Bell's palsy during rechallenge of immune checkpoint inhibitor

IJU Case Reports, 2023
Introduction The peripheral nervous system is one of the target organs of immune‐related adverse events. Peripheral facial nerve palsy, also called Bell's palsy, which is induced by immune checkpoint inhibitors, is quite rare, and its clinical features ...

Immune checkpoint blockade therapy [PDF]

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2018
Immune checkpoints are accessory molecules that either promote or inhibit T-cell activation. Two inhibitory molecules, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), got high attention, as inhibition of CTLA-4 or PD-1 signaling provides the first immune therapy that significantly improves the survival of patients ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

The Future of Checkpoint Inhibitors in Uveal Melanoma: A Narrative Review

Ophthalmology and Therapy
Introduction Immune checkpoint inhibitors have made tremendous progress over the last decade in the treatment of cutaneous melanoma, but their application in uveal melanoma treatment is less successful, owing in part to the immunological privilege of the

TIGIT as an emerging immune checkpoint [PDF]

Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 2019
Summary T cell immunoglobulin and ITIM domain (TIGIT) is an inhibitory receptor expressed on lymphocytes that was recently propelled under the spotlight as a major emerging target in cancer immunotherapy. TIGIT interacts with CD155 expressed on antigen-presenting cells or tumour cells to down-regulate T cell and natural killer (NK ...

Proteasome inhibitor, ixazomib prevents topoisomerase‐I degradation and reverses irinotecan resistance in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Ixazomib inhibits proteasome‐mediated degradation of topoisomerase I induced by irinotecan, thereby restoring drug sensitivity and promoting tumor cell death in colorectal cancer. Irinotecan, a topoisomerase I (topoI) inhibitor, is widely used for colorectal cancer, but resistance remains a major clinical challenge.

The CD47-SIRPα Immune Checkpoint

Immunity, 2020
The cytotoxic activity of myeloid cells is regulated by a balance of signals that are transmitted through inhibitory and activating receptors. The Cluster of Differentiation 47 (CD47) protein, expressed on both healthy and cancer cells, plays a pivotal role in this balance by delivering a "don't eat me signal" upon binding to the Signal-regulatory ...

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

Challenges of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Treatment of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Zhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2019
With the gradually in-depth research of immune checkpoint, the checkpoint inhibitors, such as programmed death-1(PD-1) inhibitors, programmed death–ligand 1(PD-L1) inhibitors and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein-4(CTLA-4) inhibitors, had made ...
