Tumor Suppressor microRNAs Contribute to the Regulation of PD-L1 Expression in Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma
…from samples from patients undergoing an operation (pleurectomy with or without decortication). MicroRNA expression was analyzed by reverse-transcriptase quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Regulation of PD-L1 expression in cell lines was assessed after transfection with…

Response to "An innovative mesothelioma treatment based on mir-16 mimic loaded EGFR targeted minicells (TargomiRs)"
…minicells by tumours. They agreed that pre- and post-treatment biopsies will be key. They could not exclude immune reactions to the minicells' LPS-containing surface as an explanation for anti-tumour activity. However, they noted…
