Activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in dendritic cells induces IL-1β–dependent adaptive immunity against tumors

TL;DR: It is shown that dying tumor cells release ATP, which then acts on P2X7 purinergic receptors from DCs and triggers the NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing-3 protein (NLRP3)-dependent caspase-1 activation complex ('inflammasome'), allowing for the secretion of interleukin-1 β (IL-1β).
Journal ArticleDOI

The intestinal microbiota modulates the anticancer immune effects of cyclophosphamide

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that cyclophosphamide alters the composition of microbiota in the small intestine and induces the translocation of selected species of Gram-positive bacteria into secondary lymphoid organs, which suggests that the gut microbiota help shape the anticancer immune response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immunological aspects of cancer chemotherapy.

TL;DR: It is proposed that future successes in the fight against cancer will rely on the development and clinical application of combined chemo- and immunotherapies.
