Natural selection of tumor variants in the generation of “tumor escape” phenotypes
Open accessAbstract
The idea that tumors must "escape" from immune recognition contains the implicit assumption that tumors can be destroyed by immune responses either spontaneously or as the result of immunotherapeutic intervention. Simply put, there is no need for tumor escape without immunological pressure. Here, we review evidence supporting the immune escape hypothesis and critically explore the mechanisms that may allow such escape to occur. We discuss the idea that the central engine for generating immunoresistant tumor cell variants is the genomic instability and dysregulation that is characteristic of the transformed genome. "Natural selection" of heterogeneous tumor cells results in the survival and proliferation of variants that happen to possess genetic and epigenetic traits that facilitate their growth and immune evasion. Tumor escape variants are likely to emerge after treatment with increasingly effective immunotherapies.

Fas/Fas ligand interplay is involved in immune evasion, with neoplasms showing resistance to Fas-mediated cytotoxicity and FasL expression potentially resulting in immune effector cell apoptosis.
“Additionally, evidence supports the involvement of Fas/Fas Ligand (FasL) interplay in immune evasion [77], with neoplasms showing resistance to Fas-mediated cytotoxicity and FasL expression potentially resulting in immune effector cells apoptosis [76,78].”

Down-regulation of the HLA class I antigen in colorectal cancer enables neoplastic cells to evade cytotoxic T cell lymphocyte-mediated lysis.
“The down-regulation of the HLA class I antigen in CRC, for instance, enables neoplastic cells to evade cytotoxic T cell lymphocyte (CTL) mediated lysis by bypassing the MHC-restricted, antigen-specific triggering of the T-cell receptor (TCR) complex [76].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
