5. The main focus of my research interest
• Understanding the regulatory mechanisms behind
escape of cancer and virus from immunity:
– myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC)
– CD4 regulatory T cells
– Cancer Stem cell
• Develop new anti-cancer immunotherapeutic
strategies:
– The use of cytokines and TLR agonists to enhance T
cell function
– The use of TLR agonists to enhance dendritic cell
based vaccination

12. Cancer Therapy
In clinic
• Surgery:
Effective but doesn’t cure tumor
metastasis or prevent tumor recurrence
• Radiotherapy/Chemotherapy:
Effective but doesn’t prevent tumor
recurrence besides its serous side
effects
Prof. Mohamed Labib Salem
13. Cancer Therapy
In clinic and clinical trials
• Immunotherapy:
Can cure local and distant tumors
and prevent tumor recurrence
through developing tumor-
specific memory T cell responses

32. Causes of Failure of Cancer Immunotherapy
Intrinsic/extrinsic mechanisms
Prof. Mohamed Labib Salem
33. Causes of Failure of Cancer Immunotherapy
1- Intrinsic mechanisms
• Tumor cells originate from self
(i.e. not foreign)
• Tumor-specific T cells are absent.
• Tumor-reactive immune cells do not
localize to the tumor.
• T cells fail to proliferate and persist in
response to tumors.

36. • Tumor favor expansion of Regulatory cells
that inhibit tumor-specific T-cell activities
• Downregulation of antigen expression in
tumor cells.
• Secretion of immunosuppressive factors.
• Death-receptors such as CD95 and TRAIL
receptor are mutated or lost entirely.

and function.
2. IL-12-programed CD8+ T cells regress tumor in
absence of vaccination.
3. Preconditioning the recipient hosts with
cyclophopsphamide is a must.
4. IL-12 programs CD8+ T cells to acquire stem cell
phenotype.
5. CD8+ T cells with stem cell phenotype resist
cytotoxic effects of chmotherapy

52. Phases post CTX treatment relative to adoptive T
cell therapy (Salem CII 2010)
• Creation of a space niche due to
the induced lymphopenia
• Homeostatic expansion of T cells
• Elimination of regulatory cells
• Elimination of cytokine
competition
• Microbial translocation
• Activation of dendritic cells
• Cellular recovery from lymphopenia
• Less of lymphopenia
• Less homeostatic proliferation of T cells
• Expansion of immature dendritic cells

Notas do Editor
Any non-self substance capable of triggering an immune response is known as an antigen. An antigen can be a whole non-self cell, a bacterium, a virus, an MHC marker protein or even a portion of a protein from a foreign organism.
The distinctive markers on antigens that trigger an immune response are called epitopes. When tissues or cells from another individual enter your body carrying such antigenic non-self epitopes, your immune cells react. This explains why transplanted tissues may be rejected as foreign and why antibodies will bind to them.
