γδ T Cells and Tumor Microenvironment: From Immunosurveillance to Tumor Evasion.
2018
gamma delta T cells possess cytotoxic antitumor activity mediated by production of proinflammatory cytokines, direct cytotoxic activity, and regulation of the biological functions of other cell types. Hence, these features have prompted the development of therapeutic strategies in which gamma delta T cells agonists or ex vivo-expanded gamma delta T cells are administered to tumor patients. Several studies have shown that gamma delta T cells are an important component of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in patients affected by different types of cancer and a recent analysis of similar to 18,000 transcriptomes from 39 human tumors identified tumor-infiltrating.d T cells as the most significant …
cis-Regulatory sequences driving the expression of the Hbox12 homeobox-containing gene in the presumptive aboral ectoderm territory of the Paracentro…

AbstractEmbryonic development is coordinated by networks of evolutionary conserved regulatory genes encoding transcription factors and components of cell signalling pathways. In the sea urchin embryo, a number of genes encoding transcription factors display territorial restricted expression. Among these, the zygotic Hbox12 homeobox gene is transiently transcribed in a limited number of cells of the animal-lateral half of the early Paracentrotus lividus embryo, whose descendants will constitute part of the ectoderm territory. To obtain insights on the regulation of Hbox12 expression, we have explored the cis-regulatory apparatus of the gene. In this paper, we show that the intergenic region …
