Expression of TIM3/VISTA checkpoints and the CD68 macrophage-associated marker correlates with anti-PD1/PDL1 resistance: implications of immunogram heterogeneity. [PDF]
Although immunotherapies have achieved remarkable salutary effects among subgroups of advanced cancers, most patients do not respond. We comprehensively evaluated biomarkers associated with the "cancer-immunity cycle" in the pan-cancer setting in order ...

Emerging phagocytosis checkpoints in cancer immunotherapy
Cancer immunotherapy, mainly including immune checkpoints-targeted therapy and the adoptive transfer of engineered immune cells, has revolutionized the oncology landscape as it utilizes patients’ own immune systems in combating the cancer cells.

Regulatory mechanisms of immune checkpoints PD-L1 and CTLA-4 in cancer
The cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4)/B7 and programmed death 1 (PD-1)/ programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) are two most representative immune checkpoint pathways, which negatively regulate T cell immune function during different ...

Blockade of novel immune checkpoints and new therapeutic combinations to boost antitumor immunity
Immunotherapy has emerged as a promising strategy for boosting antitumoral immunity. Blockade of immune checkpoints (ICs), which regulate the activity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and natural killer (NK) cells has proven clinical benefits ...

Zeb1 induces immune checkpoints to form an immunosuppressive envelope around invading cancer cells
Zeb1-induced immune checkpoints promote M2 macrophages and protect invading lung cancer cells from inflammatory cells. The PDL1-PD1 immune checkpoint inhibits T cell activation, and its blockade is effective in a subset of patients.

Targeting immune checkpoints: how to use natural killer cells for fighting against solid tumors
Natural killer (NK) cells are unique innate immune cells that mediate anti‐viral and anti‐tumor responses. Thus, they might hold great potential for cancer immunotherapy. NK cell adoptive immunotherapy in humans has shown modest efficacy.
