A Brief Introduction: from Immune Surveillance to Tumor-immune Escape

نویسنده

  • O. G. Scharovsky
چکیده

Los tumores deben evadir la respuesta inmunológica para ser clínicamente detectables en el paciente. A estos fines, las células cancerosas han desarrollado múltiples estrategias para eludir el ataque inmunológico. Estos mecanismos conspiran en estadíos avanzados de un tumor limitando la habilidad del sistema inmune para inhibir el crecimiento tumoral y la efectividad de estrategias de inmunoterapia en cáncer. Desde la biología tumoral a la clínica, en el presente artículo expondremos los más importantes mecanismos utilizados por tumores para evadir la respuesta inmunológica y su potencial impacto en el diseño de estrategias de inmunoterapia.

Cytomegalovirus and Tumors: Two Players for One Goal-Immune Escape

CYTOMEGALOVIRUS (CMV) AND THE HUMAN TUMOR CELL SHARE THE SAME OBJECTIVES: escape the recognition and destruction by the immune system and establish a state of immune tolerance conducive for their development. For early tumor development, the escape of the first lines of defense of the immune surveillance is a critical step which determines survival or destruction. The presence of CMV on the tum...

The concept of immune surveillance against tumors: The first theories

The immune system plays a major role in the surveillance against tumors. To avoid attack from the immune system, tumor cells develop different strategies to escape immune surveillance. Evidence of immune surveillance comes from both animal models and clinical observations. Mice with a wide variety of immunodeficiencies have a high rate of tumor incidence and are more susceptible to transplanted...

Hematological Malignancies Escape from NK Cell Innate Immune Surveillance: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications

Hematological malignancies treatment improved over the last years resulting in increased achievement of complete or partial remission, but unfortunately high relapse rates are still observed. Therefore, sustainment of long-term remission is crucial. Immune system has a key role in tumor surveillance. Natural killer (NK) cells, at the frontier of innate and adaptive immune system, have a central...

Tumors and the danger model.

This article reviews the evidence for the danger model in the context of immune response to tumors and the insufficiency of the immune system to eliminate tumor growth. Despite their potential immunogenicity tumors do not induce significant immune responses which could destroy malignant cells. According to the danger model, the immune surveillance system fails to detect tumor antigens because t...

SARS-COV-2 Virus; Immune Responses and The Immunopathogenesis

Abstract Background and Objectives Clinical features of SARS-COV-2 virus include fever, headache, cough, sore throat, and shortness of breath, and in severe forms it leads to disseminated intravascular coagulation, septic shock, and ultimately death. Excessive secretion of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1 leads to cytokine storms in this disease. The emergence of new va...
