[PDF][PDF] Combination cancer therapy with immune checkpoint blockade: mechanisms and strategies

SA Patel, AJ Minn - Immunity, 2018 - cell.com
The success of immune checkpoint blockade in patients with a wide variety of malignancies
has changed the treatment paradigm in oncology. However, combination therapies with …

[PDF][PDF] Combination cancer therapies with immune checkpoint blockade: convergence on interferon signaling

AJ Minn, EJ Wherry - Cell, 2016 - cell.com
Improving efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade for cancer can be facilitated by
combining these agents with each other and/or with other conventional or targeted therapies. …

Radiation and dual checkpoint blockade activate non-redundant immune mechanisms in cancer

…, SM Hahn, EJ Wherry, RH Vonderheide, AJ Minn - Nature, 2015 - nature.com
Immune checkpoint inhibitors 1 result in impressive clinical responses 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , but
optimal results will require combination with each other 6 and other therapies. This raises …

Tumour exosome integrins determine organotropic metastasis

…, MS Brady, O Fodstad, V Muller, K Pantel, AJ Minn… - Nature, 2015 - nature.com
Ever since Stephen Paget’s 1889 hypothesis, metastatic organotropism has remained one
of cancer’s greatest mysteries. Here we demonstrate that exosomes from mouse and human …

Genes that mediate breast cancer metastasis to lung

AJ Minn, GP Gupta, PM Siegel, PD Bos, W Shu, DD Giri… - Nature, 2005 - nature.com
By means of in vivo selection, transcriptomic analysis, functional verification and clinical
validation, here we identify a set of genes that marks and mediates breast cancer metastasis to …

Interferons and the immunogenic effects of cancer therapy

AJ Minn - Trends in immunology, 2015 - cell.com
Much of our understanding on resistance mechanisms to conventional cancer therapies such
as chemotherapy and radiation has focused on cell intrinsic properties that antagonize the …

Structure of Bcl-xL-Bak Peptide Complex: Recognition Between Regulators of Apoptosis

…, HS Yoon, SB Shuker, BS Chang, AJ Minn… - Science, 1997 - science.org
Heterodimerization between members of the Bcl-2 family of proteins is a key event in the
regulation of programmed cell death. The molecular basis for heterodimer formation was …

Genes that mediate breast cancer metastasis to the brain

…, C Nadal, W Shu, RR Gomis, DX Nguyen, AJ Minn… - Nature, 2009 - nature.com
The molecular basis for breast cancer metastasis to the brain is largely unknown 1 , 2 . Brain
relapse typically occurs years after the removal of a breast tumour 2 , 3 , 4 , suggesting that …

CD28 costimulation can promote T cell survival by enhancing the expression of Bcl-XL

LH Boise, AJ Minn, PJ Noel, CH June, MA Accavitti… - Immunity, 1995 - cell.com
T cell activation through the TCR can result in either cell proliferation or cell death. The role
of costlmulatory receptors in regulating T cell survival has not been defined. Here, we …

Mitotic progression following DNA damage enables pattern recognition within micronuclei

SM Harding, JL Benci, J Irianto, DE Discher, AJ Minn… - Nature, 2017 - nature.com
