Characterizing tumor-promoting T cells in chemically induced cutaneous carcinogenesis.
There is a longstanding but poorly understood epidemiologic link between inflammation and cancer. Consistent with this, we previously showed that alphabeta T cell deficiency can increase resistance to chemical carcinogenesis initiated by 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene and promoted by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. This provoked the hypothesis that alphabeta T cell deficiency removed T regulat...
متن کاملTumor sialylation impedes T cell mediated anti-tumor responses while promoting tumor associated-regulatory T cells
The increased presence of sialylated glycans on the tumor surface has been linked to poor prognosis, yet the effects on tumor-specific T cell immunity are hardly studied. We here show that hypersialylation of B16 melanoma substantially influences tumor growth by preventing the formation of effector T cells and facilitating the presence of high regulatory T cell (Treg) frequencies. Knock-down of...
متن کاملInhibition of Soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Prevents Chemically Induced Carcinogenesis in Mice.
TNF is a potent promoter of carcinogenesis and potentially important target for cancer prevention. TNF is produced as functionally distinct transmembrane and soluble molecules (tmTNF and sTNF, respectively), but their individual roles in carcinogenesis are unexplored. We investigated the participation of tmTNF and sTNF in chemically induced carcinogenesis in mice. We found that injection of XPr...
متن کاملTumor-promoting role of TGFβ1 signaling in ultraviolet B-induced skin carcinogenesis is associated with cutaneous inflammation and lymph node migration of dermal dendritic cells.
Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1) is a pleiotropic cytokine in the skin that can function both as a tumor promoter and suppressor in chemically induced skin carcinogenesis, but the function in ultraviolet B (UVB) carcinogenesis is not well understood. Treatment of SKH1 hairless mice with the activin-like kinase 5 (ALK5) inhibitor SB431542 to block UVB-induced activation of cutaneous TGF...
متن کاملChemopreventive Intervention in Chemically-induced Carcinogenesis in Sub-saharan Africa
There is ample evidence that dietary factors can contribute to human cancer risk and as such many of the cancer common the sub-Saharan Africa including liver, colon, prostate and breast cancer have been related to dietary behaviors. In particular, hepatocellular carcinoma which is the fifth leading cause of cancer mortality in the world constitute a major health problem especially in the develo...
