The immunoreceptor NKG2D, which is expressed on NK cells and T cell subsets is critically involved in tumor immune surveillance. This applies in particular to acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which evades immune detection by downregulation of NKG2D ligands (

Membrane and Soluble CD137 in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Role as Biomarkers for Disease Activity
Objective. The role of T cells in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has recently gained attention. Costimulatory molecules are membrane proteins strictly associated with T-cell receptor (TCR), acting by activating or inhibiting T ...

Antigen-Specific Polyclonal Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes Induced by Fusions of Dendritic Cells and Tumor Cells [PDF]
The aim of cancer vaccines is induction of tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) that can reduce the tumor mass. Dendritic cells (DCs) are potent antigen-presenting cells and play a central role in the initiation and regulation of primary immune ...

Organoid Models of Tumor Immunology. [PDF]
Cellular interactions in the tumor microenvironment (TME) significantly govern cancer progression and drug response. The efficacy of clinical immunotherapies has fostered an exponential interest in the tumor immune microenvironment, which in turn has engendered a pressing need for robust experimental systems modeling patient-specific tumor-immune ...

At least three times during the history of immunology, investigators proposed that a function of the immune response is to eliminate nascent tumors. Paul Ehrlich initially hypothesized that tumors arise spontaneously in the body and that the immune response protected the individual against the majority of these malignancies.
