Biological characteristics of γδT cells and application in tumor immunotherapy.

Human γδT cells are a special immune cell type which exist in small quantities in the body, do not require processing and presentation for antigen recognition, and have non-major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-restricted immune response. They play an important role in the body's anti-tumor, anti-infection, immune regulation, immune surveillance and maintenance of immune tolerance. This article reviews the generation and development of human γδT cells, genetic characteristics, classification, recognition and role of antigens, and research progress in tumor immunotherapy.

Mechanisms of Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy.

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is one of the most frequent side effects caused by antineoplastic agents, with a prevalence from 19% to over 85%. Clinically, CIPN is a mostly sensory neuropathy that may be accompanied by motor and autonomic changes of varying intensity and duration. Due to its high prevalence among cancer patients, CIPN constitutes a major problem for both cancer patients and survivors as well as for their health care providers, especially because, at the moment, there is no single effective method of preventing CIPN; moreover, the possibilities of treating t

Сверхклеточная везикла в качестве главных регуляторов иммунной модуляции в Мультимиломе.

Множественная миелома (ММ) — генетически и клинически разнородная плазменная порча клеток, характеризующаяся клональным расширением различных клеток В внутри костного мозга (БМ). Пациенты начинают с моноклональной гаммопатии неизвестного значения (MMUS) и переходят на промежуточную стадию под названием Smouldering multieloma (SMM), характеризующуюся несколькими генетическими изменениями, представляющими геномную основу злокачественного клона. Проходы на контрольно-пропускных пунктах иммунной системы играют ключевую роль в формировании иммуноподавляющей ниши BM, что способствует дисфункции Т-кл

Targeting fibrosis, mechanisms and cilinical trials.

Fibrosis is characterized by the excessive extracellular matrix deposition due to dysregulated wound and connective tissue repair response. Multiple organs can develop fibrosis, including the liver, kidney, heart, and lung. Fibrosis such as liver cirrhosis, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and cystic fibrosis caused substantial disease burden. Persistent abnormal activation of myofibroblasts mediated by various signals, such as transforming growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, and fibroblast growh factor, has been recongized as a major event in the occurrence and progression of fibrosi

Animal Models in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Is There a Correlation Between Autoantibodies in Human Pathology and Animal Models?

RA is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by synovial inflammation and joint damage, driven by autoantibodies such as ACPA, anti-CarP and RF. These autoantibodies, influenced by genetic and environmental factors, play a crucial role in RA pathogenesis through post-translational modifications like citrullination, carbamylation, and acetylation. The early detection of ACPA provides a potential window for intervention, while anti-CarP antibodies correlate with severe disease progression and RF aids in diagnosis. Translating these findings from human pathology to animal models presents sign

Dysregulation of sphingolipid metabolism contributes to bortezomib-induced neuropathic pain.

The development of chemotherapy-induced painful peripheral neuropathy is a major dose-limiting side effect of many chemotherapeutics, including bortezomib, but the mechanisms remain poorly understood. We now report that bortezomib causes the dysregulation of de novo sphingolipid metabolism in the spinal cord dorsal horn to increase the levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor 1 (S1PR1) ligands, S1P and dihydro-S1P. Accordingly, genetic and pharmacological disruption of S1PR1 with multiple S1PR1 antagonists, including FTY720, blocked and reversed neuropathic pain. Mice with astrocyte-sp

Endothelial dysfunction and hemostatic imbalance in CAR T-cell-associated toxicities: pathophysiological insights and the role of circulating biomarkers.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has revolutionized the treatment of relapsed or refractory hematologic malignancies. While its clinical efficacy is well established, CAR T-cell therapy is frequently associated with severe immune-mediated toxicities, including cytokine release syndrome (CRS), immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), coagulopathy, and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis-like syndrome (IEC-HS). Increasing evidence suggests that endothelial dysfunction, hemostatic imbalance, and complement activation are key contributors to the pathogenesis of

Bone Metabolism Effects of Medical Therapy in Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma.

The medical therapy of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is based on the use of targeted therapies, such as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). These therapies are characterized by multiple endocrine adverse events, but the effect on the bone is still less known. Relatively few case reports or small case series have been specifically focused on TKI and ICI effects on bone metabolism. However, the importance to consider these possible side effects is easily intuitable because the bone is one of the most frequent metastatic sites of RCC. Among TKI used in R

Toxicities of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy in Multiple Myeloma: An Overview of Experience From Clinical Trials, Pathophysiology, and Management Strategies.

In the last few years, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) such as elotuzumab and daratutumab have brought the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM) into the new era of immunotherapy. More recently, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) modified T cell, a novel cellular immunotherapy, has been developed for treatment of relapsed/refractory (RR) MM, and early phase clinical trials have shown promising efficacy of CAR T cell therapy. Many patients with end stage RRMM regard CAR T cell therapy as their "last chance" and a "hope of cure". However, severe adverse events (AEs) and even toxic death related to CAR T

The Roadmap of RANKL/RANK Pathway in Cancer.

The receptor activator of the nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)/RANK signaling pathway was identified in the late 1990s and is the key mediator of bone remodeling. Targeting RANKL with the antibody denosumab is part of the standard of care for bone loss diseases, including bone metastases (BM). Over the last decade, evidence has implicated RANKL/RANK pathway in hormone and HER2-driven breast carcinogenesis and in the acquisition of molecular and phenotypic traits associated with breast cancer (BCa) aggressiveness and poor prognosis. This marked a new era in the research of the therapeutic use o

Endothelial dysfunction in congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency: current knowledge and novel biomarkers.

Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) is a complex endocrine disorder characterized by impaired cortisol synthesis and androgen excess. Beyond its hormonal and metabolic implications, CAH has been increasingly associated with an elevated risk of cardiovascular complications, including endothelial dysfunction, a critical precursor to atherosclerosis and a risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. This review explores the current knowledge on endothelial function in patients with CAH, focusing on the interplay between chronic hormonal imbalanc

Biological Role, Mechanism of Action and the Importance of Interleukins in Kidney Diseases.

Each year, the number of patients who are diagnosed with kidney disease too late is increasing, which leads to permanent renal failure. This growing problem affects people of every age, sex and origin, and its full etiopathogenesis is not fully understood, although the involvement of genetic susceptibility, infections, immune disorders or high blood pressure is suggested. Difficulties in making a correct and quick diagnosis are caused by the lack of research on early molecular markers, as well as educational and preventive activities among the public, which leads to the late detection of kidne

NDP52 и его новая роль в патогенезе.

Автофагика - это процесс, способствующий выживанию, который регулирует деградацию и обновление клеточных компонентов, что делает его важнейшим механизмом для клеточного гомеостазиза. Существуют выборочные формы автофагии, характерные для ряда субстратов, таких, как патогены (бактерии или вирусы), белковые агрегаты или излишние/поврежденные органеллы. Эти процессы включают в себя в качестве ключевых игроков автофагичные рецепторы, которые связывают груз, подлежащий деградации, с автофагическим оборудованием. Среди них NDP52 (известный также как КАКПО2) был охарактеризован как «бридж» между авто

"Complimenting the Complement": Mechanistic Insights and Opportunities for Therapeutics in Hepatocellular Carcinoma.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary malignancy of the liver and a leading cause of death in the US and worldwide. HCC remains a global health problem and is highly aggressive with unfavorable prognosis. Even with surgical interventions and newer medical treatment regimens, patients with HCC have poor survival rates. These limited therapeutic strategies and mechanistic understandings of HCC immunopathogenesis urgently warrant non-palliative treatment measures. Irrespective of the multitude etiologies, the liver microenvironment in HCC is intricately associated with chronic

Recent Progress of Stem Cell Therapy in Cancer Treatment: Molecular Mechanisms and Potential Applications.

The insufficient and unspecific target of traditional therapeutic approaches in cancer treatment often leads to therapy resistance and cancer recurrence. Over the past decades, accumulating discoveries about stem cell biology have provided new potential approaches to cure cancer patients. Stem cells possess unique biological actions, including self-renewal, directional migration, differentiation, and modulatory effects on other cells, which can be utilized as regenerative medicine, therapeutic carriers, drug targeting, and generation of immune cells. In this review, we emphasize the mechanisms

Mechanisms and management of CAR T toxicity.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies have dramatically improved treatment outcomes for patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. Despite unprecedented efficacy, treatment with CAR T cell therapies can cause a multitude of adverse effects which require monitoring and management at specialized centers and contribute to morbidity and non-relapse mortality. Such toxicities include cytokine release syndrome, immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome, neuro

Influence of the TGF-β Superfamily on Osteoclasts/Osteoblasts Balance in Physiological and Pathological Bone Conditions.

The balance between bone forming cells (osteoblasts/osteocytes) and bone resorbing cells (osteoclasts) plays a crucial role in tissue homeostasis and bone repair. Several hormones, cytokines, and growth factors-in particular the members of the TGF-β superfamily such as the bone morphogenetic proteins-not only regulate the proliferation, differentiation, and functioning of these cells, but also coordinate the communication between them to ensure an appropriate response. Therefore, this review focuses on TGF-β superfamily and its influence on bone formation and repair, through the regulation of

TGF-β: an active participant in the immune and metabolic microenvironment of multiple myeloma : TGF-β in the microenvironment of multiple myeloma.

Although substantial quantities of potent therapies for multiple myeloma (MM) have been established, MM remains an incurable disease. In recent years, our understanding of the initiation, development, and metastasis of cancers has made a qualitative leap. Cancers attain the abilities to maintain proliferation signals, escape growth inhibitors, resist cell death, induce angiogenesis, and more importantly, escape anti-tumor immunity and reprogram metabolism, which are the hallmarks of cancers. Besides, different cancers have different tumor microenvironments (TME), thus, we pay more attention to

The ambiguous role of obesity in oncology by promoting cancer but boosting antitumor immunotherapy.

Obesity is nowadays considered a pandemic which prevalence's has been steadily increasingly in western countries. It is a dynamic, complex, and multifactorial disease which propitiates the development of several metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, as well as cancer. Excessive adipose tissue has been causally related to cancer progression and is a preventable risk factor for overall and cancer-specific survival, associated with poor prognosis in cancer patients. The onset of obesity features a state of chronic low-grade inflammation and secretion of a diversity of adipocyte-derived molecules
