Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Elucidation of the Signatures of Proteasome-Catalyzed Peptide Splicing

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Proteasomes catalyze the degradation of endogenous proteins into oligopeptides, but can concurrently create spliced oligopeptides through ligation of previously non-contiguous peptide fragments. Recent studies have uncovered a formerly unappreciated role

Stimulator of interferon genes agonist augmented antitumor immunity of osimertinib in Egfr‐mutated lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining osimertinib with the STING agonist ADU‐S100 activates innate and adaptive immunity to overcome the non‐inflamed microenvironment of Egfr‐mutant lung cancer. This combination increases NK and CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, associated with activation of the STING‐IRF3 pathway and local immunogenic cell death.

Autophagy proteins in antigen processing for presentation on MHC molecules

open access: yes, 2016
Autophagy describes catabolic pathways that deliver cytoplasmic constituents for lysosomal degradation. Since major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules sample protein degradation products and present them to T cells for adaptive immunity, it is ...

Antigen-presenting autoreactive B cells activate regulatory T cells and suppress autoimmune arthritis in mice.

open access: yes, 2023
B cells undergo several rounds of selection to eliminate potentially pathogenic autoreactive clones, but in contrast to T cells, evidence of positive selection of autoreactive B cells remains moot. Using unique tetramers, we traced natural autoreactive B

TAPBPR mediates peptide dissociation from MHC class I using a leucine lever

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Tapasin and TAPBPR are known to perform peptide editing on major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC I) molecules; however, the precise molecular mechanism(s) involved in this process remain largely enigmatic.

Flow Enabled Target Capture Halbach‐based magnetic enrichment increases circulating tumor cell capture from blood in metastatic cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pair‐wise comparison of the CellSearch and FETCH enrichment technologies for circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from metastatic breast, prostate, and small cell lung cancer patients shows an increased capture of CTCs using FETCH enrichment. The clinical implementation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) as a predictive tool for therapy efficacy in the ...

Tumor-Derived Microvesicles Enhance Cross-Processing Ability of Clinical Grade Dendritic Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Tumor cells release extracellular microvesicles (MVs) in the microenvironment to deliver biological signals to neighboring cells as well as to cells in distant tissues.

Mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities of the ribotoxic stress response in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer cells' high translational demand creates opportunities to therapeutically target ribosome function. Ribosome stalling and collisions activate ZAKα and the ribotoxic stress response (RSR), which can trigger rapid, p53‐independent apoptosis in cancer.

Processing of Antigenic Peptides by Aminopeptidases

open access: yesBiological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2004
Antigenic peptides presented to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules are generated in the cytosol during degradation of cellular proteins by the ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic pathway. Proteasome can generate N-extended precursors as well as final epitopes, and then the precursors are processed to mature epitopes by ...
