Journal ArticleDOI
The transcriptome of lung tumor-infiltrating dendritic cells reveals a tumor-supporting phenotype and a microRNA signature with negative impact on clinical outcome

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used an orthotopic preclinical model of lung cancer to dissect how the lung tumor micro-environment affects tissue-resident Dendritic cells (DCs) and extract novel biologically and clinically relevant information.
Journal ArticleDOI
An accelerated, clinical-grade protocol to generate high yields of type 1-polarizing messenger RNA-loaded dendritic cells for cancer vaccination.

TL;DR: Using a GMP-compliant culture protocol, the feasibility of generating high yields of mature DCs in a short time is demonstrated, with a superior immunogenic profile compared with 8-day TNF-α/PGE2-matured DCs, and capable of inducing vigorous cytotoxic T-cell responses to antigen from electroporated mRNA.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Abstract A091: Specific myelomonocytic cells heavily infiltrate orthotopic lung tumors and display a hypoxia-driven miRNA expression signature that directs tumor-supporting functions and negatively impacts on clinical outcome
Elisabeth Brabants,Lotte Pyfferoen,Celine Everaert,Simon Tavernier,Kelly Heyns,Nancy De Cabooter,Glenn Wagemans,Kim Deswarte,Hamida Hammad,Olivier De Wever,Jo Vandesompele,Bart N. Lambrecht,Pieter Mestdagh,Karim Vermaelen +13 more
TL;DR: It is found that lung tumors predominantly recruit inflammatory-type DCs that are reprogrammed at the level of immuno-phenotype and micro-RNA repertoire, and the TIDC-derived miRNA signature imparts a strong negative impact on overall survival in non-squamous lung cancer.
