BRAF-targeted therapy and immune responses to melanoma
Type I BRAF inhibitors and immunotherapy constitute two new exciting approaches for the treatment of advanced malignant melanoma. We have recently elucidated a role for host C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2) in the antineoplastic effects of type I BRAF inhibitors in mice, supporting the therapeutic potential of combining BRAF inhibitors with immunotherapy.
متن کاملEpigenetic remodeling combined with photodynamic therapy elicits anticancer immune responses
Photodynamic therapy has been shown to induce strong immunity against tumor cells expressing exogenous tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), including P1A antigen. Cancer cells can evade the immune system by epigenetic silencing of TAAs, while DNA methyltransferase inhibitors, such as 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine (5-aza-dC) can restore the expression of silenced or downregulated TAA. Thus, epigenetic rem...
متن کاملPhotodynamic therapy: a targeted therapy in periodontics.
The oral cavity is colonized by a large number and highly diversified communities of micro-organisms. Bacterial biofilm present on tooth or root surface is a major cause of gingivitis and periodontitis. Chemical antimicrobial agents are widely used in prophylactic and therapeutic regimens for dental plaque related diseases, which are among the most common human infections. As these agents are d...
متن کاملTargeted Radionuclide Therapy with A 177Lu-labeled Anti-HER2 Nanobody
RIT has become an attractive strategy in cancer treatment, but still faces important drawbacks due to poor tumor penetration and undesirable pharmacokinetics of the targeting vehicles. Smaller radiolabeled antibody fragments and peptides feature highly specific target accumulation, resulting in low accumulation in healthy tissue, except for the kidneys. Nanobodies are the smallest (MW<15 kDa) f...
