NK cells are key mediators of immune cell-mediated cytotoxicity toward infected and transformed cells, being one the main executors cell death in system. recognize target through an array inhibitory activating receptors for endogenous or exogenous pathogen-derived ligands, which together with adhesion molecules form a structure known as immunological synapse that regulates effector functions. The best characterized mechanisms involved granule exocytosis pathway (perforin/granzymes) expression ligands. These pathways recognized activators different programmes on leading to their destruction. However, most studies analyzing these have used pure recombinant native proteins instead intact and, thus, extrapolation results might be difficult. Specially, since activation and/or ligands during elimination influenced by stimulus received from other microenvironment components, affect activated cells. Here we will review discuss available experimental evidence how kill special focus modalities been found cytotoxicity; including apoptosis more inflammatory like necroptosis pyroptosis. In light this new evidence, develop concept induced regulatory mechanism linking innate response tumour adaptive T responses, initiating trigger cancer-immunity cycle. use modulation molecular machinery regulating them not only but, addition, generation responses against would contribute efficient generate cancer memory preventing potential recurrences.

Trastuzumab as a first HER2-targeted therapy for the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer patients was introduced in 1998. Although trastuzumab has opened new avenue to treat with and other types cancer, some are not responsive or become resistant this treatment. So far, several mechanisms have been suggested mode action trastuzumab; however, findings regarding these controversial. In review, we aimed provide detailed insight into various trastuzumab.

Abstract In the past decade, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy has emerged as a promising immunotherapeutic approach for combating cancers, demonstrating remarkable efficacy in relapsed/refractory hematological malignancies both pediatric and adult patients. CAR-natural killer (CAR-NK) complements CAR-T by offering several distinct advantages. CAR-NK cells do not require HLA compatibility exhibit low safety concerns. Moreover, are conducive to “off-the-shelf” therapeutics, providing significant logistic advantages over cells. Both have shown consistent results malignancies. However, their against solid tumors remains limited due various obstacles including tumor trafficking infiltration, well an immuno-suppressive microenvironment. this review, we discuss recent advances current challenges of immunotherapies, with specific focus on application tumors. We also analyze depth drawbacks compared highlight CAR optimization. Finally, explore future perspectives these adoptive highlighting increasing contribution cutting-edge biotechnological tools shaping next generation cellular immunotherapy.

Abstract Immunotherapy has rapidly evolved in the past decades battle against cancer. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-engineered T cells have demonstrated significant success certain hematologic malignancies, although they still face limitations, including high costs and toxic effects. Natural killer (NK cells), as a vital component of immune system, serve “first responders” context cancer development. In this literature review, we provide an updated understanding NK cell development, functions, their applications disease therapy. Furthermore, explore rationale for utilizing engineered therapies, such CAR-NK cells, discuss differences between CAR-T cells. We also insights into key elements strategies involved CAR design addition, highlight challenges currently encountered future directions research utilization, pre-clinical investigations ongoing clinical trials. Based on outstanding antitumor potential it is highly likely that will lead to groundbreaking advancements treatment future.
