Synthetic Oleanane Triterpenoids: Multifunctional Drugs with a Broad Range of Applications for Prevention and Treatment of Chronic Disease
Karen T. Liby,Michael B. Sporn +1 more
TL;DR: In these interactions, the addition of SOs to reactive cysteine residues in specific molecular targets triggers biological activity, Ultimately, SOs are multifunctional drugs that regulate the activity of entire networks.
Journal ArticleDOI
2011: the immune hallmarks of cancer
TL;DR: Genetic and molecular definition of these three immune hallmarks of cancer offers the opportunity to learn how to deploy specific countermeasures to reverse the situation in favor of the immune system and, eventually, the patient.
Journal ArticleDOI
The inflammatory chemokine CCL5 and cancer progression.
TL;DR: This review summarizes updated information on the role of CCL5 and its receptor CCR5 in cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, and the formation of an immunosuppressive microenvironment and highlights the development of newer therapeutic strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Macrophage plasticity and polarization in liver homeostasis and pathology
TL;DR: A better understanding of macrophage diversity and plasticity in liver homeostasis and pathology may pave the way to innovative diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tumor associated macrophages and neutrophils in tumor progression
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that also neutrophils can be driven towards distinct phenotypes in response to microenvironmental signals, and the identification of mechanisms and molecules associated with macrophage and neutrophil plasticity and polarized activation provides a basis for new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Inflammation and cancer
Lisa M. Coussens,Zena Werb +1 more
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.

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.

Macrophage polarization: tumor-associated macrophages as a paradigm for polarized M2 mononuclear phagocytes
Alberto Mantovani,Silvano Sozzani,Silvano Sozzani,Massimo Locati,Paola Allavena,Antonio Sica +5 more
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.
