[HTML][HTML] The critical role of the tumor microenvironment in shaping natural killer cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity
Considerable evidence has been gathered over the last 10 years showing that the tumor
microenvironment (TME) is not simply a passive recipient of immune cells, but an active …

[HTML][HTML] Improving cancer immunotherapy by targeting the hypoxic tumor microenvironment: new opportunities and challenges
Initially believed to be a disease of deregulated cellular and genetic expression, cancer is
now also considered a disease of the tumor microenvironment. Over the past two decades, …

Exosomes released by chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells induce the transition of stromal cells into cancer-associated fibroblasts
Exosomes derived from solid tumor cells are involved in immune suppression, angiogenesis,
and metastasis, but the role of leukemia-derived exosomes has been less investigated. …

Granzyme B degradation by autophagy decreases tumor cell susceptibility to natural killer-mediated lysis under hypoxia
Recent studies demonstrated that autophagy is an important regulator of innate immune
response. However, the mechanism by which autophagy regulates natural killer (NK) cell-…

Hypoxic tumor-derived microvesicles negatively regulate NK cell function by a mechanism involving TGF-β and miR23a transfer
G Berchem, MZ Noman, M Bosseler, J Paggetti… - …, 2016 - Taylor & Francis
Tumor-derived microvesicles (TD-MVs) are key mediators which are shed by cancer cells
and can sensitize neighboring cells in the tumor microenvironment. TD-MVs are extracellular …
