Cancer immunotherapy has advanced rapidly in the clinic in recent years because of two main therapeutic drivers: immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy using antibodies blocking inhibitory receptors of the immune system across tumours [1,2,3,4], and adoptive cell therapy (ACT) using T cells eng...
Cancer-specific T cells are required for effective anti-cancer immunity and have a central role in cancer immunotherapy. However, emerging evidence suggests that only a small fraction of tumor-infiltrating T cells are cancer specific, and T cells that recognize cancer-unrelated antigens (so-called...
But cancer cells look and act differently from normal body cells. They look like the young cells of the part of the body where they start—but different enough to be recognized as cancer when seen through a microscope. When these cancer cells divide and increase in number, they don't ...

NK cells have at their disposal several weapons in their arsenal such as cytotoxic molecules, cytokines, or death ligands, to destroy cancer cells. Interaction between NK cells and innate or adaptative immune cells in the tumor microenvironment are various and complex, contributing to shape the ant...
Cancer is a disease that causes certain cells in the body to grow out of control. The human body contains billions of cells. Most of these cells reproduce themselves over and over. The body normally controls this process. In some people, however, certain cells start to multiply (繁殖) too...
SHANGHAI, Jan. 12 (Xinhua) -- A team of Chinese and Singaporean scientists have determined that a type of common immune cell could become an accomplice aiding cancer, and therefore it might be useful to target it in a potential anti-cancer therapy. ...
It covers all aspects of DC generation, function, survival and antitumor activity in the tumor environment both in vivo and in experimental in vitro systems. The goal in focusing on a spectrum of issues related to DC in cancer is to provide an extensive and expansive review rather than a col...
Cancer is a complex disease, and despite incredible progress over the last decade, it remains the leading cause of death worldwide. Liver cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and liver metastases are distinct from other cancers in that they
