Abstract A challenge in oncology is to rationally and effectively integrate immunotherapy with traditional modalities, including radiotherapy. Here, we demonstrate that radiotherapy induces tumor-cell ferroptosis. Ferroptosis agonists augment ferroptosis antagonists limit efficacy tumor models. Immunotherapy sensitizes tumors by promoting Mechanistically, IFNγ derived from immunotherapy-activated CD8+ T cells radiotherapy-activated ATM independently, yet synergistically, suppresses SLC7A11,...
Programmed death-1 ligand (PD-L1, B7-H1) and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) pathway blockade is a promising therapy for treating cancer. However, the mechanistic contribution of host tumor PD-L1 PD-1 signaling to therapeutic efficacy remains elusive. Here, we evaluated 3 tumor-bearing mouse models that differ in their sensitivity demonstrated loss immunodeficient mice PD-L1– PD-1–deficient mice. In contrast, neither knockout nor overexpression cells had an effect on efficacy. Human...
Abstract Combinatorial strategies are needed to overcome the resistance of pancreatic cancer immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). DNA damage activates innate response and improves ICB efficacy. Because ATM is an apical kinase in radiation-induced response, we investigated effects inhibition radiation on tumor immunogenicity. was inhibited through pharmacologic genetic human murine models both vitro vivo. Tumor immunogenicity evaluated after alone combination with by assessing TBK1 Type I...
Whether mutations in cancer driver genes directly affect immune phenotype and T cell immunity remains a standing question. ARID1A is core member of the polymorphic BRG/BRM-associated factor chromatin remodeling complex. occur human cancers drive development. Here, we studied molecular, cellular, clinical impact aberrations on immunity. We demonstrated that resulted limited accessibility to IFN-responsive genes, impaired IFN gene expression, anemic tumor infiltration, poor immunity, shortened...
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are a major cellular component in the tumor microenvironment (TME). However, relationship between phenotype and metabolic pattern of TAMs remains poorly understood. We performed single-cell transcriptome profiling on hepatic from mice bearing liver metastatic tumors. find that manifest high heterogeneity at levels transcription, development, metabolism, function. Integrative analyses validation experiments indicate increased purine metabolism is feature...

Background. BK virus (BKV)-associated nephropathy (BKVAN) has been increasingly recognized as an important cause of renal transplant dysfunction. We report the role quantitative viral load monitoring in management BKVAN. Methods. developed a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for BKV detection urine and plasma. Four allograft recipients, including two children, with BKVAN were treated low-dose cidofovir followed prospectively. Results. The PCR showed limit 10 copies intra-assay...
Background Since 1998 the serious public health problem in South East Asia of counterfeit artesunate, containing no or subtherapeutic amounts active antimalarial ingredient, has led to deaths from untreated malaria, reduced confidence this vital drug, large economic losses for legitimate manufacturers, and concerns that artemisinin resistance might be engendered. Methods Findings With evidence a deteriorating situation, group police, criminal analysts, chemists, palynologists, workers...
