简介:AbstractMedulloblastoma is the most common primary pediatric malignancy of the central nervous system. Recurrent and refractory patients account for approximately 30% of them. Immune cells are an important component of the brain tumor microenvironment, including tumor-associated macrophages, T lymphocytes, natural killer cells, dendritic cells, neutrophils and B lymphocytes. Understanding how they behave and interact is important in the investigation of the onset and progression of medulloblastoma. Here, we overview the features and recent advances of each component of immune cells in medulloblastoma. Meanwhile, immunotherapy is a promising but also challenging treatment strategy for medulloblastoma. At present, there are a growing number of immunotherapeutic approaches under investigation including immune checkpoint inhibitors, oncolytic viruses, cancer vaccines, chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapies, and natural killer cells in recurrent and refractory medulloblastoma patients.

简介:AbstractHidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition that poses a significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for clinicians, as the underlying etiology and pathogenesis remains unclear. The host of genetic mutations and immune dysfunction has been identified to be involved in the pathogenesis of HS during recent years. These genetic defects, including monogenetic mutations altering subunits of γ-secretase, a protease that functions through Notch signaling to maintain skin appendages, promote epithelial stability, suppress/terminate innate immune responses (ie, Toll-receptors), further have the propensity to induce aberrant cytokine responses that create to a proinflammatory environment, consequently induce hyperkeratosis and promote expression of pro-inflammatory, locally destructive matrix metalloproteinases. Cytokine-driven inflammation propagates the disease state of HS and contributes to the formation of painful subcutaneous nodules, abscesses, and eventually, fistulas and draining sinus tracts. A closer look at genetic mutations linked to the disease may explain the immune perturbations seen in HS. An understanding of the immune cells and inflammatory markers expressed in affected individuals provides insight into disease pathogenesis and can help identify therapeutic targets.
