A road less traveled paved by IDO silencing: Harnessing the antitumor activity of neutrophils

Orchestrating a cytotoxic polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) response strictly focused within the tumor tissue remains a formidable challenge for the successful therapeutic use of these cells. A Salmonella vector carrying an shRNA against indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase has been shown to recruit PMNs an...

Sumario:Orchestrating a cytotoxic polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) response strictly focused within the tumor tissue remains a formidable challenge for the successful therapeutic use of these cells. A Salmonella vector carrying an shRNA against indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase has been shown to recruit PMNs and enhance their activation specifically in the tumor bed, resulting in significant anticancer effects.
