Met inhibition revokes IFNγ-induction of PD-1 ligands in MET-amplified tumours
2019
BACKGROUND: Interferon-induced expression of programmed cell death ligands (PD-L1/PD-L2) may sustain tumour immuneevasion. Patients featuring MET amplification, a genetic lesion driving transformation, may benefit from anti-MET treatment. We explored if MET-targeted therapy interferes with Interferon-gamma modulation of PD-L1/PD-L2 in MET-amplified tumours.METHODS: PD-L1/PD-L2 expression and signalling pathways downstream of MET or Interferon-gamma were analysed in MET-amplified tumour cell lines and in patient-derived tumour organoids, in basal condition, upon Interferon-gamma stimulation, and after anti-MET therapy.RESULTS: PD-L1 and PD-L2 were upregulated in MET-amplified tumour cells up…

Targeting Phosphatases and Kinases: How to Checkmate Cancer
2021
Metastatic disease represents the major cause of death in oncologic patients worldwide. Accumulating evidence have highlighted the relevance of a small population of cancer cells, named cancer stem cells (CSCs), in the resistance to therapies, as well as cancer recurrence and metastasis. Standard anti-cancer treatments are not always conclusively curative, posing an urgent need to discover new targets for an effective therapy. Kinases and phosphatases are implicated in many cellular processes, such as proliferation, differentiation and oncogenic transformation. These proteins are crucial regulators of intracellular signaling pathways mediating multiple cellular activities. Therefore, altera…
Nueva era en el combate contra el cáncer: Evolución y cáncer: progreso y tratamiento de tumores
2013
L’oncohematologia ha assistit en les últimes dècades a importants avenços en el tractament i supervivència. La toxicitat derivada de la quimioteràpia clàssica i la necessitat de millorar l’eficàcia i tolerància als tractaments han fet que es desencadene un allau d’activitat investigadora que constantment proporciona fruits. Gran part d’aquest esforç s’ha enfocat al desenvolupament de «teràpies diana» dirigides contra determinades alteracions funcionals, clau per a la supervivència de la cèl·lula tumoral. Així es pretén aconseguir major eficàcia en el tractament i que el pacient pague un menor cost en toxicitat. Avenços en altres disciplines de l’oncologia com l’epidemiologia, la cirurgia i …
