Tissue-specific tregs in cancer metastasis: opportunities for precision immunotherapy

Laura A. Huppert et al.

Summary: Advancements in immuno-oncology have led to the development of immunotherapies for metastatic cancer patients, providing long-term treatment responses but with infrequent cures. Recent research indicates that tumors in certain organ sites may exhibit unique response patterns to immunotherapy and could reduce antitumor immunity in distant tumors, possibly due to the activation of tissue-specific immune tolerogenic mechanisms.

Combining nanomedicine and immune checkpoint therapy for cancer immunotherapy

Christine E. Boone et al.

Summary: Cancer immunotherapy, particularly immune checkpoint therapy, has shown significant clinical efficacy in some patients, but many do not respond to treatment or develop resistance and toxicity over time. Combination therapy with nanomedicine is a promising approach to overcome these limitations and enhance antitumor immunity. Nanoparticles can protect and control drug delivery, modulate the immune response, and serve as multifunctional platforms for cancer treatment in combination with immunotherapy.

Cancer Cell Phenotype Plasticity as a Driver of Immune Escape in Melanoma

Valentin Benboubker et al.

Summary: Immunotherapies targeting negative immune checkpoints have been approved for treating various cancers, but resistance remains a major issue, especially in metastatic melanoma. Non-genetic alterations in cancer cells contribute to therapy resistance and immune evasion. Understanding the phenotypic reprogramming of melanoma cells can lead to new therapeutic strategies for improving outcomes in this aggressive cancer.

ZEB1 transcription factor promotes immune escape in melanoma

Maud Plaschka et al.

Summary: This study reveals that ZEB1 expression in melanoma cells is associated with decreased CD8(+) T cell infiltration, leading to tumor immune evasion and resistance to immune checkpoint blockade. ZEB1 directly represses the secretion of T cell-attracting chemokines, such as CXCL10, and targeting ZEB1 may enhance the efficacy of immunotherapy in melanoma.

Reinvigorating exhausted CD8+cytotoxic T lymphocytes in the tumor microenvironment and current strategies in cancer immunotherapy

Md Amir Hossain et al.

Summary: Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment in recent years, but many patients still exhibit limited responses to treatment strategies. Much attention is being given to targeting exhausted CD8(+)T cells to develop new immunotherapeutic approaches. Intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms governing CD8(+)T-cell exhaustion are being explored to overcome limitations in treatment.

Coexpressed Genes That Promote the Infiltration of M2 Macrophages in Melanoma Can Evaluate the Prognosis an Immunotherapy Outcome

Kexin Yan et al.

Summary: A prognostic risk assessment model was established for M2-related coexpressed genes in melanoma, with NOTCH3, DBN1, KDELC2, and STAB1 identified as essential genes promoting M2 macrophage infiltration. These genes are involved in antigen treatment and presentation, chemokine, cytokine, T cell receptor pathway, and IFN-gamma pathway. The model showed good prognostic ability and may provide candidate biomarkers for melanoma treatment and monitoring.

IRF2 regulates cellular survival and Lenvatinib-sensitivity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) through regulating β-catenin

Yarong Guo et al.

Summary: IRF2 promotes proliferation, inhibits apoptosis, and increases lenvatinib resistance of HCC cells by regulating fl-catenin expression. The expression of fl-catenin and IRF2 is positively correlated in HCC tissues. Inhibiting fl-catenin effectively abrogates lenvatinib resistance caused by lenvatinib treatment. Targeting IRF2 may improve the therapeutic effect of lenvatinib on HCC.
