Chemotherapeutic targeting of myeloid-derived suppressor cells
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), which expand in cancer-bearing hosts, contribute to the escape of malignant cells from immune destruction and impair the efficacy of immunotherapeutic interventions. We have recently demonstrated that the conventional chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin selectively eliminates MDSCs, hence promoting the activity of immune effector cells and improving the ...
متن کاملChemotherapeutic targeting of cancer-induced immunosuppressive cells.
The expansion of immunosuppressive cells represents a cardinal strategy deployed by tumors to escape from detection and elimination by the immune system. Regulatory T lymphocytes (Treg) and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC), major components of these inhibitory cellular networks, have drawn intense scrutiny in recent years. In patients with cancer and in animal tumor models, these suppres...
متن کاملChemotherapeutic approaches for targeting cell death pathways.
For several decades, apoptosis has taken center stage as the principal mechanism of programmed cell death in mammalian tissues. It also has been increasingly noted that conventional chemotherapeutic agents not only elicit apoptosis but other forms of nonapoptotic death such as necrosis, autophagy, mitotic catastrophe, and senescence. This review presents background on the signaling pathways inv...
متن کاملActivation of p53 by Chemotherapeutic Agents Enhances Reovirus Oncolysis
Mammalian reovirus is a benign virus that possesses the natural ability to preferentially infect and kill cancer cells (reovirus oncolysis). Reovirus exploits aberrant Ras signalling in many human cancers to promote its own replication and spread. In vitro and in vivo studies using reovirus either singly or in combination with anti-cancer drugs have shown very encouraging results. Presently, a ...
متن کاملInactivation of p53 enhances sensitivity to multiple chemotherapeutic agents.
Many tumor types have p53 and/or RB mutations, and it is unclear what role the mutations of these tumor suppressor genes have on the efficacy of chemotherapeutic agents. The effect of p53 and RB inactivation on sensitivity to chemotherapeutic drugs was examined using a model system in which p53 or RB was inactivated in normal human foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs) by acute expression of human papill...
