SHP-1: the next checkpoint target for cancer immunotherapy? [PDF]
The immense power of the immune system is harnessed in healthy individuals by a range of negative regulatory signals and checkpoints. Manipulating these checkpoints through inhibition has resulted in striking immune-mediated clearance of otherwise ...

The Proliferative Role of Immune Checkpoints in Tumors: Double Regulation
Simple Summary Cancer remains a serious health problem owing to its high morbidity and mortality. Immunotherapy, represented by anti-programmed death-1D1/anti-PD-Ligand 1 treatments, has become one of the most important methods for cancer treatment ...

The regulation of immune checkpoints by the hypoxic tumor microenvironment
The tumor microenvironment (TME) influences the occurrence and progression of tumors, and hypoxia is an important characteristic of the TME. The expression of programmed death 1 (PD1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PDL1), cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated ...

NK Cell-Based Immune Checkpoint Inhibition
Immunotherapy, with an increasing number of therapeutic dimensions, is becoming an important mode of treatment for cancer patients. The inhibition of immune checkpoints, which are the source of immune escape for various cancers, is one such ...

CTLA-4 and PD-1 ligand gene expression in epithelial thyroid cancers [PDF]
The dysregulation of PD-1 ligands (PD-L1 and PD-L2) and CTLA-4 ligands (CD80 and CD86) represents a tumor strategy to escape the immune surveillance. Here, the expression of PD-L1, PD-L2, CD80 and CD86 was evaluated at mRNA level in 94 patients affected ...

Immune Checkpoints and Inhibitors
Antigen-specific T cells encountering and responding to tumor cells are regulated by a variety of mechanisms including inhibitory receptors and regulatory T cells to prevent overexposure immune responses.

Can the plasma PD-1 levels predict the presence and efficiency of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in patients with metastatic melanoma? [PDF]
Background: The immune response in melanoma patients is locally affected by presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), generally divided into brisk, nonbrisk, and absent.
