Tumor metastasis is an important reason for the difficulty of tumor treatment. Besides the tumor cells themselves, the tumor microenvironment plays an important role in the process of tumor metastasis. Tumor infiltrating immune cells (TIICs) are one of the main components of TME and plays an important role in every link of tumor metastasis. This article mainly reviews the role of tumor-infiltrating immune cells in epithelial mesenchymal transformation, extracellular matrix remodeling, tumor angiogenesis and formation of pre-metastatic niche. The value of TIICs in the prognosis of cervical cancer, lung cancer and breast cancer was also discussed. We believe that accurate prognosis of cancer treatment outcomes is conducive to further improving treatment regimens, determining personalized treatment strategies, and ultimately achieving successful cancer treatment. This paper elucidates the relationship between tumor and TIICs in order to explore the function of immune cells in different diseases and provide new ideas for the treatment of cancer.

Optimizing T cell inflamed signature through a combination biomarker approach for predicting immunotherapy response in NSCLC.

The introduction of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapies revolutionized treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), yet response rates remain modest, underscoring the need for predictive biomarkers. While a T cell inflamed gene expression profile (GEP) has predicted anti-PD-1 response in various cancers, it failed in a large NSCLC cohort from the Stand Up To Cancer-Mark (SU2C-MARK) Foundation. Re-analysis revealed that while the T cell inflamed GEP alone was not predictive, its performance improved significantly when combined with gene signatures of myeloid cell markers.

LAG3 plays a regulatory role in immunity and emerged as an inhibitory immune checkpoint molecule comparable to PD-L1 and CTLA-4 and a potential target for enhancing anti-cancer immune responses. We generated 3D cancer cultures as a model to identify novel molecular biomarkers for the selection of patients suitable for α-LAG3 treatment and simultaneously the possibility to perform an early diagnosis due to its higher presence in breast cancer, also to achieve a theragnostic approach. Our data confirm the extreme dysregulation of LAG3 in breast cancer with significantly higher expression in tumor tissue specimens, compared to non-cancerous tissue controls.

Influenza virus infections are a serious danger to people's health worldwide as they are responsible for seasonal flu outbreaks. There is an urgent need to improve the effectiveness and durability longevity of the immune response to influenza vaccines. We synthesized the CpG HP021 and examined the impact of it on the immune response to an influenza vaccine.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most prevalent secondary sarcoma associated with retinoblastoma (RB). However, the molecular mechanisms driving the interactions between these two diseases remain incompletely understood. This study aims to explore the transcriptomic commonalities and molecular pathways shared by RB and OS, and to identify biomarkers that predict OS prognosis effectively.

Although antiretroviral therapy (ART) has dramatically improved the outlook of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, people living with HIV (PLWH) on suppressive therapy are still at higher risk for a range of comorbidities including cardiovascular disease (CVD) and HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND), among others. Chronic inflammation and immune activation are thought to be an underlying cause of these comorbidities. Many of the factors thought to drive chronic inflammation and immune activation in HIV overlap with factors known to induce trained immunity.
