Abstract 668: The translational biology of small molecule GPR65 inhibitors: shared effects between mouse models and human primary tumors highlight the unique transformative potential of targeting a genetically validated innate immune checkpoint
Abstract:Whilst the advent of Immune Checkpoint Blockade has revolutionized the management of cancer, a significant proportion of patients have limited or absent response to these therapies. A key cause of this immune insensitivity is the hostile solid tumor microenvironment (TME) dominated by immunosuppressive myeloid cells. We previously identified the acid sensing G protein coupled receptor (GPCR), GPR65, as a primary determinant of these suppressive cells. In mice, genetic deletion of Gpr65 or oral administration o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
