Potent antitumor activity of interleukin-27.
Although much promising data that interleukin (IL)-12 could be a powerful therapeutic agent against cancer were reported in animal models, its excessive toxicity has become a problem for its clinical application. IL-27 is a novel IL-12 family member that plays a role in the early regulation of T helper cell 1 initiation, including induction of T-bet and IL-12 receptor beta 2 expression. In the ...
متن کاملThe antitumor potential of Interleukin-27 in prostate cancer
Prostate cancer (PCa) is of increasing significance worldwide as a consequence of the population ageing. Fragile elderly patients may particularly benefit from noninvasive and well tolerable immunotherapeutic approaches. Preclinical studies have revealed that the immune-regulatory cytokine IL-27 may exert anti-tumor activities in a variety of tumor types without discernable toxicity. We, thus, ...
متن کاملPotential clinical application of interleukin-27 as an antitumor agent
Cancer immunotherapies such as sipuleucel-T and ipilimumab are promising new treatments that harness the power of the immune system to fight cancer and achieve long-lasting remission. Interleukin (IL)-27, a member of the IL-12 heterodimeric cytokine family, has pleiotropic functions in the regulation of immune responses with both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory properties. Evidence obtai...
متن کاملInterleukin-27 acts as multifunctional antitumor agent in multiple myeloma.
PURPOSE Multiple myeloma (MM) derives from plasmablast/plasma cells that accumulate in the bone marrow. Different microenvironmental factors may promote metastatic dissemination especially to the skeleton, causing bone destruction. The balance between osteoclast and osteoblast activity represents a critical issue in bone remodeling. Thus, we investigated whether interluekin-27 (IL-27) may funct...
متن کاملPotent Antitumor Activity and Improved Pharmacological
Relevant drawbacks of the molecular structure and mechanism of the action of camptothecins are the instability of the E ring lactone and the reversibility of drug-target interaction. Such features are expected to limit the clinical efficacy of conventional camptothecins. In an attempt to overcome these limitations and to improve the pharmacological profile of camptothecins, a novel series of se...
