Increased expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in human pituitary tumors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
PURPOSE: Subsets of pituitary tumors exhibit an aggressive clinical courses and recur despite surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Because modulation of the immune response through inhibition of T-cell checkpoints has led to durable clinical responses ...

Silencing B7-H1 enhances the anti-tumor effect of bladder cancer antigen-loaded dendritic cell vaccine in vitro

open access: yesOncoTargets and Therapy, 2014
The aim of this study was to examine whether short hairpin RNA (shRNA) expressing lentiviral particles targeting B7-H1 infection could result in B7-H1 knockdown on dendritic cells (DCs) and to investigate whether B7-H1 silencing could augment the immune function of DCs and further elicit a more potent anti-tumor immune effect against bladder cancer ...

Immunological backbone of uveal melanoma: is there a rationale for immunotherapy? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
No standard treatment has been established for metastatic uveal melanoma (mUM). Immunotherapy is commonly used for this disease even though UM has not been included in phase III clinical trials with checkpoint inhibitors.

CTLA-4 and PD-1 ligand gene expression in epithelial thyroid cancers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The dysregulation of PD-1 ligands (PD-L1 and PD-L2) and CTLA-4 ligands (CD80 and CD86) represents a tumor strategy to escape the immune surveillance. Here, the expression of PD-L1, PD-L2, CD80 and CD86 was evaluated at mRNA level in 94 patients affected ...

Immunocompetent murine models for the study of glioblastoma immunotherapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Glioblastoma remains a lethal diagnosis with a 5-year survival rate of less than 10%. (NEJM 352:987-96, 2005) Although immunotherapy-based approaches are capable of inducing detectable immune responses against tumor-specific antigens, improvements in ...

B7 costimulation and intracellular indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) expression in peripheral blood of healthy pregnant and non-pregnant women. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: B7 costimulatory molecules are expressed on antigen presenting cells (APCs) and are important regulators of T cell activation. We investigated the role of the B7 family of costimulatory molecules in the development of the systemic maternal ...

PD-L1 chimeric costimulatory receptor improves the efficacy of CAR-T cells for PD-L1-positive solid tumors and reduces toxicity in vivo

open access: yesBiomarker Research, 2020
Background On-target off-tumor toxicity impedes the clinical application of chimeric antigen receptor-modified T cells (CAR-T cells) in the treatment of solid tumors.

Pattern of differential expression of costimulatory molecules in myeloma cell line MM1.R

open access: yesRevista Médica del Hospital General de México, 2018
T cells constantly recognise and eliminate circulating tumour cells. They require two signals in order to be activated: antigen presentation via TCR, and costimulatory interaction with different surface molecules of the B7 family, which may either ...

HDAC inhibition potentiates immunotherapy in triple negative breast cancer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents a more aggressive and difficult subtype of breast cancer where responses to chemotherapy occur, but toxicity is significant and resistance often follows. Immunotherapy has shown promising results in various
