This book was released on 2006-03-05 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A link between inflammation and cancer has been established many years ago, yet it is only recently that the potential significance of this connection has become apparent. Although several examples of chronic inflammatory conditions, often induced by persistent irritation and/or infection, developing into cancer have been known for some time, there has been a notable resistance to contemplate the possibility that this association may apply in a causative way to other cancers. Examples for such progression from chronic inflammation to cancer are colon carcinoma developing with increased frequency in patients with ulcerative colitis, and the increased incidence of bladder cancer in patients suffering from chronic Schistosoma infection. Inflammation and cancer have been recognized to be linked in another context for many years, i.e., with regards to pathologies resembling chronic lacerations or 'wounds that do not heal.' More recently, the immunology of wound healing has given us clues as to the mechanistic link between inflammation and cancer, in as much as wounds and chronic inflammation turn off local cell-mediated immune responses and switch on growth factor release as well the growth of new blood vessels - angiogenesis. Both of these are features of most types of tumours, which suggest that tumours may require an immunologically shielded milieu and a growth factor-rich environment.

Download or read book Lymphocytic Infiltration and Immune Escape Mechanisms in Human Chordoma written by Shalin S. Patel and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent advances in immunotherapy for cancer have led to increasing interest in the role of the immune system in the pathogenesis and treatment of various tumors. Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes have been associated with more favorable prognoses in a number of malignancies, though the mechanism of such outcomes remains unclear. This study, to our knowledge, is the first to describe lymphocytic infiltration in chordoma. Slides from 62 patients with chordoma were evaluated for lymphocyte infiltrates. Lymphocytic infiltration was found in 84% of tumors. Twenty-four tumors were selected for immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis. All of the tumors with lymphocytic infiltration that underwent IHC staining had CD4-positive lymphocytes present. CD8-positive lymphocytes were noted in 52% of tumors. HLA class I antigen defects were noted in 79% of chordoma tumors. These included negative membranous and/or cytoplasmic staining patterns, weakly positive staining, and heterogeneous combinations of these defects. Both heavy chain isoforms and beta-2-microglobulin components were affected. Our novel finding of intratumoral lymphocytes in chordoma tumors suggests that a patient's immune system mounts a response against their tumor. The absence of HLA class I antigen components is compatible with the possibility that a patient's immune response imposes selective pressure that facilitates the outgrowth of chordoma cell subpopulations that have developed escape mechanisms from host immune recognition. While the clinical significance requires further evaluation, these data have implications in optimally selecting patients for appropriate treatment regimens. We believe these data will spark further inquiry into the role of immunotherapy in the treatment of chordoma and other bone tumors.
