Activated Pancreatic Stellate Cells Sequester CD8+ T Cells to Reduce Their Infiltration of the Juxtatumoral Compartment of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

TLDR
Based on studies of human PDAC samples and KPC mice, activated PSCs appear to reduce migration of CD8(+) T cells to juxtatumoral stromal compartments, preventing their access to cancer cells.

Alteration of pancreatic cancer cell functions by tumor-stromal cell interaction

TL;DR: Conventional therapies targeting cancer cells alone have failed to conquer pancreatic cancer, but targeting the stromal cells and immune cells in animal experiments has provided evidence of improved therapeutic responses, and a combination of novel strategies altering stronal cell functions could contribute to improving the pancreaticcancer prognosis.

The prognostic impact of programmed cell death ligand 1 and human leukocyte antigen class I in pancreatic cancer

TL;DR: Evaluation of both PD‐L1 and HLA class I expression by PDA may be a good predictor of prognosis for patients and should be evaluated when selecting PDA patients who may be eligible for treatment with PD‐1/PD‐L 1 immune checkpoint blockade therapies.

Intratumoral T cells, recurrence, and survival in epithelial ovarian cancer.

TL;DR: The presence of intratumoral T cells correlates with improved clinical outcome in advanced ovarian carcinoma and was associated with increased expression of interferon-gamma, interleukin-2, and lymphocyte-attracting chemokines within the tumor.
