Prognostic value of diametrically polarized tumor-associated macrophages in renal cell carcinoma.

TL;DR: Intratumoral balance of diametrically polarized TAMs is a novel independent predictor for survival in patients with clear-cell renal cell carcinoma and might be a promising target of postoperative adjuvant therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor-associated Macrophage-derived Interleukin-23 Interlinks Kidney Cancer Glutamine Addiction with Immune Evasion.

TL;DR: It is found that ccRCC tumor cell-intrinsic glutamine metabolism orchestrates immune evasion via interleukin (IL)-23, and IL-23-high patients had significantly poorer survival than IL- 23-low patients, andIL-23 should be considered a therapeutic target in ccR CC, either alone or in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Klotho suppresses tumor progression via inhibiting PI3K/Akt/GSK3β/Snail signaling in renal cell carcinoma

TL;DR: Results indicate Klotho acts as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting PI3K/Akt/GSK3β/Snail signaling, thus suppressing epithelial‐mesenchymal transition and tumor migration and invasion during RCC progression, and might be used as a potential therapy for advanced RCC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor-infiltrating CD39 + CD8 + T cells determine poor prognosis and immune evasion in clear cell renal cell carcinoma patients

TL;DR: Analysis of tumor-infiltrating immune cell landscape in the ccRCC revealed the positive correlation between CD39+CD8+ T cells and Tregs and M2-polarized macrophages, and inhibition of CD39 partially restores the anti-tumor function of CD8+, indicating therapeutic benefit of TKIs therapy.
