Collagen I enhances the efficiency and anti-tumor activity of dendritic-tumor fusion cells
Low fusion efficiency and nominal activity of fusion cells (FCs) restrict the clinical application of dendritic cell (DC)/tumor fusion cells. Collagen I (Col I) is an interstitial collagen with a closely-knit structure used to repair damaged cell ...

A mathematical study of the interaction between oxygen and lactate in an in-vivo and in-vitro tumor [PDF]
Micro-environmental acidity is a common feature of the tumor. One of the causes behind tumor acidity is lactate production by hypoxic cells of the tumor. Hypoxia is a direct result of the establishment of oxygen gradients. It is commonly observed in the tumor in an in-vitro experimental setup and also in-vivo situation.

Mathematical modeling of tumor therapy with oncolytic viruses: Effects of parametric heterogeneity on cell dynamics [PDF]
One of the mechanisms that ensure cancer robustness is tumor heterogeneity, and its effects on tumor cells dynamics have to be taken into account when studying cancer progression. There is no unifying theoretical framework in mathematical modeling of carcinogenesis that would account for parametric heterogeneity.

Suppression of Exosomal PD-L1 Induces Systemic Anti-tumor Immunity and Memory. [PDF]
PD-L1 on the surface of tumor cells binds its receptor PD-1 on effector T cells, thereby suppressing their activity. Antibody blockade of PD-L1 can activate an anti-tumor immune response leading to durable remissions in a subset of cancer patients ...

Immune targets in the tumor microenvironment treated by radiotherapy. [PDF]
Radiotherapy (RT), the major anti-cancer modality for more than half of cancer patients after diagnosis, has the advantage of local tumor control with relatively less systematic side effects comparing to chemotherapy.
