PSMA antibody, humanized PSMA.CAR10.3, or Cetuximab increases prostate cancer localization of NF-κB p50-deficient immature myeloid cells (p50-IMC) and phagocytosis by their macroph... by Mohammad A. Alzubi, Theresa Barberi, Alan D. Friedman

“…Abstract Adoptive transfer of immature myeloid cells lacking the repressive NF-κB p50 subunit (p50-IMC) slows the growth of syngeneic murine prostate cancer and other tumors. Directing p50-IMC to tumors using Fc receptor-bound antibodies (Abs) or surface chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) may increase tumor localization and subsequent phagocytosis of cancer cells by their mature myeloid progeny, potentiating anti-tumor T cell activation. …”

Identification of Epinastine as CD96/PVR inhibitor for cancer immunotherapy by Xiangrui Zhang, Lihan Zhang, Beibei Li, Qingchao Wang, Peixin Chen, Ranran Shi, Xiuman Zhou, Xiaoshuang Niu, Wenjie Zhai, Yahong Wu, Wenhui Shen, Xiaowen Zhou, Wenshan Zhao

“…Abstract Background Poliovirus receptor (PVR) and its receptor system, including TIGIT, CD226, and CD96, play a pivotal role in orchestrating tumor immune evasion. Upon engagement with PVR on tumor cells, CD96 exerts inhibitory effects on the function of T cells and NK cells, thereby fostering tumor immune evasion. …”

TCR Gene Transfer: MAGE-C2/HLA-A2 and MAGE-A3/HLA-DP4 Epitopes as Melanoma-Specific Immune Targets by Trudy Straetemans, Mandy van Brakel, Sabine van Steenbergen, Marieke Broertjes, Joost Drexhage, Joost Hegmans, Bart N. Lambrecht, Cor Lamers, Pierre van Der Bruggen, Pierre G. Coulie, Reno Debets

“…Further development of TCR gene therapy requires the implementation of T-cell target epitopes that prevent “on-target” reactivity towards healthy tissues and at the same time direct a clinically effective response towards tumor tissues. Candidate epitopes that meet these criteria are MAGE-C2336-344/HLA-A2 (MC2/A2) and MAGE-A3243-258/HLA-DP4 (MA3/DP4). …”

Ginger-Derived Exosome-Like Nanoparticles Loaded With Indocyanine Green Enhances Phototherapy Efficacy for Breast Cancer by Guo Z, Li G, Shen L, Pan J, Dou D, Gong Y, Shi W, Sun Y, Zhang Y, Ma K, Cui C, Li W, Liu Q, Zhu X

“…Furthermore, in vivo studies demonstrated that engineered GDNPs@ICG significantly inhibited breast tumor growth and presented limited toxicity. Moreover, by detecting the expression of CD31, N-cadherin, IL-6, IFN-γ, CD8, p16, p21, and p53 in tumor tissues, we found that GDNPs@ICG substantially reduced angiogenesis, inhibited metastasis, activated the anti-tumor immune response, and promoted cell senescence in breast tumor.Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that the novel bio-nanoplatform GDNPs@ICG enhanced the photo-mediated therapeutic effect in breast tumor. …”
