PITHA: A Webtool to Predict Immunogenicity for Humanized and Fully Human Therapeutic Antibodies
Immunogenicity is an important concern to therapeutic antibodies during antibody design and development. Based on the co-crystal structures of... -
Oxidized mitochondrial DNA sensing by STING signaling promotes the antitumor effect of an irradiated immunogenic cancer cell vaccine
Exposure to ionizing radiation, a physical treatment that inactivates live tumor cells, has been extensively applied to enhance the antitumor...

Evading the Antitumour Immune Response
The mutations that cause (or accompany) malignancy result in tumour cells being detected as “non-self” by the immune system and may evoke an... -
STAT3 inhibitory stattic enhances immunogenic cell death induced by chemotherapy in cancer cells
BackgroundInduction of immunogenic cell death (ICD) is considered a promising strategy for cancer immunotherapy. Stattic is an inhibitor of STAT3,...
