Journal ArticleDOI

HIF-1α regulates function and differentiation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in the tumor microenvironment

TL;DR: The hypoxic environment of tumors dictates the phenotype of local myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) via HIF-1a expression; hypoxia converts splenic MDSCs from specific into nonspecific suppressors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The cannabinoid system and immune modulation

TL;DR: It appears the immunocannabinoid system is involved in regulating the brain‐immune axis and might be exploited in future therapies for chronic diseases and immune deficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-inflammatory Triterpenoid Blocks Immune Suppressive Function of MDSCs and Improves Immune Response in Cancer

TL;DR: CDDO-Me abrogated the immune suppressive effect of MDSCs and improved immune responses in tumor-bearing mice and cancer patients and may represent an attractive therapeutic option by enhancing the effect of cancer immunotherapy.
