Abstract The role of IL-33, particularly in tumor growth and immunity, remains ill-defined. We show that exogenous IL-33 can induce robust antitumor effect through a CD8+ T cell–dependent mechanism. Systemic administration rIL-33 alone was sufficient to inhibit established tumors transplant de novo melanoma tumorigenesis models. Notably, addition direct action on cell expansion IFN-γ production, therapy activated myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs) tumor-bearing mice, restored activity, increased...
Abstract Agonist antibodies (Ab) directed against costimulatory molecules on the surface of antigen-primed T cells are in various stages pre-clinical and clinical trials, albeit with limited therapeutic benefit as single agents. The underlying mechanisms action remain incompletely understood. Here, we demonstrate an inhibitory role ecto-enzyme CD73 for agonistic anti-4-1BB/CD137 Ab therapy. In particular, anti-4-1BB treatment preferentially drives − effector cell response tumor inhibition....
