Programmed Cell Death-1/Programmed Cell Death Ligand-1 Checkpoint Inhibitors: Differences in Mechanism of Action [PDF]
Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) checkpoint inhibitors are widely used in many types of solid tumors, and are often considered to be in the same immunotherapy subclass. This review explores whether specific agents in these two categories exhibit differences in their mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics and ...

Differential Requirement for CD70 and CD80/CD86 in Dendritic Cellmediated Activation of Tumor Tolerized CD8 T Cells [PDF]
A major obstacle to efficacious T cell-based cancer immunotherapy is the tolerizing-tumor microenvironment that rapidly inactivates tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes.

PD-L1 Co-Stimulation Contributes to Ligand-Induced T Cell Receptor Down-Modulation on \(CD8^+\) T Cells [PDF]
T cell receptor (TCR) down-modulation after antigen presentation is a fundamental process that regulates TCR signal transduction. Current understanding of this process is that intrinsic TCR/CD28 signal transduction leads to TCR down-modulation.

Increased expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in human pituitary tumors [PDF]
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 ...

Programmed Death Ligand 1; An Immunotarget for Renal Cell Carcinoma [PDF]
In this era of developing targeted therapies and immunotherapies as a treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC), Programmed death ligand 1 (PDL1) as a novel biomarker for RCC is analysed in our study. About 90% of all renal cancers are Renal Cell Carcinoma. Most cases are diagnosed incidentally. 17% of cases are advanced at the time of diagnosis.

PD-L1 testing for lung cancer in the UK: recognizing the challenges for implementation. [PDF]
A new approach to the management of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has recently emerged that works by manipulating the immune checkpoint controlled by programmed death receptor 1 (PD-1) and its ligand programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1).

Abstract Background: The method to evaluate the efficacy of programmed cell death 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors has become a big concern for researchers with its widely application. Pseudoprogressive disease (PPD) makes this process more difficult, which means that the tumor progressed at ...
