Therapeutic Targeting of Hyaluronan in the Tumor Stroma
The tumor stroma, consisting of non-malignant cells and the extracellular matrix, undergoes significant quantitative and qualitative changes throughout malignant transformation and tumor progression. With increasing recognition of the role of the tumor microenvironment in disease progression, stromal components of the tumor have become attractive targets for therapeutic intervention. Stromal ac...
متن کاملTargeting Tumor Stroma: Exploiting Apoptotic Priming
Difficulties in directly targeting tumor cells. Specific therapeutic targeting of cancer cells has been the holy grail of oncological research for decades. However, effective cancer cell directed therapy has proven difficult to achieve mainly due to the enormous multitude of genetic aberrations in many types of cancer. Given the vast number of inter-individual genetic variations and biologic be...
متن کاملTargeting 4-1BB costimulation to the tumor stroma with bispecific aptamer conjugates enhances the therapeutic index of tumor immunotherapy.
Despite the recent successes of using immune modulatory Abs in patients with cancer, autoimmune pathologies resulting from the activation of self-reactive T cells preclude the dose escalations necessary to fully exploit their therapeutic potential. To reduce the observed and expected toxicities associated with immune modulation, here we describe a clinically feasible and broadly applicable appr...
متن کاملEmerging concepts in pancreatic cancer medicine: targeting the tumor stroma
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is a stroma-rich and highly challenging cancer to treat. Over recent years, it has become increasingly evident that the complex network of soluble cytokines, growth factors, proteases, and components of the extracellular matrix collaboratively interact within the tumor microenvironment, sustaining and driving cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and early metast...
متن کاملTargeting the stroma by T cells to limit tumor growth.
Solid tumors may modulate their environment and keep stromal cells in an immunosuppressive and tumor-promoting state. Recent findings indicate that targeting not only cancer cells but also nonmalignant stromal cells by T cells is required for the eradication of established tumor. Interestingly, a single adoptive transfer of effector T cells that recognize tumor antigen-loaded stromal cells, but...
