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.

Emerging roles of the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis in pancreatic cancer progression and therapy

TL;DR: The CXCR4 receptor, in conjunction with its primary chemokine ligand CXCL12, promotes pancreatic cancer development, invasion, and metastasis through the management of the tumor microenvironment via complex crosstalk with other pathways.

Checkpoint inhibitors in pancreatic cancer.

TL;DR: Overall, PC patients treated with checkpoint inhibitors were not shown to elicit improvement in response rates or overall survival, and combination regimens including chemotherapy have shown initial promise, but these results need to be verified.

The impact of cancer-associated fibroblasts on major hallmarks of pancreatic cancer.

TL;DR: An improved understanding of the impact of CAFs on the major hallmarks of PDAC will highlight the diagnostic and therapeutic values of these targeted cells.

Pancreatic stellate cell: Pandora's box for pancreatic disease biology.

TL;DR: It is shown that PSCs are involved in significant crosstalk between the pancreatic cancer cells and the cancer stroma, which result in tumour progression, metastasis, tumour hypoxia, immune evasion and drug resistance.

The Balancing Act between Cancer Immunity and Autoimmunity in Response to Immunotherapy

TL;DR: Key questions in this emerging field are explored, summarizing preclinical and clinical experiences with this new generation of cancer drugs, the growing understanding of the role of the immune response in mediating these toxicities, the relationship of CPI-induced autoimmunity to conventional autoimmune diseases, and insights into the mechanism of irAE development and treatment.

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.
