Nuclear Receptors in Cancer Inflammation and Immunity.

Nuclear Receptors in Cancer Inflammation and Immunity. Trends Immunol. 2020 Jan 22;: Authors: Zhao L, Hu H, Gustafsson JÅ, Zhou S Abstract Members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily orchestrate cellular processes that can impact on numerous cancer hallmarks. NR activity plays important roles in the tumor microenvironment by controlling inflammation and immune responses. We summarize recent insights into the diverse mechanisms by which NR activity can control tumor inflammation, the roles of different NRs in modulating tumor immunity, and the biological features of immune cells that express specific NRs in the context of cancer. NR-dependent alterations in tumor inflammation and immunity may be amenable to pharmacological manipulation and offer new clues regarding the development of novel cancer therapeutic regimens.
