Checkpoint blockade in Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Blood Advances, 2017
: Classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is characterized by nearly universal genetic alterations in 9p24.1, resulting in constitutive expression of PD-1 ligands. This likely underlies the unique sensitivity of cHL to PD-1 blockade, with response rates of ∼70%

The VHL tumor suppressor at the crossroad of protein folding, aggregation, and cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Mutations, environmental stress, and chaperone dysfunction can destabilize pVHL, promoting its conversion from the native folded state into amyloid‐like assemblies. This transition may contribute to protein storage, cell dormancy, survival, and drug resistance.

Heating it up: Oncolytic viruses make tumors ‘hot’ and suitable for checkpoint blockade immunotherapies

OncoImmunology, 2018
Immune checkpoint blockade is less efficient in patients bearing immunologically ‘cold’ tumors. Oncolytic viruses, which were originally discovered for their ability to preferentially kill malignant cells, can recondition the tumor microenvironment ...

Combining targeted therapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors in the treatment of metastatic melanoma

Cancer Biology & Medicine, 2014
Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer and has an incidence that is rising faster than any other solid tumor. Metastatic melanoma treatment has considerably progressed in the past five years with the introduction of targeted therapy (BRAF and MEK ...

Molecular Architecture of the DNA Replication Origin Activation Checkpoint [PDF]

, 2010
Perturbation of DNA replication initiation arrests human cells in G1, pointing towards an origin activation checkpoint. We used RNAi against Cdc7 kinase to inhibit replication initiation and dissect this checkpoint in fibroblasts.

Regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1 by p53‐ΔNp63 crosstalk modulates the DNA damage response and therapeutic efficacy in HNSCC

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) p53 and p63 exert opposite roles on the transcription regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1. Under basal conditions, p53 levels are low and p63 represses NEAT1 expression. Upon genotoxic stress, p53 is rapidly induced, displacing p63 from the NEAT1 promoter leading to NEAT1 transcriptional activation and ...

Extracellular matrix remodeling and immune reprogramming drive residual tumor progression of liver cancer after incomplete microwave ablation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Incomplete microwave ablation (iMWA) of liver cancer triggers a biphasic progression in residual tumors. At Day 3, the microenvironment is characterized by acute inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. By Day 14, a profound shift occurs toward oncogenic signal transduction and immunosuppression, marked by macrophage ...

SPHINX31 acts as a SRPK1 inhibitor targeting the ATR/DNA‐PKcs/CHK1 replicative checkpoint to inhibit cell growth in non‐small cell lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The kinase SRPK1 directly interacts with the protein TOPBP1 and regulates the pre‐mRNA splicing of WIZ thereby contributing to the activation of the ATR/CHK1 replicative checkpoint in response to replicative stress. This allows cancer cells' genomic stability and survival.

Boosting cancer immunotherapy: drug delivery systems leveraging ferroptosis and immune checkpoint blockade

Frontiers in Immunology
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment, significantly improving outcomes for various malignancies. Despite their clinical success, only a subset of patients benefits from ICIs treatment, underscoring the need for ...

Checkpoint blockade in cancer immunotherapy

, 2021
The immune checkpoint blockade is a novel approach of cancer therapy, which markedly enhanced treatment efficacy of several cancer types. However, the frequency of cancer patients non-responding to this treatment is high.
