Immunotherapy is the most promising systemic therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma. However, outcome remains poor. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) plays a role in altering cell-surface protein levels, potentially undermining efficacy of immunotherapy against tumors. This highlights its potential as target antitumor therapy. Herein, CaCO3-based nanoparticles coencapsulated with DOX, an immunogenic cell death (ICD) inducer, and evolocumab was developed to enhanced immunotherapy. The obtained DOX/evolocumab-loaded CaCO3 nanoparticle (named DECP) exhibits good capacity acid neutralization causes ICD cancer cells. In addition, DECP able evaluate level MHC-I, biomarker that correlates positively patients' overall survival.

Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a pleiotropic cytokine that has fundamental role in modulating inflammation and maintaining cell homeostasis. It primarily acts as an anti-inflammatory cytokine, protecting the body from uncontrolled immune response, mostly through Jak1/Tyk2 STAT3 signaling pathway. On other hand, IL-10 can also have immunostimulating functions under certain conditions. Given pivotal of modulation, this could relevant implications pathologies characterized by hyperinflammatory state, such cancer, or infectious diseases case COVID-19 Post-COVID-19 syndrome.

Immunotherapy has become a key therapeutic strategy in the treatment of many cancers. As result, research efforts have been aimed at understanding mechanisms resistance to immunotherapy and how anti-tumor immune response can be therapeutically enhanced. It shown that tumor cell recognition by system plays role effective T targeting therapies patients. One mechanism which cells avoid immunosurveillance is through downregulation Major Histocompatibility Complex I (MHC-I). Downregulation MHC-I described as intrinsic acquired patients with cancer. Depending on mechanism, sometimes restored aid immunity. In this article, we will review current its impact patients, well possible strategies for upregulation MHC-I.

PURPOSE Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have extended survival in patients with non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), acquired resistance (AR) to ICI frequently develops after an initial benefit. However, the mechanisms of AR NSCLC are largely unknown. METHODS Comprehensive tumor genomic profiling, machine learning–based assessment tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, multiplexed immunofluorescence, and/or HLA-I immunohistochemistry (IHC) were performed on matched pre- and post-ICI biopsies from treated at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute who developed ICI. Two additional cohorts intervening chemotherapy or targeted therapies between included as controls. RESULTS We comprehensive profiling immunophenotypic characterization samples 82 compared findings a control cohort non-ICI (chemotherapy, N = 32; therapies, 89; both, 17). Putative mutations identified 27.8% immunotherapy-treated cases loss-of-function STK11, B2M, APC, MTOR, KEAP1, JAK1/ 2; these alterations not observed groups. Immunophenotyping demonstrated significant decreases intratumoral CD3e + CD8a T cells, PD-L1–PD1 engagement, well increased distance cells CD8 PD-1 cells. There was decrease HLA class I expression immunotherapy time ( P .005) therapy .01) cohorts. CONCLUSION These highlight heterogeneity NSCLC, which will need be considered when developing novel therapeutic strategies aimed overcoming resistance.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most lethal central nervous systems (CNS) tumours in adults. As supplements to standard care (SOC), various immunotherapies improve therapeutic effect other cancers. Among them, tumour vaccines can serve as complementary monotherapy or boost clinical efficacy with immunotherapies, such immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) and chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T) therapy. Previous studies GBM have suggested that few neoantigens could be targeted due low mutation burden, single-peptide vaccination had limited control monotherapy. Combining diverse antigens, including neoantigens, tumour-associated antigens (TAAs), pathogen-derived optimizing vaccine design strategy may help improvement. In this review, we discussed current platforms, evaluated potential antigenic targets, challenges, perspective opportunities for

However, development of relapses to recognized poor patient outcomes. Multiple therapies have been other lymphomas resistance mechanisms investigated. underlying relapse MCL not investigated whether any previously reported apply BA-relapsed unknown. Methods To interrogate MCL, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing on 39 longitudinally collected samples from 15 BA-treated patients, multiplex cytokine profiling 80 serial 20 patients.
