Chronic lymphocytic leukemia T cells show impaired immunological synapse formation that can be reversed with an immunomodulating drug

TL;DR: Impaired actin polymerization results in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia exhibiting defective immunological synapse formation with APCs is demonstrated and repair of immune synapse defects is identified as an essential step in improving cancer immunotherapy approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor-promoting immune-suppressive myeloid-derived suppressor cells in the multiple myeloma microenvironment in humans

TL;DR: Assessment of the presence, frequency, and functional characteristics of MDSCs in patients with newly diagnosed, relapsed, and relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma and the immunomodulatory effects of lenalidomide and bortezomib suggest that inhibition of the tumor-promoting and immune-suppressive functions of M DSCs in MM may represent a promising novel immune-based therapeutic strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells induce changes in gene expression of CD4 and CD8 T cells

TL;DR: Identification of the specific pathways perturbed in the T cells of cancer-bearing patients will allow us to assess steps to repair these defects, which will likely be required to enhance antitumor immunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Targeting the bone marrow microenvironment in multiple myeloma

TL;DR: The interaction between the malignant plasma cell and the BM microenvironment and the strategy to target them is discussed.
