Immune Cell Trafficking in the Lymphatics, Hyaluronan Biology and Tumour Metastasis
As an integral part of the immune system, the lymphatics enable immune surveillance by shepherding the migration of antigen-laden immune cells to... -
Biology, vulnerabilities and clinical applications of circulating tumour cells
In recent years, exceptional technological advances have enabled the identification and interrogation of rare circulating tumour cells (CTCs) from...

Analysis of off-tumour toxicities of T-cell-engaging bispecific antibodies via donor-matched intestinal organoids and tumouroids
Predicting the toxicity of cancer immunotherapies preclinically is challenging because models of tumours and healthy organs do not typically fully...

Liver metastasis from colorectal cancer: pathogenetic development, immune landscape of the tumour microenvironment and therapeutic approaches
Colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM) is one of the leading causes of death among patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Although immunotherapy...

Risk factors for cancer of unknown primary: a literature review
Cancer of Unknown Primary (CUP) is metastatic cancer with an unidentifiable primary tumour origin during life. It remains difficult to study the...

Prevalence of tumour-infiltrating CD103+ cells identifies therapeutic-sensitive prostate cancer with poor clinical outcome
BackgroundThe clinical significance and immune correlation of CD103 + cells in prostate cancer (PCa) remain explored.
MethodsIn total, 1080 patients...

Therapy sculpts the complex interplay between cancer and the immune system during tumour evolution
Cancer development is an evolutionary process. A key selection pressure is exerted by therapy, one of the few players in cancer evolution that can be...

Role of Tumour-Associated Macrophages in Colon Cancer Progression and Its Therapeutic Targeting
Cancer tissues are invariably infiltrated by cells of the immune system, and macrophages constitute the major portion of these. Experimental pieces... -
Immune cell infiltration and inflammatory landscape in primary brain tumours
BackgroundPrimary malignant brain tumours are more than one-third of all brain tumours and despite the molecular investigation to identify cancer...
