Temporal evolution of programmed death-ligand 1 expression in patients with non-small cell lung cancer [PDF]
Background/Aims Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, a validated predictive biomarker for anti-PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, is reported to change over time. This poses challenges during clinical application in non-small cell lung cancer.

Human Rhinovirus Infection Enhances the Th2 Environment in Allergic and Non-allergic Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis [PDF]
Objectives. This study was conducted to determine whether patients with allergic rhinitis might be more susceptible to human rhinovirus (HRV) infection and whether the effects of infection on the elicited immune responses are different in allergic and ...

EFFECT OF TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR β1 ON PROLIFERATION AND MIGRATION ABILITY OF BLADDER CANCER CELLS AND ITS MECHANISM [PDF]
Objective To investigate the effect of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) on the proliferation and migration ability of bladder cancer T24 cells and its mechanism. Methods T24 cells were treated with TGF-β1 at concentrations of 0, 1, 5, 10, 20 and 40

Alternative immune checkpoints in immunoregulatory profile of cancer stem cells
Tumor-mediated bypass of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy with anti-programmed death-1 (PD-1), anti-programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1, also called B7–H1 or CD274) or anti-cytotoxic T lymphocyte associated antigen-4 (CTLA-4) is a challenge of ...

CNS expression of B7-H1 regulates pro-inflammatory cytokine production and alters severity of Theiler's virus-induced demyelinating disease. [PDF]
The CNS is a unique organ due to its limited capacity for immune surveillance. As macrophages of the CNS, microglia represent a population originally known for the ability to assist neuronal stability, are now appreciated for their role in initiating and

B7-H1 blockade increases survival of dysfunctional CD8(+) T cells and confers protection against Leishmania donovani infections. [PDF]
Experimental visceral leishmaniasis (VL) represents an exquisite model to study CD8(+) T cell responses in a context of chronic inflammation and antigen persistence, since it is characterized by chronic infection in the spleen and CD8(+) T cells are ...

Expression of programmed cell death ligand-1 and mismatch repair status in endometrial carcinomas
Background and Aims: Programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) is a co-regulatory molecule that suppresses local immunity, and mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency (dMMR) is reported to influence the response to anti-PD-L1-targeted therapy.

Engineered CAR-T-Derived Exosomes Co-Delivering miR-145 and Cytotoxic Proteins for Targeted Solid Tumour Therapy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR‐T) therapy has demonstrated remarkable efficacy in haematologic malignancies but remains constrained in solid tumours due to limited tumour penetration, immunosuppressive microenvironments and the risk of cytokine release syndrome (CRS).
