451 Blockade of tumor cell-intrinsic PD-1 inhibits Merkel cell carcinoma growth

چکیده

Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) is a rare, but highly aggressive cancer of the skin. In MCC patients, inhibitors targeting programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) immune checkpoint pathway have yielded remarkable antitumor activity by stimulating cancer-specific T-cell immunity. Here, we identify previously unknown role for PD-1 as growth-promoting receptor intrinsic to cells. four established human lines, MKL-1, MKL-2, MS-1, and WaGa, RT-PCR amplification sequencing revealed expression full (PDCD1) mRNA coding sequence. Immunoblot FACS analyses demonstrated protein expression. Immunofluorescence staining also CK20+CD45- cells in clinical tumor biospecimens. Binding MCC-PD-1 its ligands, PD-L1 or PD-L2, induced protumorigenic mTOR signaling mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mROS) generation, both which were inhibited clinically approved blocking antibody, nivolumab. Consistently, blockade suppressed vitro proliferation vivo xenograft growth mice lacking adaptive Our results MCC-intrinsic novel growth-accelerating mechanism therapeutic target, might contribute inhibitor efficacy patients.

Basal cell carcinoma: PD-L1/PD-1 checkpoint expression and tumor regression after PD-1 blockade

Monoclonal antibodies that block immune regulatory proteins such as programmed death-1 (PD-1) have demonstrated remarkable efficacy in controlling the growth of multiple tumor types. Unresectable or metastatic basal cell carcinoma, however, has largely gone untested. Because PD-Ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression in other tumor types has been associated with response to anti-PD-1, we investigated the e...

Melanoma Cell-Intrinsic PD-1 Receptor Functions Promote Tumor Growth

Therapeutic antibodies targeting programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) activate tumor-specific immunity and have shown remarkable efficacy in the treatment of melanoma. Yet, little is known about tumor cell-intrinsic PD-1 pathway effects. Here, we show that murine and human melanomas contain PD-1-expressing cancer subpopulations and demonstrate that melanoma cell-intrinsic PD-1 promotes tumorigenesis,...

ABCB5-Targeted Chemoresistance Reversal Inhibits Merkel Cell Carcinoma Growth.

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a highly aggressive neuroendocrine skin cancer with profound but poorly understood resistance to chemotherapy, which poses a significant barrier to clinical MCC treatment. Here we show that ATP-binding cassette member B5 (ABCB5) confers resistance to standard-of-care MCC chemotherapeutic agents and provide proof-of-principle that ABCB5 blockade can inhibit human M...

Human CAR T cells with cell-intrinsic PD-1 checkpoint blockade resist tumor-mediated inhibition.

Following immune attack, solid tumors upregulate coinhibitory ligands that bind to inhibitory receptors on T cells. This adaptive resistance compromises the efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies, which redirect T cells to solid tumors. Here, we investigated whether programmed death-1-mediated (PD-1-mediated) T cell exhaustion affects mesothelin-targeted CAR T cells and ex...

MiR-125b inhibits stromal cell proliferation in giant cell tumor of bone by targeting parathyroid hormone 1 receptor

Objective(s):miR-125b has been identified as a tumor suppressor in many tumors, but its role in giant cell tumor (GCT) of bone remains poorly understood. The current study aimed to investigate the potential role and mechanism of miR-125b in GCT. Materials and Methods:Expression levels of miR-125b in GCT tissues were determined using RT-PCR. The cell proliferation was surveyed by direct cell coun...
