Journal ArticleDOI

Immune surveillance of tumors.

TL;DR: This work provides the basis for further study of natural immunity to cancer and for rational use of this information in the design of immunotherapies in combination with other conventional cancer treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adaptive immunity maintains occult cancer in an equilibrium state

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that equilibrium occurs, is mechanistically distinguishable from elimination and escape, and that neoplastic cells in equilibrium are transformed but proliferate poorly in vivo, and it is shown that tumour cells inilibrium are unedited but become edited when they spontaneously escape immune control and grow into clinically apparent tumours.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD4+CD25+ T Regulatory Cells Suppress NK Cell-Mediated Immunotherapy of Cancer

TL;DR: CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Treg) directly inhibit NKG2D-mediated NK cell cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo, effectively suppressing NK cell-mediated tumor rejection.
Journal ArticleDOI

NKG2D function protects the host from tumor initiation

TL;DR: It is shown that neutralization of NKG2D enhances the sensitivity of wild-type (WT) C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice to methylcholanthrene (MCA)-induced fibrosarcoma, and suggests an important early role for the NKG1D in controlling and shaping tumor formation.
