Contents:
Introduction -- Basic rules of T cell migration -- Regulation of anti-tumor T cell migration and function: contribution of real-time imaging -- Vascular normalization, T cell trafficking and anti-tumor immunity -- Disruption of anti-tumor T cell responses by cancer-associated fibroblasts -- Cancer-associated Tertiary Lymphoid Structures, from basic knowledge toward therapeutic target in clinic -- Homing Improvement: Boosting T Cell Trafficking for Cancer Immunotherapy -- Chemokines and T cell trafficking into tumors. Strategies to enhance recruitment of T cells into tumors -- Strategies to enhance migration and persistence of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells into tumors.
Abstract: This volume focuses on recent advances in understanding T cells as key players in antitumor immune responses, and as a result T cell-based immunotherapy is starting to transform the treatment of advanced cancers. However, despite recent successes, many patients with cancer fail to respond to these treatments. Defective migration of T cells into and within tumors is considered as an important resistance mechanism to cancer immunotherapy. The volume includes three sections. The first section covers general knowledge about T cell trafficking during a normal immune response but also during tumor development. The second section provides an in-depth description of the different obstacles that prevent T cells from migrating and contacting tumor cells. The third section explores therapeutic strategies to improve trafficking of T cells into tumors and, thus, to enhance the effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy.
