Immune checkpoint blockade in infectious diseases [PDF]

open access: yesNature Reviews Immunology, 2017
The upregulation of immune checkpoint molecules, such as programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1) and cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4), on immune cells occurs during acute infections, such as malaria, as well as during chronic persistent viral infections, including HIV and hepatitis B virus.

Immune-Checkpoint Blockade Therapy in Lymphoma

open access: yes, 2020
Tumor cells use immune-checkpoint pathways to evade the host immune system and suppress immune cell function. These cells express programmed cell-death protein 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1)/PD-L2, which bind to the programmed cell-death protein 1 (PD-1) present on ...

Checkpoint blockade in esophagogastric cancer

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, 2018
There are few effective treatment options for metastatic esophagogastric adenocarcinomas after progression on second‐line chemotherapy. Immune checkpoint blockade therapy is a promising treatment strategy for selected advanced esophagogastric cancer, and the PD‐1 inhibitor pembrolizumab has recently been approved for metastatic or recurrent gastric or ...

Corticosteroids and immune checkpoint blockade

open access: yesAging, 2015
Novel immunotherapies acting through immune checkpoint blockade to stimulate the immune response have demonstrated promising outcomes in advanced malignancies [1]. As a result, novel cancer immunotherapy was named a scientific breakthrough of the year in 2013 by Science.

Persistent mutant oncogene specific T cells in two patients benefitting from anti-PD-1

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2019
Background Several predictive biomarkers are currently approved or are under investigation for the selection of patients for checkpoint blockade. Tumor PD-L1 expression is used for stratification of non-small cell lung (NSCLC) patients, with tumor ...

DISSECTION OF T CELL ACTIVATION PHASES FOR CHECK POINT BLOCKADE IMMUNOTHERAPY

open access: yesSabiad, 2022
Checkpoint blockade immunotherapy relies on the restoration of effector responses in precursor-exhausted T cells. Nevertheless, many inhibitory receptors are upregulated soon after the activation and reach high levels at effector phases.

PD-1 Blockade Promotes Emerging Checkpoint Inhibitors in Enhancing T Cell Responses to Allogeneic Dendritic Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Immune checkpoint inhibitors, which target coinhibitory T cell molecules to promote anticancer immune responses, are on the rise to become a new pillar of cancer therapy.

Cdk1 inactivation terminates mitotic checkpoint surveillance and stabilizes kinetochore attachments in anaphase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Two mechanisms safeguard the bipolar attachment of chromosomes in mitosis. A correction mechanism destabilizes erroneous attachments that do not generate tension across sister kinetochores [1].

Infant Embryonal CNS Tumors: Molecular Insights and Treatment Considerations for Contemporary Pediatric Neuro‐Oncology

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Embryonal tumors comprise the majority of malignant central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms diagnosed in children under 3 years of age. Compared with their counterparts in older children, these tumors exhibit distinct molecular biology and a more aggressive clinical phenotype, while their management is complicated by the heightened ...

Mad3 KEN boxes mediate both Cdc20 and Mad3 turnover, and are critical for the spindle checkpoint [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Mitotic progression is controlled by proteolytic destruction of securin and cyclin. The mitotic E3 ubiquitin ligase, known as the anaphase promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C), in partnership with its activators Cdc20p and Cdh1p, targets these proteins
