New insights into the pathogenesis and treatment of non-viral hepatocellular carcinoma: a balancing act between immunosuppression and immunosurveillance. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. HCC initiates as a consequence of chronic liver damage and inflammation caused by hepatitis B and C virus infections, excessive alcohol consumption, or non ...

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 ...

PD-1 and LAG-3 Checkpoint Blockade: Potential Avenues for Therapy in B-Cell Lymphoma

open access: yesCells, 2021
The dependence of cancer on an immunotolerant tumor microenvironment (TME) is well established. Immunotherapies that overcome tumor-induced immune suppression have been central to recent advancements in oncology.

Immune checkpoint blockade in lymphoid malignancies [PDF]

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, 2016
Malignant cells may subvert and escape endogenous host immune surveillance by up‐regulation of immune inhibitory signals known as immune checkpoints. These checkpoints are important therapeutic targets, and antibodies that block checkpoint signaling have shown remarkable efficacy in some solid tumors as well as in some refractory hematologic ...

Intradermal DNA vaccination combined with dual CTLA-4 and PD-1 blockade provides robust tumor immunity in murine melanoma.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
We aimed to explore whether the combination of intradermal DNA vaccination, to boost immune response against melanoma antigens, and immune checkpoint blockade, to alleviate immunosuppression, improves antitumor effectiveness in a murine B16F10 melanoma ...

Dual CTLA-4 and PD-L1 Blockade Inhibits Tumor Growth and Liver Metastasis in a Highly Aggressive Orthotopic Mouse Model of Colon Cancer

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2019
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown clinical benefit in several cancer entities including metastatic microsatellite instable colorectal carcinomas. However, for the majority of metastatic colorectal carcinomas the potential and limitations of immune ...

The Role of Immune Checkpoint Molecules on Macrophages in Cancer, Infection, and Autoimmune Pathologies

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized immunotherapy against various cancers over the last decade. The use of checkpoint inhibitors results in remarkable re-activation of patients’ immune system, but is also associated with significant adverse ...

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.

Improving cancer immunotherapy via co-delivering checkpoint blockade and thrombospondin-1 downregulator

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2023
The use of checkpoint-blockade antibodies is still restricted in several malignancies due to the modest efficacy, despite considerable success in anti-tumor immunotherapy.
