CD8+T cell responsiveness to anti-PD-1 is epigenetically regulated by Suv39h1 in melanomas
Tumor-infiltrating CD8 + T cells progressively lose functionality and fail to reject tumors. The underlying mechanism and re-programing induced by checkpoint blockers are incompletely understood.

Molecular Interactions of Antibody Drugs Targeting PD-1, PD-L1, and CTLA-4 in Immuno-Oncology
Cancer cells can evade immune surveillance through the molecular interactions of immune checkpoint proteins, including programmed death 1 (PD-1), PD-L1, and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4). Since 2011, the FDA-approved antibody drugs

Background Certain angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) have peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐γ (PPAR‐γ) activation property, which has been associated with improved programmed cell death ligand 1 blockade and cytotoxic T lymphocyte‐mediated ...

Antidrug Antibodies Against Immune Checkpoint Blockers: Impairment of Drug Efficacy or Indication of Immune Activation? [PDF]
Abstract The generation of antibodies following exposure to therapeutic drugs has been widely studied, however in oncology, data in relation to their clinical relevance are limited. Antidrug antibodies (ADAs) can cause a decrease in the amount of drug available, resulting in some cases in decreased antitumor activity and a consequent ...

Modern cancer therapy: cryoablation meets immune checkpoint blockade
Cryoablation, as a minimally invasive technology for the treatment of tumors, destroys target tumors with lethal low temperatures. It simultaneously releases a large number of tumor-specific antigens, pro-inflammatory cytokines, and nucleoproteins, known

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Low-grade glioma (LGG) is a highly aggressive disease in the skull. On the other hand, anoikis, a specific form of cell death induced by the loss of cell contact with the extracellular matrix, plays a key role in cancer metastasis. In this study, anoikis-

Cytoplasmic p21 promotes stemness of colon cancer cells via activation of the NFκB pathway
Cytoplasmic p21 promotes colorectal cancer stem cell (CSC) features by destabilizing the NFκB–IκB complex, activating NFκB signaling, and upregulating BCL‐xL and COX2. In contrast to nuclear p21, cytoplasmic p21 enhances spheroid formation and stemness transcription factor CD133.
