Role of tumor architecture in elicitation of effector functions of human cytotoxic T-lymphocytes recognizing melanoma associated antigens [PDF]
Growth in 3D architectures has been shown to promote the resistance of cancers to treatment with drugs, cytokines, or irradiation, thereby potentially playing an important role in tumor expansion.

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes in regional lymph nodes in colon cancer
Background. The study of the subpopulation composition of cytotoxic T lymphocytes and the expression of co-inhibitory proteins on their surface in regional lymph nodes is necessary for the development of new methods of targeted therapy for colorectal ...

Cytotoxic Granule Exocytosis From Human Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes Is Mediated by VAMP7
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes kill infected or malignant cells through the directed release of cytotoxic substances at the site of target cell contact, the immunological synapse.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Adoptive Immunotherapy in Chimeras with Donor Lymphocytes [PDF]
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation has a well-defined indication in the treatment of hematological malignancies. The beneficial immune effect of allogeneic marrow transplantation has long been known, but only recently have methods been developed to ...

Cytotoxic CD4+ T cells: origin, biological functions, diseases and therapeutic targets
Cytotoxic CD4+ T lymphocytes are a unique subset of CD4+ T cells characterized by their cytokine secretion and cytolytic activity. Unlike traditional CD4+ helper T cells, cytotoxic CD4+ T lymphocytes exhibit similar cytotoxicity to that of CD8+ T cells ...

Adoptive cancer immunotherapy using DNA-demethylated T helper cells as antigen-presenting cells
A critical determinant of tumor eradication by adoptive immunotherapy is the tumor associated antigen recognized by cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Here the authors generate ex vivo autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes by exposure to antigens induced by DNA ...
