CD47 blockade triggers T cell–mediated destruction of immunogenic tumors

TL;DR: It is revealed that the therapeutic effects of CD47 blockade depend on dendritic cell but not macrophage cross-priming of T cell responses, suggesting that T cell–mediated elimination of immunogenic tumors is driven by anti-CD47 treatment, further bridging the innate and adaptive responses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dendritic Cells but Not Macrophages Sense Tumor Mitochondrial DNA for Cross-priming through Signal Regulatory Protein α Signaling

TL;DR: DCs are specialized in sensing mtDNA after CD47 blockade through inhibiting uptaken DNA degradation in their phagosomes while macrophages rapidly degrade DNA, and it is suggested that the CD47‐SIRP&agr; axis is critical for DC‐driven antitumor immunity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Androgen receptor antagonists compromise T cell response against prostate cancer leading to early tumor relapse

TL;DR: The authors characterized the mechanism of the immunosuppression and found that medical ADT interfered with initial T cell priming rather than reactivation and expansion, suggesting that careful regulation of timing and dose could improve the efficacy of this combination therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Adaptive Immunity in the Efficacy of Targeted Cancer Therapies

TL;DR: It is argued that significant progress for combined therapies will require a better understanding of the complex interactions between immune cells, the tumor, and the tumor microenvironment (TME) in different cancer settings.
