Human leukocyte antigen-G and cancer immunoediting.
Immunosurveillance is an extrinsic mechanism of cancer suppression that eliminates nascent tumors. However, the selection imposed by immunosurveillance can drive tumor evolution and the emergence of clinically apparent neoplasms. Mechanisms of immune escape acquired by less immunogenic variants during this process, termed immunoediting, may contribute significantly to malignant progression. In ...
متن کاملCompetition driven cancer immunoediting
It is a well-established fact that in an actively proliferating state tumors up-regulate glucose consumption to meet increasing energy demands by switching to glycolysis. What is often neglected is that actively proliferating cells of the immune system also switch to glycolysis and thus also have increased energy demands. Moreover, while cancer cells can revert back to aerobic metabolism, rapid...
متن کاملHow Micrornas Affect the Expression of Human Leukocyte Antigeng in Pregnancy
The expression of Human Leukocyte Antigen G (HLA-G) on Fetal Extravillous Trophoblast (EVT) cells during pregnancy plays an important role in preventing the fetus from rejection by suppressing the maternal immune system. Decreased expression levels of HLA-G have already shown to be associated with several complications of pregnancy such as pre-eclampsia. However, it remains largely unknown how ...
متن کاملImmunoediting of leukocyte functions within the tumor microenvironment promotes cancer metastasis development.
Attachment of tumor cells to the endothelium (EC) under flow conditions is critical for migration of tumor cells out of the vascular system to establish metastases. We found that neutrophils (PMN) increased melanoma cell extravasation. Endogenous IL-8 liberated from melanoma cells or from PMN induced by melanoma cells contributed to PMN-facilitated melanoma cell arrest on the EC in the microcir...
متن کاملThe immunobiology of cancer immunosurveillance and immunoediting.
The last fifteen years have seen a reemergence of interest in cancer immunosurveillance and a broadening of this concept into one termed cancer immunoediting. The latter, supported by strong experimental data derived from murine tumor models and provocative correlative data obtained by studying human cancer, holds that the immune system not only protects the host against development of primary ...
