Background
Pre-metastatic niches composed of mainly myeloid cells are recognized as critical for tumor metastasis. However, whether adaptive immune cells also play an important role in pre-metastatic niche formation remains to be explored.

Background
Metabolic reprogramming through enhanced glycolysis is a hallmark of cancer that supports tumor progression and promotes protumor immune responses. Methylglyoxal (MG), a reactive by-product of glycolysis, has recently emerged as an oncometa…
Background
Immunotherapeutic approaches for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) remain limited to programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) blockade. Although genomics studies have characterized key driver mutations in cSCC, preclinical models that …
Background
Acquired resistance limits the durability of programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) blockade in lung adenocarcinoma, yet the tumor-intrinsic programs and immune circuits that drive acquired resistance relapse remain poorly defined. The purp…
Background
Nearly half of patients with melanoma do not respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs) and many develop immune-related adverse events (irAEs), often forcing treatment discontinuation, and underscoring the need to predict and monitor ou…
Background
The tumor microbiota critically shapes responses to immunotherapy; however, the mechanisms by which specific microbial species drive immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) resistance in gastric cancer (GC) remain poorly defined.

Streptoc…
Background
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has emerged as a pivotal cancer treatment by activating antitumor immunity. However, its clinical efficacy remains limited in many patients, highlighting the need for combination strategies to overco…
Background
The low response rate to immunotherapy in patients with lung adenocarcinoma is primarily due to tumor immune evasion. The tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment orchestrates this evasion, yet the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here…
Background
Resistance to anti-programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) treatment in gastric cancer (GC) is closely associated with an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. However, the role of neutrophils in resistance to anti-PD-1 therapy remains u…
Background
Although immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) continues to demonstrate limited clinical responses, highlighting the urgent need for novel immunomodulatory strategies. Trained immunity, an emergin…
