Optimizing cancer treatments to induce an acute immune response: radiation Abscopal effects, PAMPs, and DAMPs.
Clinical results indicate improved survival in poorly differentiated prostate cancer patients following a treatment schedule that maximizes hormone therapy prior to radiation. This may be because of a systemic immune response, called an abscopal effect. A literature review showed an association between acute infection and abscopal cancer remission. This led to the theory that, in the presence o...
متن کاملPAMPs and DAMPs as triggers for DIC
BACKGROUND Neutrophil elastase plays an important role in the development and progression of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Although the selective elastase inhibitor, sivelestat, is widely used in Japan for treating ARDS patients, its effectiveness remains controversial. The aim of the current study was to investigate the effects of sivelestat in ARDS patients with evidence of incr...
متن کاملImmune Modulation and Stereotactic Radiation: Improving Local and Abscopal Responses
New and innovative treatment strategies for cancer patients in the fields of immunotherapy and radiotherapy are rapidly developing in parallel. Among the most promising preclinical treatment approaches is combining immunotherapy with radiotherapy where early data suggest synergistic effects in several tumor model systems. These studies demonstrate that radiation combined with immunotherapy can ...
متن کاملRadiation-enhanced Immune Response to Cancer: Workshop,
here is rapidly growing interest in the potential for syneristic, clinically relevant therapeutic responses by combinng radiation therapy with immune enhancement. Because f this interest, a small group of active researchers in this eld convened in a workshop to summarize recent preclincal research on combining radiation therapy with immunoherapy and to assess implications for translational rese...
متن کاملPAMPs, MAMPs, DAMPs and others: an update on the diversity of plant immunity elicitors
Plants possess a broad array of defenses that could be actively expressed in response of pathogenic organisms or parasites but also following beneficial saprophytic microorganisms recognition. Specifically, there are compounds derived from these organisms and called elicitors that are perceived by the plant to induce a locally or systemically expressed resistance. The understanding of the physi...
