MHC-II expression

An epigenetic pathway regulates MHC-II expression and function in B cell lymphoma models. (PubMed, J Clin Invest)
These findings suggest that BAP1 may function as a tumor suppressor by regulating the tumor microenvironment and immune response. Our study also establishes the rationale for therapeutic strategies to restore tumor-specific MHC-II expression and enhance immunotherapy outcomes at epigenetic levels in B cell lymphoma treatment.

Peripherally administered TNF inhibitor is not protective against α-synuclein-induced dopaminergic neuronal death in rats. (PubMed, Neurobiol Dis)
To do so, we administered the DN-TNF agent XPro1595 subcutaneously for a period of 12 weeks...Therefore, despite an apparently immunomodulatory effect, this did not suffice to protect against viral vector-derived α-synuclein-induced neurotoxicity. Further studies are warranted to better elucidate the therapeutic potential of soluble TNF inhibitors in PD.

Computational analysis of the functional impact of MHC-II-expressing triple-negative breast cancer. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Remarkably, we identified a prognostic signature comprising 40 significant genes in the MHC-II-expressing tumors in which machine leaning models with the signature successfully predicted patient survival outcomes and the degree of immune infiltration. This study advances our understanding of the immunological basis of cancer progression and suggests promising new directions for therapeutic strategies.

Therefore, local ablation might overcome the current limitations of immunotherapy in PC.

Dendritic cell activation by iron oxide nanoparticles depends on the extracellular environment. (PubMed, Nanoscale Adv)
These findings highlight complex interactions between living systems and nanoparticles, and their potential to mediate context-specific and selective activation of innate immune cells. Our study also emphasizes that results obtained from in vitro experiments must be interpreted with caution, as they may not faithfully represent responses in living systems.

Ubiquitination and degradation of MHC-II by Tim-3 inhibits antiviral immunity. (PubMed, Cell Immunol)
We have thus identified a novel mechanism by which Tim-3 mediates virus immune escape. Manipulating the Tim-3-MHC-II signaling pathway may provide a novel treatment for viral infections.

Adenoviral delivery of the CIITA transgene induces T-cell-mediated killing in glioblastoma organoids. (PubMed, Mol Oncol)
We did not, however, detect evidence of activation of canonical T-cell-mediated cell death pathways. Although the precise mechanism remains to be determined, these findings highlight the potential of AdV-mediated CIITA delivery to enhance T-cell-mediated immunity against GB.

Suppression of melanoma by mice lacking MHC-II: Mechanisms and implications for cancer immunotherapy. (PubMed, J Exp Med)
Acute disruption of H2-Aa was therapeutic in melanoma-bearing mice, particularly when combined with checkpoint inhibition, which had no therapeutic effect by itself. Our findings suggest that inhibiting MHC-II may be an effective immunotherapeutic approach to enhance immune responses to cancer.

Immunological responses to brain metastasis stereotactic radiosurgery in patient-matched longitudinal blood and tumour samples. (PubMed, Clin Transl Radiat Oncol)
A sizeable proportion of T cell clonotypes were retained post-SRS, and four clones demonstrated significant, non-stochastic expansion. Systemic and local immunological changes in this homogenous patient cohort suggest that SRS may facilitate MHC-II-restricted T cell priming responses involving the monocyte-macrophage lineage and CD4+ T cells, which should be further explored.

PDCD4 deficiency in hepatocytes exacerbates nonalcoholic steatohepatitis through enhanced MHC class II transactivator expression. (PubMed, Metabolism)
Additionally, both cellular and animal studies show that CIITA promotes lipid accumulation in hepatocytes and exacerbates NASH progression. In summary, our findings reveal a novel role of PDCD4 in regulating CIITA and MHCII expression during NASH development, offering new therapeutic approaches for NASH treatment.

Platinum-based chemotherapy promotes antigen presenting potential in monocytes of patients with high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
Our data also demonstrated that chemotherapy inhibited interferon-dependent signaling pathways, but activated some TGFb-related genes. Our results can enable personalized decision regarding the necessity to systemically re-educate immune cells to prime ovarian cancer to respond to anti-cancer therapy or to improve personalized prescription of existing immunotherapy in either combination with chemotherapy or a monotherapy regimen.

Although PBMC viability had increased, there was no evidence of enhanced T-cell activation. This system can be used to identify additional factors required to promote activation of naïve devil T-cells in vitro.
