Anti-tumor effect of combining CC chemokine 22 and an anti-CD25 antibody on myeloma cells implanted subcutaneously into mice

Abstract: Abstract. Chemokines are known to have anti-tumor effects due to their chemoattractant properties, which stimulate the accumulation of infiltrating immune cells in tumors. CCL22 (macrophage-derived chemokine, MDC) attracts killer T cells, helper T cells and antigen-presenting cells expressing the CCL22 receptor, CCR4. Thus, CCL22 gene expression results in the accumulation of these cells in tumors, and has been shown to suppress lung and colon cancer growth in mice. In the present study, early-stage subcutaneo… Show more

“…Accordingly, high baseline levels of MDC in our responding patients support its role in promoting an immune response by T-helper cells recruitment . In vivo MDC has been shown to suppress lung and colon cancer growth (Cho et al , 2009). Moreover, an MDC-increased gene expression in tumour tissue turned out to be a favourable prognostic factor (Nakajima et al , 2006) and its concentration levels strongly correlates with the frequency of FOXP3-positive cells (Mizukami et al , 2008).…”

“…The specific recruitment of Tregs results in immune suppression in the advanced stages of ovarian cancer [67]. The paradox that early stage tumors are inhibited by infiltrating antitumor immune cells which is reversed by suppressive Tregs through CCR4/CCL22 interaction is also observed in myeloma [68]. Thus, chemokines and GPCRs play a crucial role in regulating pro- and antitumor responses by recruiting different types of immune cells (Table 2).…”
