Overview

Jean-Philippe Girard is affiliated with the Federal University of Toulouse Midi-Pyrénées in France. Their research primarily focuses on immunology, microbiology, and medicine, with significant contributions in subfields such as immunology, surgery, molecular biology, oncology, and cell biology.

The main topics covered by their work include:

  • IL-33, ST2, and ILC Pathways
  • Eosinophilic Esophagitis
  • Immune Cell Function and Interaction
  • Cancer Immunotherapy and Biomarkers
  • Immunotherapy and Immune Responses
  • Immune cells in cancer
  • Complement system in diseases

Girard has published extensively, with some notable recent papers including:

  • Interleukin-33 (IL-33): A critical review of its biology and the mechanisms involved in its release as a potent extracellular cytokine, 2022, Cytokine
  • Tumor-associated high endothelial venules mediate lymphocyte entry into tumors and predict response to PD-1 plus CTLA-4 combination immunotherapy, 2022, Cancer Cell
  • High endothelial venules (HEVs) in immunity, inflammation and cancer, 2021, Angiogenesis
  • A microbiota-modulated checkpoint directs immunosuppressive intestinal T cells into cancers, 2023, Science
  • Caspase-1-driven neutrophil pyroptosis and its role in host susceptibility to Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 2022, PLoS Pathogens

Their frequent coauthors include Elisabeth Bellard, Lucas Blanchard, Emma Lefrançais, Nathalie Ortéga, and Estefania Vina. These collaborations have contributed to advancing research in relevant fields and topics related to immune response mechanisms and cancer immunotherapy.

Jean-Philippe Girard's work has appeared in various publication venues, among which the most frequent are:

  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Revue française d'allergologie
  • Cytokine
  • Cancer Cell
  • Angiogenesis

Their research encompasses complex immune system pathways and the interaction between immune cells and diseases such as cancer and eosinophilic conditions. The focus on IL-33 and related pathways highlights a specialized interest in cytokine biology and immune regulation mechanisms.
