LAG3 expression

LUAD patients with short ALK fusion variant-driven tumors exhibited worse prognosis than those with long ALK fusion variant-driven tumors. The tumor immune microenvironments are heterogeneous across different ALK fusion variants with short variants characterized by higher levels of TIL, especially NK cells, but by less TLS development than long variants ALK+ LUAD, which disfavor disease outcomes.

Hence, targeting YY1 in CD8 T cells will result in restoring the anti-tumor immune response and tumor regression. Notably, in addition to the beneficial effects of targeting YY1 in CD8 T cells to inhibit the expression of inhibitory receptors, we also suggest targeting YY1 overexpressed in the tumor cells, which will also inhibit PD-L1 expression and other YY1-associated pro-tumorigenic activities.

The prognostic prediction model has good predictive value. In MSS CRC, TFC cells function mostly in T cell activation and the cell cycle and have low expression of immune checkpoint molecules, which may influence the effectiveness of ICB therapy. TFC cells may regulate antitumor function by regulating CD19+ CD38+ B cells and TLSs.

Moreover, in the anti-PD-1 monotherapy treatment group patients with high LAG-3 expression by tumor cells tended to have a shorter progression-free survival (p = 0.088), whereas high expression of TIM-3 was associated with a significantly longer overall survival (p = 0.007). In conclusion, we provide a systematic analysis of melanoma cell intrinsic LAG-3 and TIM-3 expression, highlighting potential implications of their expression on patient survival.

Notably, ctDNA may offer valuable insights into the efficacy of T cell-engaging bispecific molecules, such as tebentafusp. The review provides a comprehensive overview of the evolving landscape of melanoma biomarkers, their role in personalizing treatment, and future research directions, including neoadjuvant immune checkpoint inhibition.

NSCLC tumor microenvironment impacts ICR expressions in NK cells, and ICR-expressing NK cells have impaired inflammatory cytokine secretion and cytotoxic activities with a regulatory phenotype. However, tumor-draining venous blood did not reflect the immune status of the tumor tissue.

This review summarizes the current preclinical and clinical studies on LAG-3, highlighting the potential of therapeutic regimens targeting LAG-3 to enhance antitumor immunity and improve patients' outcomes. Further studies are needed to fully elucidate the mechanism of action of LAG-3 and optimize its application in tumor therapy.

The IME of HCC is closely related to AVT and AIF. e-AVT can enhance anti-tumor activities in the IME by alleviating inflammation and fibrosis.

Furthermore, compared to UN-TIL and TIL-mIL15+IL2 cells, TIL-mIL15-IL2 cells showed significantly lower expression levels of inhibitory receptors LAG3, TIGIT, and TIM3, which was consistent with the RNA-Seq results. This study demonstrates the superior persistence of TIL-mIL15-IL2 cells, which may serve as a novel treatment strategy for lung cancer patients.

These gated CAR-T cells exhibited lower expression of exhaustion markers (PD1, Tim3, LAG3, and CD39), higher frequency of memory T cells (CD62L+CD45RA+), and enhanced expansion. While targeting AML, the moderated circuit CAR signal also helped to mitigate cytokine release syndrome, potentially addressing one of the ongoing challenges in CAR-T immunotherapy.

Our findings highlight T cell exhaustion's significance in lung adenocarcinoma responses to ICIs and suggest the 25-gene signature as a potential universal biomarker to reinforce precision medicine. This was registered under Clinical Trial registration number NCT02534649.
