Can immunity to breast cancer eliminate residual micrometastases?
An effective immune response has the potential for breast cancer sterilization with marked reduction in the potential for disease relapse. Adaptive type I immune cells uniquely have the capability of (i) cytotoxic T-cell activation and proliferation until all antigen expressing cells are eradicated, (ii) traversing endothelial barriers to penetrate tumor deposits wherever they occur, and (iii) ...
متن کاملGetting personal with neoantigen-based therapeutic cancer vaccines.
Despite years of preclinical efforts and hundreds of clinical studies, therapeutic cancer vaccines with the routine ability to limit or eliminate tumor growth in humans have been elusive. With advances in genome sequencing, it is now possible to identify a new class of tumor-specific antigens derived from mutated proteins that are present only in the tumor. These "neoantigens" should provide hi...
متن کاملInnate immune cells in inflammation and cancer.
The innate immune system has evolved in multicellular organisms to detect and respond to situations that compromise tissue homeostasis. It comprises a set of tissue-resident and circulating leukocytes primarily designed to sense pathogens and tissue damage through hardwired receptors and eliminate noxious sources by mediating inflammatory processes. While indispensable to immunity, the inflamma...
متن کاملLysophosphatidic acid inhibits CD8 T cell activation and control of tumor progression.
CD8 T lymphocytes are able to eliminate nascent tumor cells through a process referred to as immune surveillance. However, multiple inhibitory mechanisms within the tumor microenvironment have been described that impede tumor rejection by CD8 T cells, including increased signaling by inhibitory receptors. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lysophospholipid that has been shown repeatedly...
متن کاملImmunoglobulin GM allotypes as effect modifiers of cytomegalovirus-spurred neuroblastoma.
An uncommon immunoglobulin GM (γ marker) genotype has been reported to be strongly associated with susceptibility to neuroblastoma, but the mechanism(s) underlying this association is not known. Increasing evidence implicates human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in the pathogenesis of neuroblastoma. HCMV has evolved a large repertoire of sophisticated strategies to evade host immunosurveillance. Partic...
