Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells

Abstract: Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are a heterogeneous population of immature myeloid cells that suppress innate and adaptive immunity. MDSCs are present in many disease settings; however, in cancer, they are a major obstacle for both natural antitumor immunity and immunotherapy. Tumor and host cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) produce a myriad of pro-inflammatory mediators that activate MDSCs and drive their accumulation and suppressive activity. MDSCs utilize a variety of mechanisms to suppress… Show more

“…They (i) inhibit the activation of tumor-reactive T cells through their production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and by sequestering or degrading amino acids that are essential for T cell function, (ii) polarize immunity and macrophages toward a type 2 phenotype that supports tumor growth, (iii) prevent naive T cells from entering lymph nodes and becoming activated by down-regulating T cell expression of L-selectin, (iv) inhibit the cytotoxic activity of natural killer cells, (v) promote neovascularization through their production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and (vi) promote metastasis through their production of matrix metalloproteases. 14 The inflammatory milieu present in most solid tumors exacerbates both the quantity and potency of MDSCs and induces their differentiation and accumulation from hematopoietic progenitor cells. 1517 MDSCs mediate most of their immune suppressive and tumor-promoting functions within the tumor microenvironment (TME).…”

“…MDSCs are a heterogeneous population of immature myeloid cells and myeloid progenitor cells [31-34]. Under physiological situations, these immature cells would normally give rise to myeloid cells such as granulocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells, however under conditions of stress, such as in infection, trauma, autoimmune diseases and cancer, a block in their usual differentiation pathway leads to the expansion of immature myeloid cells [31, 33, 34].…”

“…The MDSCs are a heterogeneous population of immature myeloid cells that are known to suppress the effects of the adaptive immune system and T-cell responses in particular. 10,11 The role of MDSCs in suppressing inflammation-related diseases has a been demonstrated in patients with cancer, 12 autoimmune disease, 13 as well as chronic infection and inflammatory bowel disease.…”
