HAVCR2 overexpression

They are identified as independent influencing factors that may trigger adverse prognostic events in patients. These findings suggest that Tim-3 and galectin-9 have potential as new therapeutic targets and clinical indicators.

Additionally, circPVT1 upregulated HAVCR2 expression via sequestering miR-490-5p, thereby orchestrating the migration and invasion in osteosarcoma cells. CircPVT1 orchestrates osteosarcoma migration and invasion by regulating the miR-490-5p/HAVCR2 axis, underscoring its potential as a promising therapeutic target for osteosarcoma.

The I/I-C23 probe has obvious targeting specificity for TIM3 in vitro and in vivo. Our results suggest that I/I-C23 is a promising tracer for TIM3 imaging and may have great potential in monitoring immune checkpoint drug efficacy.

High expression of TIM3 in the upper GI tract cancer is associated with a worse prognosis and advanced T or N stages, indicating its potential value as a prognostic biomarker. These findings may provide a basis for the personalized treatment of upper GI tract cancers.

TIM-3 can promote the proliferation of endometriosis by BDNF-mediated PI3K/AKT axis in vivo and in vitro, which may provide a new therapeutic target for the treatment of endometriosis.

These observations indicate that TIM-3 RNA expression is heterogeneous, but more common in pancreatic cancer and in tumors exploiting PD-L1 and CTLA-4 checkpoints. Clinical trials with patient selection for matched immune-targeted combinations may be warranted.

Sponsored by No funding sources reported Background: While results of the TOPAZ-1 trial led to inclusion of anti-PD-1 therapy with standard of care gemcitabine/cisplatin chemotherapy for patients with unresectable biliary tract cancer (BTC), the improvement in overall survival is modest: 12.8 vs 11.5 mos. This study provides unique insight into the role for targeting the Gal-9/Tim-3 pathway in BTC. Our clinical data highlights that co-expression of these markers in BTC tumors is associated with significantly worse OS. Our in vivo pre-clinical studies demonstrate that blockade of either Gal-9 or Tim-3 synergizes with PD-1 targeted antibodies for superior anti-tumor efficacy.
