Introduction: CLEC10A is a C-type lectin receptor that specifically marks the conventional dendritic cell subsets two and three (cDC2 and DC3). It has a unique recognition profile of glycan antigens, with terminal N-Acetylgalactosamine residues that are frequently present in the tumor microenvironment. Even though CLEC10A expression allows for precise targeting of cDC2 and DC3 for the treatment of cancer, CLEC10A signaling has also been associated with anti-inflammatory responses that would promote tumor growth.

Areas Covered: Here, we review the potential benefits and drawbacks of CLEC10A engagement in the tumor microenvironment. We discuss the CLEC10A-mediated effects in different cell types and incorporate the pleiotropic effects of IL-10, the main anti-inflammatory response upon CLEC10A binding.

Expert Opinion: To translate this to a successful CLEC10A-mediated immunotherapy with limited tumor-promoting capacities, finding the right ligand presentation and adjuvant combination will be key.

Objectives: To study the predictive role of tumor-associated neutrophils in early luminal HER2-negative breast cancer.

Materials And Methods: This is a retrospective study conducted on 60 women cases aged from 31 to 79 years underwent surgery for luminal HER2-negative ductal breast cancer in tertiary care cancer centre. We first estimated basic morphological signs: tumor size, tumor grade (by Nottingham Histologic Score), tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), Lymphovascular invasion, hormonal receptors status, proliferative index, and regional lymph nodes metastasis.

Background: Pancreatic cancer (PAC) has a complex tumor immune microenvironment, and currently, there is a lack of accurate personalized treatment. Establishing a novel consensus machine learning driven signature (CMLS) that offers a unique predictive model and possible treatment targets for this condition was the goal of this study.

Methods: This study integrated multiple omics data of PAC patients, applied ten clustering techniques and ten machine learning approaches to construct molecular subtypes for PAC, and created a new CMLS.

Eosinophilia is a notable feature in various hematological malignancies, including specific types of leukemias and lymphomas that may occur in the head and neck. In hematologic malignancies, eosinophilia can be primary, driven by genetic abnormalities, or secondary, resulting from cytokine and chemokine production by the neoplastic cells or the tumor microenvironment. This review examines the association between eosinophilia and head and neck hematolymphoid malignancies including Classic Hodgkin lymphoma, T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia, mature T and NK-cell lymphomas, and Langerhans cell histiocytosis.

Paradoxical control of multifocal mammary oncogenesis by radiation therapy.

Oncoimmunology

December 2025

Cancer Signaling and Microenvironment Program, Fox Chase Cancer Center, Philadelphia, PA, USA.

In an immunocompetent mouse model of multifocal, metachronous HR mammary carcinogenesis, we have recently demonstrated that a superior control of primary neoplastic lesions by focal radiotherapy does not necessarily translate into improved oncosuppression at non-irradiated (pre)malignant tissues. These data point to a link between local tumor control by radiotherapy and systemic oncogenesis that remains to be fully understood.
