PI3Kγ is a molecular switch that controls immune suppression [PDF]
Macrophages play critical, but opposite, roles in acute and chronic inflammation and cancer1,2,3,4,5. In response to pathogens or injury, inflammatory macrophages express cytokines that stimulate cytotoxic T cells, whereas macrophages in neoplastic and ...

Beyond the immune suppression: the immunotherapy in prostate cancer [PDF]
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer in men.Aswell in many other human cancers, inflammation and immune suppression have an important role in their development.We briefly describe the host components that interact with the tumor to ...

Recommendations for myeloid-derived suppressor cell nomenclature and characterization standards [PDF]
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) have emerged as major regulators of immune responses in cancer and other pathological conditions. In recent years, ample evidence supports key contributions of MDSC to tumour progression through both immune ...

Expression and DNA methylation of TNF, IFNG and FOXP3 in colorectal cancer and their prognostic significance. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) progression is associated with suppression of host cell-mediated immunity and local immune escape mechanisms. Our aim was to assess the immune function in terms of expression of TNF, IFNG and FOXP3 in CRC. METHODS:

Immune-mediated competition in rodent malaria is most likely caused by induced changes in innate immune clearance of merozoites [PDF]
Malarial infections are often genetically diverse, leading to competitive interactions between parasites. A quantitative understanding of the competition between strains is essential to understand a wide range of issues, including the evolution of ...

TIMs, TAMs, and PS- antibody targeting: implications for cancer immunotherapy
Immunotherapy for cancer is making impressive strides at improving survival of a subset of cancer patients. To increase the breadth of patients that benefit from immunotherapy, new strategies that combat the immunosuppressive microenvironment of tumors ...

Immune suppression and immune activation in depression [PDF]
Depression has been characterized as a disorder of both immune suppression and immune activation. Markers of impaired cellular immunity (decreased natural killer cell cytotoxicity) and inflammation (elevated IL-6, TNFα, and CRP) have been associated with depression.
