Comparison of the prognostic values of various inflammation based factors in patients with pancreatic cancer

TL;DR: Elevated NLR is superior to the mGPS, PI, PLR and PNI for prognostication in patients with pancreatic cancer, and is associated with higher white cell count, higher PLR, elevated CRP, hypoalbuminemia, increased mG PS, PI and P NI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Harnessing tumor-associated macrophages as aids for cancer immunotherapy

TL;DR: The mechanisms by which macrophages become immunosuppressive and compromise antitumor immunity are reviewed, and initial TAMs-targeting strategies have shown efficacy across therapeutic modalities and tumor types in both preclinical and clinical studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammation-mediated promotion of invasion and metastasis

TL;DR: Evidence indicating that inflammatory mediators affect genetic stability and cause persistent epigenetic alterations suggests that inflammatory components of the tumor microenvironment impacts on fundamental mechanisms responsible for the generation of metastatic variants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Engagement of myelomonocytic Siglecs by tumor-associated ligands modulates the innate immune response to cancer

TL;DR: A previously unidentified impact of inhibitory myelomonocytic Siglecs in cancer biology is defined, with distinct roles that reflect the dual function of myelmonocytic cells in cancer progression.

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.
