Association of low skeletal muscle index with increased systematic inflammatory responses and interferon γ-induced protein 10 levels in patients with colon cancer.
In vitro, the CT26 and MC38 murine colon cancer cell lines were shown to upregulate IDO expression following stimulation with interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α).
In vivo gene therapy of colon cancer nodules by intratumoral injection of AdCMVIL-12 induced a local increase in IL-12 and interferon-gamma levels and a complete regression of the tumor in 26 of 34 (76%) mice.
Our findings present a previously unrecognized mechanism that colon cancer manipulate to resist IFNγ mediated antitumor immunity that have implications for targeting a unique aspect of this disease.
The bacteria boosted IFNγ+ CD8+ T-cell counts and enhanced anti-PD-1 and anti-CTLA4 treatments in mice implanted with colon cancer or melanoma cells, findings that could have implications for patient care.
The effects of fluorouracil (5-FU) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) on the regulation of thymidylate synthase (TS) gene expression were investigated in the human colon cancer H630 cell line.
We also investigated the effects of Paeonol in colon cancer-derived CW-2 cells and T cell leukemia-derived Jurkat cells treated with tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) and/or interferon gamma (IFNgamma), which play critical roles in TNBS-induced colitis.
