Loss of antigen cross-presentation after complete tumor resection is associated with the generation of protective tumor-specific CD8+ T-cell immunity
An incomplete understanding on the effect of surgery on tumor-specific immunity continues to hamper efforts to combine surgery with immunotherapy in the clinic. Herein, we describe the impact of tumor resection on the tumor-specific T-cell response, showing that complete tumor resection is associated with (1) a decline in the amount of cross-presented tumor antigens, (2) a decline of cytolytic ...
متن کاملSurgical removal of primary tumor reverses tumor-induced immunosuppression despite the presence of metastatic disease.
Immunotherapy is a promising approach for the management of malignancies. It may be particularly useful for tumors that do not respond to conventional therapies, such as many metastatic cancers. The efficacy of immunotherapy will depend on many factors, one of which is the immunocompetence of the host. Patients with large primary tumors frequently are immunosuppressed, making them poor candidat...
متن کاملIntratumor CpG-oligodeoxynucleotide injection induces protective antitumor T cell immunity.
Tumor cells are typically poorly immunogenic. The same mechanisms that evolved to avoid the induction of immune responses against self tissues, and, hence, autoimmune disease, also have to be overcome for immune therapy of cancer. Toll-like receptor-activating microbial products such as CpG motif containing DNA are among the primary stimuli that the immune system uses to distinguish between inf...
متن کاملSolid Pseudopapillary Tumor of the Pancreas: a Case Report and Literature of Review
Solid pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas (SPT) are rare tumors of the pancreas with low malignancy potential and a very good prognostic outcome after surgery. The outcome after radical resection is favourable. A case of solid-pseudopapillary tumor (SPT) of the pancreas in a 20-year-old woman is presented. The patient underwent resection of the mass in the pancreatic head and pancreaticoduod...
متن کاملTargeting of phosphatidylserine by monoclonal antibodies reverses an immunosuppressive checkpoint inducing innate and specific anti-tumor responses
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid normally residing in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane and becomes exposed on tumor vascular endothelial cells (ECs) and tumor cells, and exposure is enhanced in response to chemotherapy, irradiation and oxidative stresses in the tumor microenvironment. PS exposure in tumors promotes an immunosuppressive microenvironment which includes the recrui...
