CD47 expression

Subsequently, we employed reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and flow cytometry analysis to examine and compare CD47 expression across human ovarian surface epithelial cell line (HOSE), SKOV3, and ES2 cells and to characterize the changes in CD47 expression in SKOV3 and ES2 cells after cisplatin treatment...CD47 is highly expressed in ovarian cancer, and NACT increases the expression of CD47, which may contribute to tumor immune evasion. It is possible that platinum-based chemotherapy may result in elevated CD47 mRNA expression and cell surface CD47 protein expression.

Advanced research hints that SPAG4 might achieve immune evasion by increasing CD47 expression, consequently reducing phagocytosis. These findings highlight SPAG4 as a potential GBM therapeutic target and emphasize the complexity of the immune microenvironment in GBM progression.

Our study demonstrates that PUS7 promotes the inhibition of CD47 and inhibits metastasis of PTC cells by regulating the ψ modification of pre-miR-8082. These results suggest that PUS7 and ψ pre-miR-8082 may serve as potential targets and diagnostic markers for PTC metastasis.

Lastly, microglia reactivity increased with age in association with the changes in C1q and CD47. Together, these results suggest disruption in the balance of "eat me" and "don't eat me" signals during normal aging, biasing microglia toward increased reactivity and phagocytosis of myelin, resulting in cognitive deficits.

Unlike CD47-targeted agents, ES004-B5 exhibits an excellent safety profile in nonhuman primates. ES004-B5 has potential to be an important backbone for SIRPα-based combination therapy and/or bispecific antibodies, which will likely overcome the limitations of CD47-targeted agents encountered in clinical settings.

Infiltration by large numbers of CD68-IT cells was much more common among patients with a high expression of CD47 in tumor cells. A high level of infiltration by CD68-ST cells was associated with a worse prognosis, and a high level of infiltration by CD68-ST cells was associated with a lower risk of death from cancer.

CD47 expression led to reduced tumor-infiltrating macrophages during progression, while there was a post-xenograft increase in tumor-associated macrophages. In conclusion, CD47 is pivotal in early lung cancer progression, with soluble CD47 emerging as a key pathological effector.

A robust association exists between CD47 and the exhaustion of CD8 + T cells, potentially enabling immune evasion by cancer cells and thereby contributing to adverse prognostic outcomes.

This study highlights the potential of the CD47 molecule as a promising immunotherapeutic target in STS, particularly given its elevated expression levels in diverse sarcoma types. Our data showed a notable trend linking CD47 expression to tumor grade, while also suggesting an interesting correlation between enhanced abundance of CD47 expression and a reduced hazard risk of disease progression. Although these findings shed light on different roles of CD47 in STS, further research is crucial to assess its potential in clinical settings.

This indicates that SIRPα-Fc has CD47-mediated agonist activities in breast cancer stem cells affecting proliferation and metastasis pathways that differ from those of CC-90002. This SIRPα-induced CD47 signaling in breast carcinoma cells may limit the efficacy of SIRPα decoy therapeutics intended to stimulate innate antitumor immune responses.

These profiles have been derived from a single gene through alternative splicing and post-translational modifications, such as glycosylation, pyroglutamate modification, glycosaminoglycan modification, and proteolytic cleavage and, to some extent, via specific CD47 clustering in aging and tumor cells and the regulation of its subcellular localization by a pre-translational modification, alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA).

Moreover, P4HA3 caused colon cancer cells to secrete Interleukin 34 (IL34) and Macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), which further induced macrophages to differentiate to M2 type and thereby contributed to the progression of colon cancer. We have demonstrated that P4HA3-driven CD47 overexpression may act as an escape mechanism, causing colon cancer cells to evade phagocytosis from macrophages.

BC404-UCART cells significantly inhibited tumor growth and prolonged the survival of mice in the xenograft model. The anti-tumor activity of BC404-UCART cells was achieved via two mechanisms, on the one hand, the UCAR-T cells directly killed tumor cells, on the other hand, the BC404-UCART cells enhanced the phagocytosis of macrophages by secreting anti-CD47 nanobody hu404-hfc fusion that blocked the "don't eat me" signal between macrophages and tumor cells, which provides a potential strategy for the development of novel "off-the-shelf" cellular immunotherapies for the treatment of multiple myeloma.
