Journal ArticleDOI

Increased expression of programmed cell death protein 1 on NK cells inhibits NK-cell-mediated anti-tumor function and indicates poor prognosis in digestive cancers

TL;DR: It is shown that programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), a well-known immune checkpoint of T cells, is highly expressed on peripheral and tumor-infiltrating NK cells from patients with digestive cancers, and PD-1 blockade might be an efficient strategy in NK cell-based tumor immunotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tim-3 fosters HCC development by enhancing TGF-β-mediated alternative activation of macrophages

TL;DR: Tim-3 displays critical roles in microenvironment-induced activation and protumoral effects of TAMs in HCC and significantly inhibited the alternative activation of macrophages and suppressed HCC cell growth both in vitro and in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hepatitis B Virus Sensitizes Hepatocytes to TRAIL-Induced Apoptosis through Bax

TL;DR: It is established that HBV sensitizes hepatocytes to TRAIL-induced apoptosis through Bax and that Bax-specific small interference RNA can be used to inhibit HBV-induced hepatic cell death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roles of TIPE2 in hepatitis B virus-induced hepatic inflammation in humans and mice.

TL;DR: It is reported here that the tumor necrosis factor-alpha-induced protein-8 like-2 (TIPE2 or TNFAIP8L2), a newly identified regulator of immune receptor signaling, plays an important role in controlling HBV-induced hepatitis.
