O24: Functional Role of the K2P Potassium Channel TASK-3 in Glioma
TASK-3, a two-pore-domain (K2P) potassium channel, has been implicated as important regulator for the effector function and proliferation of T-cells. Interestingly, TASK-3 has also a functional impact on tumor cells. Therefore, we sought to investigate whether TASK3 modulation might have a therapeutic potential for malignant gliomas by a variety of phenotypical and functional in vitro assays mi...
متن کاملCombining Adoptive Cell Therapy with Cytomegalovirus-Based Vaccine Is Protective against Solid Skin Tumors
Despite many years of research, cancer vaccines have largely been ineffective in the treatment of established cancers. Many barriers to immune-mediated destruction of malignant cells exist, and these likely limit the efficacy of cancer vaccines. In this study, we sought to enhance the efficacy of a cytomegalovirus (CMV)-based vaccine targeting melanoma by combining vaccination with other forms ...
متن کاملA New Hope in Immunotherapy for Malignant Gliomas: Adoptive T Cell Transfer Therapy
Immunotherapy emerged as a promising therapeutic approach to highly incurable malignant gliomas due to tumor-specific cytotoxicity, minimal side effect, and a durable antitumor effect by memory T cells. But, antitumor activities of endogenously activated T cells induced by immunotherapy such as vaccination are not sufficient to control tumors because tumor-specific antigens may be self-antigens...
متن کاملEffects of Ipilimumab on expanded tumor infiltrating lymphocytes in patients with stage IV malignant melanoma
Introduction Adoptive cell therapy, where patients are treated with expanded autologous T cells derived from tumor specimens, is currently one of the most effective treatments for stage IV malignant melanoma. Clinical studies have indicated a link between treatment with anti-CTLA-4 treatment (e.g. Ipilimumab) prior to tumor removal, and a favorable treatment response to subsequent adoptive cell...
متن کاملAdoptive immunotherapy for malignant brain tumors using human peripheral blood mononuclear cells activated by the Streptococcal preparation OK-432.
Adoptive immunotherapy using OK-432-activated mononuclear cells (OK-MCs) offers cell-mediated and cytokine-mediated pathways for antitumor activity. The effectiveness of direct intratumoral administration of OK-MCs via a catheter/reservoir system was studied in patients with malignant brain tumors. Seventeen patients, 12 with malignant glioma, four with metastatic adenocarcinoma, and one with p...
