Background Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play a key immunosuppressive role that limits the ability of immune system to fight cancer and hinder antitumoral efficacy most treatments currently applied in clinic. Previous studies have evaluated response triggered by (TLR) agonists, such as poly(I:C), imiquimod (R837) or resiquimod (R848) monotherapies; however, their combination for treatment has not been explored. This study investigates macrophage reprogramming poly(I:C) combined with...
Immunotherapy resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) may be mediated by an immunosuppressive microenvironment, which can shaped the mutational landscape of tumor. Here, we observed genetic alterations PTEN/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and/or loss PTEN expression >25% patients with NSCLC, higher frequency squamous carcinomas (LUSC). Patients PTEN-low tumors had levels PD-L1 and PD-L2 showed worse progression-free survival when treated immunotherapy. Development a Pten-null LUSC mouse model...
Mortality rates for advanced lung cancer have not declined decades, even with the implementation of novel chemotherapeutic regimens or use tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) are thought to be responsible resistance chemo/radiotherapy. Therefore, targeting CSCs compounds may an effective approach reduce tumor growth and metastasis. We isolated characterized from non-small cell (NSCLC) lines measured their telomerase activity, telomere length, sensitivity inhibitor MST312.The...
The use of immune-checkpoint inhibitors has drastically improved the management patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but innate and acquired resistances are hurdles needed to be solved. Immunomodulatory drugs that can reinvigorate immune cytotoxic activity, in combination antiprogrammed death 1 (PD-1) antibody, a great promise overcome resistance. We evaluated impact SRC family kinases (SFKs) on NSCLC prognosis, immunomodulatory effect SFK inhibitor dasatinib, anti-PD-1,...
Background One of the main difficulties adoptive cell therapies with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells in solid tumors is identification specific target antigens. The tumor microenvironment can present suitable antigens for CAR design, even though they are not expressed by cells. We have generated a splice variant extra domain A (EDA) fibronectin, which highly stroma many types but healthy tissues. Methods EDA expression was explored RNA-seq data from different human and...
Abstract Immunotherapies against brain metastases have shown clinical benefits when applied to asymptomatic patients, but they are largely ineffective in symptomatic cases for unknown reasons. Here, we dissect the heterogeneity metastasis-associated astrocytes using single-cell RNA sequencing and report a population that blocks antitumoral activity of infiltrating T cells. This protumoral is mediated by secretion tissue inhibitor metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP1) from cluster pSTAT3+ acts on CD63+...
