Cytokine-Based immunotherapy: Part B, Volume 401 delves into the intricate world of cytokines, vital signaling proteins that orchestrate the immune response and their pivotal role in modulating various immune functions. From their fundamental mechanisms to their therapeutic applications, this book offers a thorough examination of the latest trends and developments in leveraging cytokines for immunotherapy. Chapters cover Cytokine-based immunotherapy in pancreatic cancer, IL-33 and its pleiotropic role in cancer, Immunocytokines based on IL-12 for cancer therapy: enhancing efficacy and reducing toxicity, Cytokine network in immunosuppression and tumor development in glioblastoma, The Double-Edged Role of Interferon Gamma in Cancer Immunity, and much more.
An additional section covers Engineering Interleukin-10 for Therapeutic Applications, IL-23 Blockade: A Strategy for Relieving Inflammatory Diseases. Targeting TNF-alpha examines the immunotherapeutic approach for alleviating neuropathic pain. The key role of immunomodulatory cytokines for the development of novel nk cell-based cancer therapies focuses on the importance of cytokines in developing new cancer treatments. Finally, complexities in the clinical development of TGFβ inhibitors covers the challenges in creating inhibitors for TGFβ.
