Prognostic Value of Programmed Death Ligand 1 and Programmed Death 1 Expression in Thymic Carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cancer Research, 2016
Abstract Purpose: The immune checkpoint of the programmed death 1/programmed death ligand 1 (PD-1/PD-L1) pathway is believed to play an important role in evasion of host antitumor immune surveillance in various malignancies; however, little is known about its role in thymic carcinoma.

High Expression of PD-L1 Is Associated with Better Survival in Pancreatic/Periampullary Cancers and Correlates with Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
Periampullary cancers (PACs) are characterized by tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), severe fibrosis, and epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Anti-programmed cell death protein-1/ligand-1 therapy in different cancers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Immunologic checkpoint blockade with antibodies against the programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) or its ligand (PD-L1) is an effective method for reversing cancer immunosuppression and thereby promoting immune responses against several cancer types ...

Programmed death-1 (PD-1) ligand 1 and PD-1 ligand 2 expressions and their clinical relevance in colorectal cancer [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2017
Purpose Programmed death-1 and its ligands (PD-L1 and PD-L2) can induce T-cell apoptosis in many solid tumors, although there is limited information regarding their roles in colorectal cancer.

Pneumonitis in Patients Treated With Anti–Programmed Death-1/Programmed Death Ligand 1 Therapy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Oncology, 2017
Purpose Pneumonitis is an uncommon but potentially fatal toxicity of anti–programmed death-1 (PD-1)/programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Clinical, radiologic, and pathologic features are poorly described. Methods Patients who received anti–PD-1/PD-L1 monotherapy or in combination with anti–cytotoxic T-cell lymphocyte ...

Targeting Programmed Death 1/Programmed Death Ligand 1 in Lymphoma: A Game Changer [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Oncology Practice, 2016
Programmeddeath 1 (PD-1)/programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) engagement is a physiologic process that inhibits the overactivation of T cells and thus serves to maintain self-tolerance and prevent autoimmunity. This mechanism is frequently hijacked by tumor cells, including lymphoma, when they aberrantly express PD-L1 (and PD-L2) proteins; however, this ...

Nivolumab Enhances In Vitro Effector Functions of PD-1+ T-Lymphocytes and Leishmania-Infected Human Myeloid Cells in a Host Cell-Dependent Manner

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
Functional impairment of T-cells and a concomitant augmented expression of programmed death-1 (PD-1) have been observed in visceral leishmaniasis patients, as well as in experimental models for visceral and cutaneous leishmaniasis.

PD-L1 testing for lung cancer in the UK: recognizing the challenges for implementation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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).

Anti program death-1/anti program death-ligand 1 in digestive cancers

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastrointestinal Oncology, 2015
Human tumors tend to activate the immune system regulatory checkpoints as a means of escaping immunosurveillance. For instance, interaction between program death-1 (PD-1) and program death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) will lead the activated T cell to a state of anergy. PD-L1 is upregulated on a wide range of cancer cells.

Differential Requirement for CD70 and CD80/CD86 in Dendritic Cellmediated Activation of Tumor Tolerized CD8 T Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A major obstacle to efficacious T cell-based cancer immunotherapy is the tolerizing-tumor microenvironment that rapidly inactivates tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes.
