PD1 signal transduction pathways in T cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors for the treatment of cancer is revolutionizing oncology. Amongst these therapeutic agents, antibodies that block PD-L1/PD1 interactions between cancer cells and T cells are demonstrating high efficacies and low toxicities. Despite all the recent advances, very little is yet known on the molecular intracellular signaling pathways regulated by either PD-L1 or PD1. Here we review the current knowledge on PD1-dependent intracellular signaling pathways, and the consequences of disrupting PD1 signal transduction.

Recent Advances in T Cell Signaling in Aging
The immune system of mammalian organisms undergoes alterations that may account for an increased susceptibility to certain infections, autoimmune diseases, or malignancies. Well characterized are age related defect in T cell functions and cell mediated immunity. Although it is well established that the functional properties of T cells decrease with age, its biochemical and molecular nature is...
متن کاملThe Canonical Wnt Signaling (Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway): A Potential Target for Cancer Prevention and Therapy
Precise regulation of signal transduction pathways is crucial for normal animal development and for maintaining cellular and tissue homeostasis in adults. The Wnt/Frizzled-mediated signaling includes canonical and non-canonical signal transduction pathways. Upregulation or downregulation of the canonical Wnt-signaling (or the Wnt/β-Catenin signal transduction) leads to a variety of human diseas...
متن کاملThe Expression of Signal Regulatory Protein-alpha in Normal and Osteoarthritic Human Articular Cartilage and Its Involvement in Chondrocyte Mechano-transduction Response
Signal regulatory proteins (SIRP) belong to immunoglobulin super family (IgSF) and relate to integrin signaling cascades. It has been shown that SIRPa is expressed in a variety of cells including myeloid cells and neurons. In the present study the expression of this IgSF member in articular chondrocytes was investigated. Methods: Using a panel of anti-SIRPalpha antibodies, immunohistochemistry...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori activates the cyclin D1 gene through mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway in gastric cancer cells.
Helicobacter pylori induces cellular proliferation in host cells, but the mechanism remains unclear. Thus, we examined the effect of H. pylori on cyclin D1, an important regulator of the cell cycle, especially in relation to intracellular signaling pathways. In a Northern blot analysis, cyclin D1 transcription in gastric cancer (AGS) cells was enhanced by coculture with H. pylori strain TN2 in ...

Background and Aim: Antioxidants are compounds that protect cells from attacks of free radicals. Lack of balance between antioxidants and free radicals results in oxidative stress, which ultimately results in cell damage. The effects of flavonoids are not related solely to their antioxidant properties, but also to their effects on cellular signal pathways. The present study was conducted to eva...
