Background Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a difficult-to-treat global disease. Pegylated arginase (BCT-100) has recently shown anti-tumor effects in hepatocellular carcinoma, acute myeloid leukemia and melanoma. This study aims to investigate the effects of PEG-BCT-100 in MPM. Methods A panel of 5 mesothelioma cell lines (H28, 211H, H226, H2052 and H2452) was used to study the in vitro...
Lung cancer remains the top cancer killer worldwide, with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) as the second commonest histologic subtype. Arsenic trioxide (ATO) was previously shown to suppress growth of lung cancer. Fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) amplification was recently demonstrated in lung SCC, with specific FGFR inhibitor (e.g. PD173074) developed as a potential targeted therapy. Therefore...
Activating and inhibitory CD94/NKG2 receptors regulate CTL responses by altering TCR signaling, thus modifying antigen activation thresholds set during thymic selection. To determine whether their expression was linked to TCR specificity, we examined the TCR repertoire of oligoclonal CTL expansions found in human blood and tissues. High-resolution TCR repertoire analysis revealed that commitment to...
