Tumor immune microenvironment and immunotherapy

Tumor immune microenvironment and immunotherapy



Tumor immune microenvironment and immunotherapy

Guest Editors: Zlatko Trajanoski and Noel de Miranda

New Content ItemCancer treatment has been revolutionized by recent unraveling and targeting of the interaction between tumors and the host immune system. Genome Medicine is pleased to announce a special issue on ‘Tumor immune microenvironment and immunotherapy’, guest edited by Zlatko Trajanoski of Medical University of Innsbruck and Noel de Miranda of Leiden University Medical Center. The issue captures recent insights using genomic approaches toward characterizing the immune system in the tumor microenvironment, immunotherapeutic targeting, as well as functional – and dysfunctional – anti-tumor immune responses, highlighting the clinical applications of these advances.
This collection of articles has not been sponsored and articles have undergone the journal’s standard peer-review process. The Guest Editors declare that they have no competing interests.  Guest Editors serve an advisory role to guide the scope of the special issue and commissioned content; final editorial decisions lie with the Editor.
  1. Content type:Review

    Neoantigens are newly formed peptides created from somatic mutations that are capable of inducing tumor-specific T cell recognition. Recently, researchers and clinicians have leveraged next generation sequenci...

    Neoantigens that arise as a consequence of tumor-specific mutations can be recognized by T lymphocytes leading to effective immune surveillance. In colorectal cancer (CRC) and other tumor types, a high number ...

  3. Content type:Opinion

    The expression of antigens that are recognized by self-reactive T cells is essential for immune-mediated tumor rejection by immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Growing evidence suggests that mutation-ass...

  4. Content type:Comment

    Personalized care of cancer patients undergoing treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors will require approaches that can predict their susceptibility to immune-related adverse events. Understanding the rol...

  6. Content type:Comment

    The nature of the tumor antigens that are detectable by T cells remains unclear. In melanoma, T cells were shown to react against major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-associated peptides (MAPs) that are deri...
