Anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy for relapsed or refractory (r/r) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) results in durable response in only a subset of patients. MYC overexpression in LBCL tumors is associated with poor response to treatment. We tested whether a MYC-driven polyamin...
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) exhibits profound immunometabolic suppression that impairs antigen presentation and constrains immunotherapy efficacy. Through integrated multi-omics analyses of primary human SCLC tumors, we identified midkine (MDK) as a dominant tumor-secreted driver of immune evas...
Cancer immunotherapy utilizing cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) has demonstrated significant promise in clinical applications, but cancer immunosuppressive mechanisms hamper further progress in T cell immunotherapy. Here we show a correlation between cancer cell mitochondria content and their resis...
Introduction: Primary liver cancer remains the third leading cause of global cancer-related mortality, with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) constituting the predominant histological subtype. The development of malignant ascites in advanced HCC patients signifies metastatic progression and portends...
