Metabolic Symbiosis and immunomodulation: How Tumor Cell-Derived Lactate May Disturb innate and Adaptive immune Responses

TL;DR: Recent advances regarding the deleterious effect of high concentrations of lactate on the tumor-infiltrating immune cells are discussed, which might characterize an innovative way of understanding the tumors-immune privilege.
Journal ArticleDOI

The trans-sialidase, the major Trypanosoma cruzi virulence factor: Three decades of studies

TL;DR: The history of the discovery of T. cruzi-TS, as well as some well-documented biological effects encompassed by this parasite's virulence factor, an enzyme with potential attributes to become a drug target against Chagas disease are covered.
