Turning the tumor microenvironment into a self vaccine site
We aimed to determine if the tumor microenvironment could be turned into a "self"-vaccine site. We show that provoking a local inflammatory response modulates endothelia to permit the infiltration of innate and adaptive effector cells which collaborate to eradicate the inflamed tumor and other tumor deposits, and provide long-term protection.
متن کاملFiring Hot, Firing Cold: How Poikilotherms Compensate for Temperature Swings
If you are reading this, you have one less problem than the crabs that are the subject of a new study in this issue of PLoS Biology. Humans, like all mammals (as well as birds), are ‘‘warm-blooded,’’ or more correctly ‘‘homeothermic,’’ meaning we maintain our core body organs at a constant temperature. We expend considerable energy to do so, and may die when we cannot. In contrast, crabs, cod, ...
متن کاملTurning up the heat on L-type Ca2+ channels promotes neuronal firing and seizure activity
It is well recognized clinically that fever in young children (< 6 y of age) may lead to seizure activity in a small, but significant percentage of these individuals, which may have negative consequences for the developing brain and progressive cognitive function. In rodent models, exposure of acute brain slices to hyperthermic temperatures (i.e., 38-41 °C) is reported to evoke membrane depolar...
متن کاملNew Insights into the Tumor Microenvironment Utilizing Protein Array Technology
The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a considerably heterogeneous niche, which is created by tumor cells, the surrounding tumor stroma, blood vessels, infiltrating immune cells, and a variety of associated stromal cells. Intercellular communication within this niche is driven by soluble proteins synthesized by local tumor and stromal cells and include chemokines, growth factors, interferons, int...
متن کاملThe brain tumor microenvironment.
High-grade brain tumors are heterogeneous with respect to the composition of bona fide tumor cells and with respect to a range of intermingling parenchymal cells. Glioblastomas harbor multiple cell types, some with increased tumorigenicity and stem cell-like capacity. The stem-like cells maybe the cells of origin for tumor relapse. However, the tumor-associated parenchymal cells such as vascula...
