Chemopreventive agents induce programmed death-1-ligand 1 (PD-L1) surface expression in breast cancer cells and promote PD-L1-mediated T cell apoptosis.

TLDR
Examination of the effects of chemopreventive agents on the surface expression of programmed death-1-ligand 1, a negative regulator of T cell anti-tumor immunity, reveals a potential link between chemotherapy and cancer immunoresistance.

PD-L1 regulates the development, maintenance, and function of induced regulatory T cells

TL;DR: PD-L1 can inhibit T cell responses by promoting both the induction and maintenance of iT reg cells, defining a novel mechanism for iT reg cell development and function, as well as a new strategy for controlling T reg cell plasticity.

Durvalumab after chemoradiotherapy in stage III non-small cell lung cancer.

TL;DR: Immune Check Point inhibitors have demonstrated efficacy in advanced stage solid tumors including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), CTLA4, programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) and PD-1 ligand 1 ( PD-L1) inhibitors being the most studied drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

In situ formed reactive oxygen species-responsive scaffold with gemcitabine and checkpoint inhibitor for combination therapy.

TL;DR: A ROS-responsive hydrogel scaffold controls release of gemcitabine and immune checkpoint inhibitor for enhanced antitumor activity and promotes an immune-mediated tumor regression in the tumor-bearing mice, with prevention of tumor recurrence after primary resection.

PD-1 and PD-L1 upregulation promotes CD8+ T-cell apoptosis and postoperative recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma patients

TL;DR: Characterizing circulating and intratumor PD‐1/PD‐L1 expression and analyzing their association with disease progression in a cohort of hepatitis B virus‐infected patients provides evidence for a new therapeutic target in HCC patients.

Tumor-associated B7-H1 promotes T-cell apoptosis: a potential mechanism of immune evasion

TL;DR: It is reported here that, except for cells of the macrophage lineage, normal human tissues do not express B7-H1 and the findings have implications for the design of T cell–based cancer immunotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of PD-L1 on tumor cells in the escape from host immune system and tumor immunotherapy by PD-L1 blockade

TL;DR: The results suggest that the expression of PD-L1 can serve as a potent mechanism for potentially immunogenic tumors to escape from host immune responses and that blockade of interaction between PD-1 andPD-L may provide a promising strategy for specific tumor immunotherapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumour-derived soluble MIC ligands impair expression of NKG2D and T-cell activation

TL;DR: It is shown that binding of MIC induces endocytosis and degradation of NKG2D, a mode of T-cell silencing that may promote tumour immune evasion and, by inference, compromise host resistance to infections.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interferons, immunity and cancer immunoediting.

TL;DR: The roles of the IFNs are discussed, not only in cancer immunosurveillance but also in the broader process of cancer immunoediting.
