Abstract Immunotherapies have revolutionized the treatment paradigms of various types cancers. However, most these immunomodulatory strategies focus on harnessing adaptive immunity, mainly by inhibiting immunosuppressive signaling with immune checkpoint blockade, or enhancing immunostimulatory bispecific T cell engager and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell. Although agents already achieved great success, only a tiny percentage patients could benefit from immunotherapies. Actually, immunotherapy efficacy is determined multiple components in tumor microenvironment beyond immunity. Cells innate arm system, such as macrophages, dendritic cells, myeloid-derived suppressor neutrophils, natural killer unconventional also participate cancer evasion surveillance. Considering that cornerstone antitumor response, utilizing immunity provides potential therapeutic options for control. Up to now, exploiting agonists stimulator interferon genes, CAR-macrophage -natural therapies, metabolic regulators, novel exhibited potent activities preclinical clinical studies. Here, we summarize latest insights into roles cells discuss advances arm-targeted strategies.

Abstract As a newly identified checkpoint, T cell immunoreceptor with immunoglobulin and tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) domain (TIGIT) is highly expressed on CD4 + cells, CD8 natural killer (NK) regulatory cells (Tregs), tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). TIGIT has been associated NK exhaustion in vivo individuals various cancers. It not only modulates survival but also mediates exhaustion. the primary ligand of humans, CD155 may be main target for immunotherapy due to its interaction TIGIT. found that anti-programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) treatment response cancer correlated Anti-TIGIT alone combination anti-PD-1 agents have tested immunotherapy. Although two clinical studies advanced lung had positive results, TIGIT-targeted antibody, tiragolumab, recently failed new trials. In this review, we highlight current developments discuss characteristics functions

The tumor microenvironment (TME) is integral to cancer progression, impacting metastasis and treatment response. It consists of diverse cell types, extracellular matrix components, signaling molecules that interact promote growth therapeutic resistance. Elucidating the intricate interactions between cells TME crucial in understanding progression challenges. A critical process induced by epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), wherein epithelial acquire mesenchymal traits, which enhance their motility invasiveness progression. By targeting various components TME, novel investigational strategies aim disrupt TME's contribution EMT, thereby improving efficacy, addressing resistance, offering a nuanced approach therapy. This review scrutinizes key players emphasizing avenues therapeutically components. Moreover, article discusses implications for resistance mechanisms highlights current toward modulation along with potential caveats.

Recent advances in neoantigen research have accelerated the development of tumor immunotherapies, including adoptive cell therapies (ACTs), cancer vaccines and antibody-based therapies, particularly for solid tumors. With next-generation sequencing bioinformatics technology, rapid identification prediction tumor-specific antigens (TSAs) has become possible. Compared with tumor-associated (TAAs), highly immunogenic TSAs provide new targets personalized immunotherapy can be used as prospective indicators predicting patient survival, prognosis, immune checkpoint blockade response. Here, characterization neoantigens clinical application neoantigen-based TCR-T strategies are summarized, current status, inherent challenges, translational potential these discussed.
