Lipid metabolic remodeling delays senescence of T cells to potentiate their immunity against solid tumors.

J Immunother Cancer

January 2025

Background: Tumor cells can drive the senescence of effector T cells by unbalancing their lipid metabolism, thereby limiting adoptive T cell therapy and contributing to tumor immune evasion. Our objective is to provide a feasible strategy for enhancing T cell treatment efficacy against solid tumors.

Methods: In this study, liposomal arachidonyl trifluoromethyl ketone (ATK) was anchored onto the adoptive T cell surface via bioorthogonal reactions, aiming to specifically inhibit the group IVA cytosolic phospholipase Aα (cPLAα), a key enzyme facilitating phospholipid metabolism and senescent state of T cells.

Purpose: Patients with rare cancer often experience diagnostic delays and limited treatment options, potentially negatively impacting their working lives. We explored whether those with rare vs. common cancer have an increased risk of loss of contractual employment (1) up to 2 years pre-diagnosis, (2) up to 5 years post-diagnosis, and (3) which characteristics of rare cancer survivors are associated with loss of contractual employment 5 years post-diagnosis.

Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an inherited disorder that follows an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern and is caused by a germline pathogenic variant in the APC gene. FAP also has extracolonic manifestations, including osteomas, brain tumors, and congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigmented epithelium. Desmoid tumor is a rare soft-tissue tumor often associated with FAP.

Background: Anastomotic leakage (AL) is a major complication in colorectal surgery, particularly following rectal cancer surgery, necessitating effective prevention strategies. The increasing frequency of colorectal resections and anastomoses during cytoreductive surgery (CRS) for peritoneal carcinomatosis further complicates this issue owing to the diverse patient populations with varied tumor distributions and surgical complexities. This study aims to assess and compare AL incidence and associated risk factors across conventional colorectal cancer surgery (CRC), gastrointestinal CRS (GI-CRS), and ovarian CRS (OC-CRS), with a secondary focus on evaluating the role of protective ostomies.

Introduction: Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a current treatment option for peritoneal carcinosis (PC) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS). Genital skin alterations are rare complications reported variously after HIPEC using Mitomycin-C.

Presentation Of Case: A 42-year-old man with a diagnosis of stage IV colorectal cancer underwent CRS and HIPEC using mitomycin-C.
