Resistance to immune cell-mediated cytotoxicity poses a significant challenge in cancer therapy, compromising the efficacy of immunotherapeutic approaches such as immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) treatment. To enhance therapy outcomes, it is crucial to identify interventions that can synergize with ...
mRNA translation is a highly conserved and tightly-controlled mechanism for protein synthesis. However, despite protein quality control mechanisms, amino-acid shortage in melanoma induces aberrant proteins by ribosomal frameshifting. The extent and the underlying mechanisms related to this phenomeno...
Many tumors escape by activating multiple cellular pathways that induce immunosuppression. One pivotal immune-suppressive mechanism is the production of tryptophan metabolites along the kynurenine pathway by IFNγ-induced IDO1 enzyme production 4-8. Phase III clinical trials using chemical inhibition...
