection and treatment at the earliest stages is critical to increase cancer survival rate. Therefore, elucidating the determinants of the intra-lesion immune reaction during cancer's developments is critical for moving into precision medicine and immunotherapy-based cancer prevention. Adaptive immune response within tumors was shown to be the strongest at the earliest stage of carcinoma. Thus, the inventors hypothesized that the immune microenvironment and adaptive immunity were first established at early stage of lung carcinogenesis. Here they identified changes in the tumor molecular profile and its microenvironment during the successive steps of lung squamous carcinogenesis, using gene expression profiling and multispectral imaging. A unique and invaluable dataset of (9) morphological stages of development was analyzed, including (122) well-annotated biopsies from (77) patients. In particular, the inventors show that immune activation and immune escape occur before tumor invasion, and that immunosuppressive cytokines and checkpoint receptors immune escape mechanisms are concomitant with anti-tumor immunity in high-grade dysplasia. Thus, the present invention relates to methods of predicting and preventing cancer in subjects having premalignant lesions.

Despite the notion that human CD8+ T cells are the final mediators of autoimmune β-cell destruction in type 1 diabetes (TID), none of their target epitopes has been demonstrated to be naturally processed and presented by β cells. The inventors therefore performed an epitope discovery study combining HLA Class I peptidomics and transcriptomics strategies. Inflammatory cytokines increased β-cell peptide presentation in vitro, paralleling upregulation of HLA Class I expression. Peptide sources included known β-cell antigens and several insulin granule proteins. Secretogranin V (SCG5/7B2) was identified as a novel β-cell antigen, which was processed into HLA-A2- and HLA-A3-restricted epitopes recognized by circulating naïve CD8+ T cells in type 1 diabetic and healthy donors. HLA-A2-bound neo-epitopes were also represented and originated from an alternative SCG5-009 mRNA splice isoform. Accordingly, the present invention relates to antigenic peptides derived from secretogranin V and uses thereof for the diagnosis and treatment of T1D.

Abrégé
As advanced cancer has poor prognosis, its detection and treatment at the earliest stages is critical to increase cancer survival rate. Therefore, elucidating the determinants of the intra- lesion immune reaction during cancer's developments is critical for moving into precision medicine and immunotherapy-based cancer prevention. Adaptive immune response within tumors was shown to be the strongest at the earliest stage of carcinoma. Thus, the inventors hypothesized that the immune microenvironment and adaptive immunity were first established at early stage of lung carcinogenesis. Here they identified changes in the tumor molecular profile and its microenvironment during the successive steps of lung squamous carcinogenesis, using gene expression profiling and multispectral imaging. A unique and invaluable dataset of (9) morphological stages of development was analyzed, including (122) well-annotated biopsies from (77) patients. In particular, the inventors show that immune activation and immune escape occur before tumor invasion, and that immunosuppressive cytokines and checkpoint receptors immune escape mechanisms are concomitant with anti-tumor immunity in high-grade dysplasia. Thus, the present invention relates to methods of predicting and preventing cancer in subjects having premalignant lesions.

Abrégé
The invention is related to an inducible promoter for improved and regulated gene expression, useful in synthetic biology and metabolic engineering. In particular, the present invention relates to a nucleotide sequence comprising the regulatory regions of an erythritol- and erythrulose-inducible promoter in yeast and uses thereof in an expression system thus allowing an improved and regulated gene expression and production of gene product.
A separation system is described for separating analytes of interest in a fluid sample is described based on interaction with a stationary phase. The separation system comprises a fluidic channel and a stationary phase in the fluidic channel arranged for interacting with the sample, when the sample passes the fluidic channel. The separation system is adapted for inducing for the sample of interest in the fluidic channel at least part of its residence time in the fluidic channel Langmuir behavior and at least part of its residence time in the fluidic channel Anti-Langmuir behavior.
The application discloses serine and arginine rich splicing factor 2 (SRSF2) as an RNA epigenetic factor, more particularly as a reader capable of recognising 5-methylcytosine (mr5C) on RNA, such as mRNA. Various aspects make use of the interaction between SRSF2 and mr5C on RNA for the purposes of inter alia SRSF2 detection, phenotypic characterisation of SRSF2 mutations, discovery of SRSF2 modulating agents, and diagnosis or treatment of SRSF2-related diseases, such as neoplastic diseases.

METHOD FOR EVALUATING A RISK OF NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDER WITH A CHILD
A method is provided in order to evaluate a risk of child having a neurodevelopmental disorder. Firstly, a first and a second information are shown simultaneously to the child at two different places on a display screen (5). Then the first and second information are removed from the display screen (5) for a while and meanwhile movements of the eye of the child are tracked and recorded. Next, a third information is displayed on the display screen (5), at a location where the second information was previously displayed. This sequence is repeated a number of times. Next, a score for the child is established in function of the movements of his eye(s) as recorded while the first and second information were removed from the display screen (5). This score gives an indication of a risk of neurodevelopmental disorder with the child.
