    Tumor-B-cell interactions promote isotype switching to an immunosuppressive IgG4 antibody response through upregulation of IL-10 in triple negative breast cancers

    Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive breast cancer for which there is currently no targeted therapy. Tumor-infiltrating B-cells (TIB) have been observed in tumor tissues of TNBC patients, but ...

    Melanoma exosomes: messengers of metastasis

    A new study shows that melanoma-derived exosomes contribute to metastatic invasion by carrying messenger proteins that direct bone marrow–derived cells toward a prometastatic phenotype. This leads to the promo...

    In vitro migration of cytotoxic T lymphocyte derived from a colon carcinoma patient is dependent on CCL2 and CCR2

    Infiltration of colorectal carcinomas (CRC) with T-cells has been associated with good prognosis. There are some indications that chemokines could be involved in T-cell infiltration of tumors. Selective modula...

    CD8+, HLA-unrestricted, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte line against malignant melanoma

    A CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) line was derived from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient with primary melanoma. The CD8+ CTL line specifically lysed the autologous primary melanoma cells and ...

    Inhibition of tumor growth by recombinant vaccinia virus expressing GA733/CO17-1A/EpCAM/KSA/KS1-4 antigen in mice

    The human colorectal carcinoma (CRC)-associated GA733 antigen (Ag), also named CO17-1A/EpCAM/KSA/KS1-4, has been a useful target in passive immunotherapy of CRC patients with monoclonal antibody (mAb) and in a...
