CD8 overexpression

SLC2A3 is associated with changes in the TME and prognostic indicators. Moreover, high SLC2A3 expression in CD8+ T cells may drive cell death through ferroptosis, fostering tumor progression.

CXADR can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and promote the apoptosis. JAML agonist can effectively treat colorectal cancer by regulating CD8+ T cells.

Additionally, the survival analysis revealed that high expression of CD8 was associated with better disease-specific survival and progression-free survival in PDAC patients. These findings highlight the potential of CD8, CD68, and VISTA as diagnostic and prognostic indicators in PDAC.

BATF3 induces Th9 cell differentiation by binding to the IL-9 promoter through a BATF3/IRF4 complex. One of the latest research findings is the oncogenic function of BATF3, which has been approved and illustrated in several biological processes of proliferation and invasion.

Patients underwent neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy (sintilimab combined with nab-paclitaxel and carboplatin) for two to three cycles prior to surgical resection of the lung carcinoma and systematic nodal dissection within 30-45 days. Consequently, the treatment landscape for potentially resectable IIIA/IIIB NSCLC could undergo changes. This study did not receive any financial support.

FAM131B-AS2 emerges as a promising indicator for adjuvant therapy response and could also be a viable candidate for combined immunotherapies against GBMs.

Moreover, giving MSI-H tumors are often diagnosed at early stage and have favorable outcomes, less aggressive treatment strategies may be considered in clinical practice. In summary, this panoramic review may assist in design and/or interpretation of clinical trials, provide references in drug development, and constitute complementary information in drafting the clinical practice guideline.

Dual IHC staining show that tumor infiltrating CD8 T cells localize in proximity of CXCL12+ tumor area. Moreover, CXCL12 and/or CXCR4 antibodies confirm the immunosuppressive role of CXCL12-CXCR4 in high-stromal tumors.

These data demonstrated that the transfer of GPR84 from MDSCs to CD8 T cells induces T-cell senescence via the p53 signaling pathway, which could explain the strong immunosuppression of GPR84 endowed to MDSCs.

Image analysis revealed that TDB treatment induced T cell-mediated cytotoxicity in four patients, with sub-optimal TDB-induced cytotoxicity observed in two patients, highlighting intrinsic resistance mechanisms to TDB treatment and the need for greater mechanistic understanding. Notably, all patients' effector cells exhibited upregulation of CD69, a T cell activation marker, after 24 hours post-TDB treatment which was sustained for 72 hours. TDB treatment also led to the upregulation of CD25, starting at 24 hours and peaking 72 hours post-treatment.

In our phase II clinical trial, 34 liver cancer were enrolled with 3-year follow-up, it also has a satisfactory performance in predicting the ORR (AUC=0.699) and classifies mortality rate (HR=2.3). Conclusions Our findings identify a distinct transcriptional pattern of DNA-pol genes across cancers, which highlighted the role of DNA-pol family genes in predicting the immunotherapy response for the first time, and TERT could be a novel vaccine candidate for improving immunotherapy response.

Overall, METTL3, YTHDF2, and NLRC5 have potential to be the diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for EC. METTL3 facilitated the m6A modifications of NLRC5 and inhibited its degradation through a YTHDF2-dependent mechanism in EC. Genetic overexpression of METTL3 attenuated the immune evasion of EC by promoting NLRC5-mediated immunosurveillance, suggesting that the METTL3/YTHDF2/NLRC5 axis is a promising target of immunotherapy in EC.

Our findings identify a distinct transcriptional pattern of DNA-pol genes across cancers, which highlighted the role of DNA-pol family genes predicting the immunotherapy response for the first time, and TERT could be a novel vaccine candidate for improving immunotherapy response.

Hepatic TM6SF2 protects against NAFLD-HCC development by activating anti-tumor immunity through NF-κB-G-CSF axis to activate cytotoxic CD8+ T cell function. TM6SF2 is a novel therapeutic target to increase response to anti-PD1 immunotherapy in NAFLD-HCC.

SQLE inhibitor terbinafine was given in combination with anti-PD1 therapy in mouse models of NASH-HCC...Conclusions : SQLE induces an impaired antitumor response in NASH-HCC via attenuating tumor-infiltrating CD8 + T cell effector function and augmenting immunosuppressive MDSCs, an effect dependent on cholesterol biosynthesis. SQLE is a promising target in potentiating anti-PD-1 immunotherapy for NASH-HCC.

Interestingly, all these pro-immune changes observed with avuto were stronger than those observed with an equivalent dose level of the MEK-only inhibitor trametinib. Furthermore, all complete responders in the avuto + anti-PD-1 group were able to reject a re-challenge with CT26 tumor cells and showed increased CD8 and CD4 effector memory T cells relative to untreated naïve control mice, indicating that avuto + anti-PD-1 treatment induces durable immune memory. These results support clinical evaluation of avutometinib in combination with an anti-PD-1 antibody for treatment of patients with solid tumors harboring MAPK pathway alterations such as KRAS or BRAF mutations.

GITR is overexpressed on CD4 and CD8 TIL from pMMR CRC and CRLM. Agonistic targeting of GITR enhances ex vivo human TIL functionality and may therefore be a promising approach for novel mono- or combined immunotherapies in primary pMRR CRC and CRLM.

Importantly, their ability to couple glycolysis and OXPHOS allowed them to sustain proliferation under glucose restriction. Our findings demonstrate a hitherto unknown role for FOXP3 in the adaptation of CD8 T cells to TME that may enhance their efficacy in ACT.

HOXA11-AS1 promoted PD-L1 expression by upregulating FOSL1 levels through PTBP1, thereby facilitating immune escape, proliferation, and metastasis of HSCC cells.

Our findings uncover the pleiotropic effects of 1α,25(OH)D in rescuing the exhausted phenotype of human cytotoxic T cells in patients with tumor and in promoting their antitumor immunity.

Suppressing CD155/TIGIT exerted anti-cancer effects against CRC and our findings provided a potential therapeutic approach to treat CRC.

The use of CIMVsIL2 can be effective in the treatment of triple negative breast cancer, since CIMVsIL2 are able to activate and stimulate the proliferation of Tkillers. However, further studies of CIMVs efficiency in animal tumor models are required.

In the local-NSCLC cohort, we found that the group with a high number of mutations had a significantly higher tumor mutation burden (TMB) and PD-L1 expression. High mutation status in the lipid metabolism pathway is associated with significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) in NSCLC, indicating that this marker can be used as a predictive indicator for patients with NSCLC receiving ICIs.

VV-A34/IL2v led to higher serum IL-2 and greater tumor expression of death receptor ligand TRAIL, but VV-GMCSF led to higher serum GM-CSF, greater expression of leukocyte chemokines and adhesion molecules, and more neutrophil recruitment. Together, the results show that antitumor activity is similarly increased by viral expression of GM-CSF or IL-2v combined with additional genetic modifications.

Severely exhausted PD-1 CD39 CD8 TILs displayed a distinctly heterogeneous exhaustion and activation status determined by differential 4-1BB expression levels, providing rationale and evidence for immunotherapies targeting co-stimulatory receptor 4-1BB in ovarian cancers.

However, further studies of CIMVs efficiency in animal tumor models are required. This study was supported by the Russian Science Foundation grant 18-74-10044 and the Russian Government Program of Competitive Growth of KFU.
