Tumor‐infiltrating dendritic cells exhibit defective cross‐presentation of tumor antigens, but is reversed by chemotherapy

Abstract: Cross-presentation defines the unique capacity of an APC to present exogenous Ag via MHC class I molecules to CD8+ T cells. DCs are specialized cross-presenting cells and as such have a critical role in antitumor immunity. DCs are routinely found within the tumor microenvironment, but their capacity for endogenous or therapeutically enhanced cross-presentation is not well characterized. In this study, we examined the tumor and lymph node DC cross-presentation of a nominal marker tumor Ag, HA, expressed by the … Show more

“…The hypothesis to support this is that some cytotoxic therapies can provide "immunogenic apoptosis" by releasing tumor antigens at the site of the tumor and allowing better presentation of tumor antigens by APCs 58 ; this could not only provide cytoreduction but also immunologically increase the activity of checkpoint blockade. [59][60][61] To some extent, the potential benefit of concomitant cytotoxic therapy may need to be balanced against the inhibition of immune function that attends chemotherapy, as many drugs will affect lymphocytes as well as tumor cells. In theory, it may be best to partner CBT with agents that are relatively …”

“…Gemcitabine was found to have positive effects on the ability of intratumoural DCs to present antigens to tumour-specific T cells (McDonnell et al 2015). Importantly, gemcitabine primed the host for a strong anti-tumour response after a second insult with a virus expressing the same antigen (Nowak et al 2003).…”

“…Expression of the antigen is linked to a poor prognosis. MAGE-A3 recognised by cytotoxic cells provides ground for production of numerous vaccines [88]. In clinical trials the need is stressed for confirmation of expression of the antigen on tumour cells before treatment.…”
