The entire sculpture from the artist comes in 4 pieces: 2 for the base, 1 for the mid section, and 1 for the top. Overall, this study demonstrates that the development of resistance may be directed by altering the tumor microenvironment to improve treatment timing and the probability of relapse.I set out on a task to print this Deadpool knife holder that I found on thingverse for a friend.
Importantly, this phenotype was reversed by coculturing melanoma cells with Ccr2 + macrophages. Unstable resistance was characterized by sensitivity to targeted therapy when factors from the microenvironment were lost.
Comparison of melanomas that develop in a Ccr2-proficient or -deficient microenvironment demonstrated that lack of melanoma infiltrating Ccr2 + macrophages delayed onset of resistance and shifted melanoma cell evolution towards unstable resistance. During the onset of a drug-tolerant persister state, Ccr2 + monocyte-derived macrophage infiltration rose, suggesting that macrophage influx at this point could facilitate the onset of stable drug resistance that melanoma cells show after several weeks of treatment. Here, we used clinically relevant in vivo Braf-mutant melanoma models with fluorescent markers to track the stage-specific changes in macrophages under targeted therapy with Braf/Mek inhibitors and assessed the dynamic evolution of the macrophage population generated by therapy pressure-induced stress. Tumor-associated macrophages often support neoplastic growth and are frequently the most abundant immune cell found in tumors.
Understanding how the tumor microenvironment contributes to the evolution of diverse resistance pathways could aid in the design of sequential treatments that can elicit and take advantage of a predictable resistance trajectory. One approach to deal with the challenge of resistance entails extending anticancer treatments beyond targeting cancer cells by additionally altering the tumor microenvironment. Therapies targeting oncogene addiction have had a tremendous impact on tumor growth and patient outcome, but drug resistance continues to be problematic.
