Notch and NF-kB: Coach and Players of Regulatory T-Cell Resposnse in Cancer [PDF]
The Notch signaling pathway plays multiple roles in driving T-cell fate decisions, proliferation, and aberrant growth. NF-kB is a cell-context key player interconnected with Notch signaling either in physiological or in pathological conditions.

Horses with equine recurrent uveitis have an activated CD4+ T-cell phenotype that can be modulated by mesenchymal stem cells in vitro. [PDF]
Equine recurrent uveitis (ERU) is an immune-mediated disease causing repeated or persistent inflammatory episodes which can lead to blindness. Currently, there is no cure for horses with this disease.

Siah2 control of T-regulatory cells limits anti-tumor immunity. [PDF]
Understanding the mechanisms underlying anti-tumor immunity is pivotal for improving immune-based cancer therapies. Here, we report that growth of BRAF-mutant melanoma cells is inhibited, up to complete rejection, in Siah2-/- mice.

Foxp3 and dominant tolerance [PDF]
The hallmark of the adaptive immune system is the random generation of antigen receptors in developing lymphocyte clones through a process of somatic cell gene rearrangement mediated by the recombination-activating gene recombinase.

FOXP3 and FOXP3-regulated microRNAs suppress SATB1 in breast cancer cells [PDF]
The transcription factor FOXP3 has been identified as a tumour suppressor in the breast and prostate epithelia, but little is known about its specific mechanism of action. We have identified a feed-forward regulatory loop in which FOXP3 suppresses the expression of the oncogene SATB1. In particular, we demonstrate that SATB1 is not only a direct target

Immune checkpoints in circulating and tumor-Infiltrating CD4 + T Cell Subsets in Colorectal cancer patients [PDF]
Blockade of inhibitory immune checkpoints (ICs) is a promising therapeutic approach; however, it has shown limited success in some cancers including colorectal cancer (CRC). The tumor microenvironment (TME) is largely responsible for response to therapy,

Regulatory T cells and Foxp3 [PDF]
Summary: Regulatory T (Treg) cells play central role in regulation of immune responses to self‐antigens, allergens, and commensal microbiota as well as immune responses to infectious agents and tumors. Transcriptional factor Foxp3 serves as a lineage specification factor of Treg cells.
