Abstract Immune checkpoint blockade combined with antiangiogenic therapy induces vascular normalization and antitumor immunity is efficacious in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); but whether how initial immunotherapy affects the efficacy of subsequent are unknown. We evaluated a cohort HCC patients (n = 25) who received pan–vascular endothelial growth factor receptor multikinase inhibitor sorafenib after an antiprogrammed cell death protein (PD)–1 antibody found superior outcomes these (12%...

Tumor-draining lymph nodes (TDLNs) are important for tumor antigen–specific T cell generation and effective anticancer immune responses. However, TDLNs often the primary site of metastasis, causing suppression worse outcomes. Through cross-species single-cell RNA-Seq analysis, we identified features defining cancer heterogeneity, plasticity, evasion during breast progression node metastasis (LNM). A subset cells in exhibited elevated MHC class II (MHC-II) gene expression both mice humans....

Dysbiotic microbiota contributes to the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease (CD) by regulating immune system. Although pro-inflammatory microbes are probably enriched in small intestinal (SI) mucosa, most studies have focused on fecal microbiota. This study aimed examine jejunal and ileal mucosal specimens from patients with CD via double-balloon enteroscopy. Comparative microbiome analysis revealed that composition SI mucosa differs non-CD controls, an increased population several families,...

The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is a noninvasive method with which to measure respiratory system resistance (Rrs) and reactance (Xrs) at wide range of frequencies during breathing rest in short time. purpose this study was assess the differences Rrs Xrs between patients chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) asthma using new FOT colored 3-dimensional visualization.Fifty-one stable COPD 49 controlled or partly were enrolled. Whole-breath within-breath changes measured compared...

Clinical application of the forced oscillation technique (FOT) has progressed with spread commercially available FOT devices. The correlation between respiratory impedance and spirometry been reported; however, association airway inflammation pulmonary function, in lung periphery particular, is unclear.To assess whether associated peripheral dysfunction asthma.Subjects included 78 patients overall controlled asthma. We measured whole-breath or within-breath system resistance (Rrs) reactance...

<div>Abstract<p>Patient selection for cancer immunotherapy requires precise, quantitative readouts of biomarker expression in intact tumors that can be reliably compared across multiple subjects over time. The current clinical standard assessing response is PD-L1 expression, typically quantified using IHC. This method, however, only provides snapshots status microscopic regions <i>ex vivo</i> specimens. Although various targeted probes have been investigated...

<div>Abstract<p>Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized the treatment of unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but their impressive efficacy is seen in just a fraction patients. One key mechanism immunotherapy resistance paucity dendritic cells (DC) liver malignancies. In this study, we tested combination blockade PD-1 and CXCR4, receptor for CXCL12, pleiotropic factor that mediates immunosuppression tumors. Using orthotopic grafted autochthonous HCC models with...
