Immunology in the clinic review series; focus on cancer: tumour-associated macrophages: undisputed stars of the inflammatory tumour microenvironment.

TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-anatomy of the central nervous system and some of the mechanisms leading to anxiety, depression, and substance abuse that are known to occur after certain types of injuries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer-associated fibroblasts and M2-polarized macrophages synergize during prostate carcinoma progression.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that stromal tumor-associated cells cooperate to favor malignancy of prostate carcinoma (PCa), and the analysis of patients affected by prostate cancers at different clinical stages revealed a clear increase in the M2/M1 ratio in correlation with clinical values.
Journal ArticleDOI

IKK/NF-κB and STAT3 pathways: central signalling hubs in inflammation-mediated tumour promotion and metastasis

TL;DR: Genetic evidence is analysed indicating that the transcription factors nuclear factor‐κB and STAT3 have a central role in this context by regulating distinct functions in cancer cells and surrounding non‐tumorigenic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathobionts of the gastrointestinal microbiota and inflammatory disease

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore burgeoning hypotheses that the combination of an immunocompromised state with colonization by pathobionts together comprise a risk factor for certain inflammatory disorders and gastrointestinal (GI) cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

VISTA Regulates the Development of Protective Antitumor Immunity.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates the multiple mechanisms whereby VISTA relieves negative regulation by hematopoietic cells and enhances protective antitumor immunity and establishes a foundation for designing VISTA- targeted approaches either as a monotherapy or in combination with additional immune-targeted strategies for cancer immunotherapy.

Inflammation and cancer

TL;DR: It is now becoming clear that the tumour microenvironment, which is largely orchestrated by inflammatory cells, is an indispensable participant in the neoplastic process, fostering proliferation, survival and migration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammation and cancer: back to Virchow?

TL;DR: A rationale for the use of cytokine and chemokine blockade, and further investigation of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, in the chemoprevention and treatment of malignant diseases is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of chemokine receptors in breast cancer metastasis.

TL;DR: It is reported that the chemokine receptors CXCR4 and CCR7 are highly expressed in human breast cancer cells, malignant breast tumours and metastases and their respective ligands CXCL12/SDF-1α and CCL21/6Ckine exhibit peak levels of expression in organs representing the first destinations of breast cancer metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Macrophage polarization: tumor-associated macrophages as a paradigm for polarized M2 mononuclear phagocytes

TL;DR: These functionally polarized cells, and similarly oriented or immature dendritic cells present in tumors, have a key role in subversion of adaptive immunity and in inflammatory circuits that promote tumor growth and progression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclear factor-kappaB in cancer development and progression.

TL;DR: This article showed that NF-kappaB provides a mechanistic link between inflammation and cancer, and is a major factor controlling the ability of both pre-neoplastic and malignant cells to resist apoptosis-based tumour-surveillance mechanisms.
