This axis could be modulated to reduce PD-1, IL-10, and TGF-β1 expression and the subsequent immune escape. The inhibition of immune escape in the tumor microenvironment can be achieved by controlling the LncRNA HULC-Treg-PD-1 axis.

Our findings demonstrate that IL-38 expression in colorectal regional nodes from CRC patients is inversely correlated with PD-1/PD-L1 but positively correlated with infiltrating CD4+ or CD8+ lymphocytes. The combined assessment of IL-38 and PD-1 expression in colorectal regional nodes emerges as a promising biomarker for predicting the prognosis of CRC.

Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that PD-1 expression in tumor cells was an independent prognostic factor in all histological subtypes. Our study results suggest that PD-1 expression is a poor prognostic factor for overall survival in patients with completely resected adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma.

These results strongly suggest the presence of a feedback mechanism that involves the adenosinergic pathway, the production of TGF-β1, and the upregulation of PD-L1 expression in CeCa cells that suppresses the antitumor response of CTLs. The findings of this study suggest that this pathway may be clinically important and may be a therapeutic target.

In our cohort, the patients with CLL expressed elevated levels of PD-1 and CTLA-4 immune checkpoints on activated and memory B cell subsets. However, there was no correlation between these immune checkpoint expressions and B2M levels.

Metformin blocks both PD-L1 and PD-1 within the tumor microenvironment. This study provided a mechanistic insight into the efficacy of metformin in improving immunotherapy in human cancer.

Based on this evidence, we propose that the regulation of IFN secretion by IRs may be regarded as an "innate checkpoint", reminiscent of the function of "classical" adaptive immune checkpoints, like PD1 expressed in CD8+ T cells, which restrain autoimmunity and immunopathology but favor chronic infections and tumors. However, we also point out that further work is needed to fully unravel the biology of tumor-associated pDCs, the neat contribution of pDC exhaustion in tumor growth following the engagement of IRs, especially those expressed also by other leukocytes, and their therapeutic potential as targets of combined immune checkpoint blockade in cancer immunotherapy.

VACV encodes many immunosuppressive gene products that may interfere with the ability of radiotherapy to induce an effective anti-tumor immune response through the release of danger-associated molecular patterns. These data suggest that infecting irradiated tumors with VACV, too soon after exposure, may interfere in the innate and linked adaptive immune responses that are triggered by radiotherapy to achieve a beneficial impact.

Combination PD-1 and IL-10 blockade signficantly increased cell death in human FLC TSCs. Immunosuppresion in the FLC tumor microenvironment is characterized by T cell exclusion and exhaustion, which may be reversible with combination immunotherapy.

This was not seen in immune cells from naïve samples, indicating that obesity leads to more chronic T cell dysfunction in metastatic lungs. Overall, even without pathogenic interference, obesity contributes to more T cell signaling and impaired CD8+ T cell activation that leads to higher T cell dysfunction once metastasis is present.

Mechanistically, TGF-β1-induced PD-1 expression on Mφ was dependent on SMAD3 and STAT3, which formed a complex at the Pdcd1 promoter. Collectively, our study shows that Mφ adapt to chronic inflammation through TGF-β1-triggered cooperative SMAD3-STAT3 signaling that induces PD-1 expression and modulates Mφ function.
