Abstract

Mast cells (MCs) are granulocytic immune cells that reside in tissues exposed to the external environment. MCs are best known for their activity in allergic reactions, but they have been involved in different physiological and pathological conditions. In particular, MC infiltration has been shown in several types of human tumors and in animal cancer models. Nevertheless, the role of MCs in the tumor microenvironment is still debated because they have been associated either to good or poor prognosis depending on tumor type and tissue localization. This dichotomous role relies on MC capacity to secrete a broad spectrum of molecules with modulatory functions, which may condition the final tumor outcome also promoting angiogenesis and tissue remodeling. In this review, we analyze the multifaceted role of mast cell in tumor progression and inhibition considering their ability to interact with: i) immune cells, ii) tumor cells and iii) the extracellular matrix. Eventually, the current MC targeting strategies to treat cancer patients are discussed. Deciphering the actual role of MCs in tumor onset and progression is crucial to identify MC-targeted treatments aimed at killing cancer cells or at making the tumor vulnerable to selected anti-cancer drugs.

Preface

Adjuvante Immuntherapie verlängert Leben bei RCC

25.04.2024 Nierenkarzinom Nachrichten

Nun gibt es auch Resultate zum Gesamtüberleben: Eine adjuvante Pembrolizumab-Therapie konnte in einer Phase-3-Studie das Leben von Menschen mit Nierenzellkarzinom deutlich verlängern. Die Sterberate war im Vergleich zu Placebo um 38% geringer.

Alectinib verbessert krankheitsfreies Überleben bei ALK-positivem NSCLC

25.04.2024 NSCLC Nachrichten

Das Risiko für Rezidiv oder Tod von Patienten und Patientinnen mit reseziertem ALK-positivem NSCLC ist unter einer adjuvanten Therapie mit dem Tyrosinkinase-Inhibitor Alectinib signifikant geringer als unter platinbasierter Chemotherapie.

Bei Senioren mit Prostatakarzinom auf Anämie achten!

24.04.2024 DGIM 2024 Nachrichten

Patienten, die zur Behandlung ihres Prostatakarzinoms eine Androgendeprivationstherapie erhalten, entwickeln nicht selten eine Anämie. Wer ältere Patienten internistisch mitbetreut, sollte auf diese Nebenwirkung achten.

ICI-Therapie in der Schwangerschaft wird gut toleriert

Müssen sich Schwangere einer Krebstherapie unterziehen, rufen Immuncheckpointinhibitoren offenbar nicht mehr unerwünschte Wirkungen hervor als andere Mittel gegen Krebs.
