PD-L1 on the surface of tumor cells binds its receptor PD-1 effector T cells, thereby suppressing their activity. Antibody blockade can activate an anti-tumor immune response leading to durable remissions in a subset cancer patients. Here, we describe alternative mechanism activity involving secretion tumor-derived exosomes. Removal exosomal inhibits growth, even models resistant anti-PD-L1 antibodies. Exosomal from suppresses cell activation draining lymph node. Systemically introduced...

Abstract The landscape of cancer treatment has been transformed by immune checkpoint inhibitors; however, the failure to benefit a large number patients with underlined need identify promising targets for more effective interventions. In this study, we leverage 23andMe, Inc.’s large-scale human germline genetic and health database uncover previously unknown role UL16-binding protein 6 (ULBP6), high-affinity NK group 2D (NKG2D) ligand, in its promise as an immuno-oncology therapeutic target....
