Systematic Analysis of Immune Infiltrates in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer Reveals CD20, FoxP3 and TIA-1 as Positive Prognostic Factors

TLDR
Host immune responses to EOC vary widely according to histological subtype and the extent of residual disease, and TIA-1, FoxP3 and CD20 emerge as new positive prognostic factors in high-grade serous EOC from optimally debulked patients.
Abstract
Background Tumor-infiltrating T cells are associated with survival in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), but their functional status is poorly understood, especially relative to the different risk categories and histological subtypes of EOC.

The immune contexture in human tumours: impact on clinical outcome

TL;DR: In this Opinion article, the context-specific nature of infiltrating immune cells can affect the prognosis of patients is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive analyses of tumor immunity: implications for cancer immunotherapy

TL;DR: A computational approach to study tumor-infiltrating immune cells and their interactions with cancer cells is developed and may inform effective cancer vaccine and checkpoint blockade therapies.

The tumor microenvironment at a glance

TL;DR: Cancers are not just masses of malignant cells but complex ‘rogue’ organs, to which many other cells are recruited and can be corrupted by the transformed cells.

Chemokines in the cancer microenvironment and their relevance in cancer immunotherapy

TL;DR: This Review focuses on the main chemokines that are found in the human tumour microenvironment, and elaborate on their patterns of expression, their regulation and their roles in immune cell recruitment and in cancer and stromal cell biology.
Journal ArticleDOI

The prognostic influence of tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes in cancer: a systematic review with meta-analysis

TL;DR: Any future studies should be carefully designed, to prevent overestimating the effect of TILs on prognosis, and ratios between TIL subsets may be more informative.

Reciprocal developmental pathways for the generation of pathogenic effector TH17 and regulatory T cells.

TL;DR: It is shown that IL-6, an acute phase protein induced during inflammation, completely inhibits the generation of Foxp3+ Treg cells induced by TGF-β, and the data demonstrate a dichotomy in thegeneration of pathogenic (TH17) T cells that induce autoimmunity and regulatory (Foxp3+) T Cells that inhibit autoimmune tissue injury.

TGFβ in the context of an inflammatory cytokine milieu supports de novo differentiation of IL-17-Producing T cells

TL;DR: The data indicate that, in the presence of IL-6, TGFbeta1 subverts Th1 and Th2 differentiation for the generation ofIL-17-producing T cells.

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.
