Innate immune cells and their contribution to T-cell-based immunotherapy

Ginefra, Pierpaolo ; Lorusso, Girieca ; Vannini, Nicola

In: International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020, vol. 21, no. 12, p. 4441

In recent years, immunotherapy has become the most promising therapy for a variety of cancer types. The development of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapies, the adoptive transfer of tumor-specific T cells (adoptive cell therapy (ACT)) or the generation of T cells engineered with chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) have been successfully applied to elicit durable immunological responses in...

Shp-2 is dispensable for establishing T cell exhaustion and for PD-1 signaling in vivo

Rota, Giorgia ; Niogret, Charlène ; Dang, Anh Thu ; Ramon Barros, Cristina ; Fonta, Nicolas Pierre ; Alfei, Francesca ; Morgado, Leonor ; Zehn, Dietmar ; Birchmeier, Walter ; Vivier, Eric ; Guarda, Greta

In chronic infection and cancer, T cells acquire a dysfunctional state characterized by the expression of inhibitory receptors. In vitro studies implicated the phosphatase Shp-2 downstream of these receptors, including PD-1. However, whether Shp-2 is responsible in vivo for such dysfunctional responses remains elusive. To address this, we generated T cell- specific Shp-2-deficient mice. These...
