Endoplasmic reticulum stress promotes the release of exosomal PD-L1 from head and neck cancer cells and facilitates M2 macrophage polarization

Yi Yuan et al.

Summary: ER stress upregulates PD-L1 expression and promotes M2 polarization in macrophages in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). A new exosome-modulated mechanism for OSCC-macrophage crosstalk driving tumor development was delineated.

Extracellular vesicles and particles impact the systemic landscape of cancer

Serena Lucotti et al.

Summary: Intercellular cross talk between cancer cells and stromal and immune cells is crucial for tumor progression and metastasis. Extracellular vesicles and particles (EVPs) play a significant role as messengers carrying bioactive molecules between cells in cancer. EVPs influence tumor cell growth, immune cell function, and stromal cell activation, affecting local tumor progression and metastasis.

Novel phosphatidylserine-binding molecule enhances antitumor T-cell responses by targeting immunosuppressive exosomes in human tumor microenvironments

Maulasri Bhatta et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that ExoBlock has high avidity for binding to PS, significantly blocking the immunosuppressive activity of human ovarian tumor and melanoma-associated exosomes in vitro. Additionally, ExoBlock enhanced T cell-mediated tumor suppression in both the X-mouse and OTX models, leading to reduction in tumor burden, metastasis, and circulating PS+ exosomes in tumor-bearing mice. These results suggest that targeting exosomal PS in TMEs using ExoBlock is a promising strategy to enhance antitumor T-cell responses.

Novel TGF beta Inhibitors Ameliorate Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression and Improve the Antitumor Immune Response of Anti-PD-L1 Immunotherapy

Nils Ludwig et al.

Summary: This study found that two novel TGF beta inhibitors can reduce tumor burden and decrease body weight loss in a murine oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) model, and enhance CD8(+) T-cell infiltration into tumors. Combination therapy with PD-L1 antibodies further reduces weight loss and accelerates lymphocyte infiltration into tumor tissues.

Functional HPV-specific PD-1+ stem-like CD8 T cells in head and neck cancer

Christiane S. Eberhardt et al.

Summary: The study identified different transcriptional subsets of HPV-specific CD8 T cells in HPV-positive head and neck cancer, highlighting the potential response to PD-1 blockade. Furthermore, the inclusion of E2 and E5 proteins in HPV therapeutic vaccines should be considered to elicit a broader tumor-reactive CD8 T cell response.

Neoadjuvant nivolumab for patients with resectable HPV-positive and HPV-negative squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck in the CheckMate 358 trial

Robert L. Ferris et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant anti-PD-1 therapy in high-risk resectable HPV-positive and HPV-negative HNSCC, showing that neoadjuvant nivolumab therapy was generally safe and induced pathologic regressions in HPV-positive (23.5%) and HPV-negative (5.9%) tumors.

Single-Cell Cloning of Breast Cancer Cells Secreting Specific Subsets of Extracellular Vesicles

Mohsen Fathi et al.

Summary: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a crucial role in intercellular communication and stable transport of biological information. Traditional methods for profiling EVs are limited, but a high-throughput single-cell technique revealed that cancer cells can inherit the secretion of specific EV subsets. This single-cell approach provides new insights into cell and disease biology by integrating EV secretion with multiple cellular functions.

Small Extracellular Vesicles from Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cells Carry a Proteomic Signature for Tumor Hypoxia

Alicja Gluszko et al.

Summary: Tissue hypoxia is a common feature in HNSCC, leading to alterations in tumor cells. The study found that sEVs released by HNSCC cells under hypoxic conditions have a unique protein composition, which can potentially serve as biomarkers for different degrees of tissue hypoxia and as a resource for anti-angiogenic therapies.

Angiogenesis Inhibitors for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Treatment: Is There Still Hope?

Aini Hyytiainen et al.

Summary: Most studies did not demonstrate the benefits of angiogenesis inhibitors in the treatment of HNSCC, and these inhibitors were associated with significant toxicity. However, some results showed promising effects, indicating a need for further investigation of angiogenesis inhibitors, particularly in combination therapies.

OSCC cell-secreted exosomal CMTM6 induced M2-like macrophages polarization via ERK1/2 signaling pathway

Xin Pang et al.

Summary: In OSCC samples, higher expression of CMTM6 is associated with higher pathological stage, CD163+ macrophage infiltration, and PD-L1 expression. Knockdown of CMTM6 inhibits proliferative, migrative, and invasive abilities of OSCC cells, and suppresses M2 macrophage polarization in vitro by downregulating PD-L1 expression. Exosomal CMTM6 from OSCC cells promotes M2-like macrophage polarization via ERK1/2 signaling, indicating a novel crosstalk between cancer cells and immune cells in OSCC microenvironment.
