Tolerogenic pDCs: spotlight on Foxo3.
Cancer creates a peculiar inflammatory environment enriched for transcription factors with a negative influence on adaptive immunity. In this issue of the JCI, Watkins and colleagues identify Foxo3 as a master regulator of the tolerogenic program in tumor-associated, plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs). Foxo3 enables pDCs to induce tolerance in tumor antigen-specific CD8+ T cells, turning them into regulat...
متن کاملA Spotlight on Spotlight
In this paper, we have made an attempt to take a look under the hood of Spotlight and understand some of the following questions amongst others: • How well-integrated is Spotlight with the file system? • How reliable is the interface between Spotlight and the file system? • Is live update a myth or a reality under heavy file system activity? Based on our experiments, it seems that Spotlight is ...
متن کاملRetraction. FOXO3 programs tumor-associated DCs to become tolerogenic in human and murine prostate cancer.
The limited success of cancer immunotherapy is often attributed to the loss of antigen-specific T cell function in situ. However, the mechanism for this loss of function is unknown. In this study, we describe a population of tumor-associated DCs (TADCs) in both human and mouse prostate cancer that tolerizes and induces suppressive activity in tumor-specific T cells. In tumors from human prostat...
متن کاملFoxo3
Recent findings demonstrate that dendritic cells in prostate tumors induce immune tolerance in tumor antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells. We propose that DC tolerogenicity can be regulated by expression of Foxo3; silencing Foxo3 expression enhances anti-tumor immune responses and renders FOXO3 a potential target for immunotherapy.
متن کاملSpotlight on Knowledge SPOTLIGHT ON KNOWLEDGE: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
In this paper, Adomako Ampofo discusses the activism and struggles that gave birth to the domestic violence law in Ghana. A professor in African Studies and a women’s rights activist herself, Adomako Ampofo traces the trajectory of Ghanaian women organizing for change from the pre-colonial period, through the independent struggles to the passage of the domestic violence bill into law. She parti...
