Convergent inducers and effectors of T cell paralysis in the tumour microenvironment

Douglas Hanahan

Tumorigenesis embodies the formation of a heterotypic tumour microenvironment (TME) that, among its many functions, enables the evasion of T cell-mediated immune responses. Remarkably, most TME cell types, including cancer cells, fibroblasts, myeloid cells ...

Aberrant hyperexpression of the RNA binding protein FMRP in tumors mediates immune evasion

Douglas Hanahan, Nadine Fournier, Mélanie Louise Tichet, Krisztian Homicsko, Agnieszka Alicja Chryplewicz, Mohammad Sadegh Saghafinia, Yuqing Xie, Dalya Ataca, Qiqun Zeng, Jeremy Gilles Louis Guillot, Simge Yücel

Many human cancers manifest the capability to circumvent attack by the adaptive immune system. In this work, we identified a component of immune evasion that involves frequent up-regulation of fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) in solid tumors. FM ...

Disentangling the complexity of tumor-derived extracellular vesicles

Michele De Palma, Tim Beltraminelli, Caleb Ricardo Perez

The tumor microenvironment encompasses an intertwined ensemble of both transformed cancer cells and non-transformed host cells, which together establish a signaling network that regulates tumor progression. By conveying both homo- and heterotypic cell-to-c ...

Combinatorial targeting of angiogenesis with inducers of autophagy in the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme

Julie Laetitia Scotton

Malignant gliomas represent 80% of tumors developing in the central nervous system, with 50% being glioblastomas (GBM), the most aggressive form of the disease. The benefit from current therapies is very limited, the overall 5-year survival rate of patient ...

Microenvironmental regulation of tumour angiogenesis

Michele De Palma, Daniela Biziato

Tumours display considerable variation in the patterning and properties of angiogenic blood vessels, as well as in their responses to anti-angiogenic therapy. Angiogenic programming of neoplastic tissue is a multidimensional process regulated by cancer cel ...

Enhanced Rate of Acquisition of Point Mutations in Mouse Intestinal Adenomas Compared to Normal Tissue

Jörg Hülsken

The most prevalent single-nucleotide substitution (SNS) found in cancers is a C-to-T substitution in the CpG motif. It has been proposed that many of these SNSs arise during organismal aging, prior to transformation of a normal cell into a precancerous/can ...
