Neutrophils are abundant immune cells in the circulation and frequently infiltrate tumors substantial numbers. However, their precise functions different cancer types remain incompletely understood, including brain microenvironment. We therefore investigated neutrophils tumor tissue of glioma metastasis patients, with matched peripheral blood, herein describe first in-depth analysis neutrophil phenotypes these tissues. Orthogonal profiling strategies humans mice revealed that...
Abstract Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have significantly improved the outcome of non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs). However, cancer response to ICIs occurs in a fraction patients and correlates with presence tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). Thus, methods increase TILs within are urgently needed. Previously, murine model malignant pleural mesothelioma, we described mechanism by which low dose photodynamic therapy (L-PDT) enhanced vascular expression E-selectin favored...

ObjectiveMalignant pleural mesothelioma is a fatal disease and clinical challenge, as few effective treatment modalities are available. Previous evidence links the gut microbiome to host immunoreactivity tumors. We thus evaluated impact of novel modulator compound (MMC) on microbiota composition, tumor immune microenvironment, cancer control in model malignant mesothelioma.MethodsAge- weight-matched immunocompetent (n = 23) or athymic BALB/c mice 15) were randomly assigned MMC no (control)...

Abstract Introduction: The management of malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) remains challenging with poor patient survival. Local therapies such as hyperthermic intrathoracic cisplatin (HITOC) have shown good tumor control in selected patients. HITOC was to increase MPM drug exposure while limiting systemic side effects but alternative mechanisms for are still lacking. Here, we hypothesized that induces an immune response directed against which decreases cancer related mortality. Methods:...
