Imunoterapie metastazujícího pankreatického adenokarcinomu řešená na dvounádorovém modelu
SKALIČKOVÁ, Markéta
This master's thesis studies the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy based on TLR agonists and ligands stimulating phagocytosis, abbreviated as MBTA therapy, using a mouse model of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The main goals are: (1) to enhance the efficacy of MBTA in the case of large tumors, (2) to enhance the efficacy of MBTA using a bilateral pancreatic adenocarcinoma mouse model, (3) to examine the potential of lipoteichoic acid to opsonize cancer cells and stimulate phagocytic cells.

Regulační T lymfocyty a nádorová onemocnění
SKALIČKOVÁ, Markéta
The main aim of this thesis was to study the role of regulatory T cells in cancer. Their presence, importance, and mechanism of their action were studied as well. The practical part was focused on reduction of bigger tumors and suppressing regulatory T-cell effects. The combination of TLR agonists, agonistic CD40 antibody and anti-CTLA-4 was studied on a mouse model of pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Nádorová imunoterapie a možnosti zesílení jejího účinku
KVARDOVÁ, Karolína
The aim of this thesis was to study cancer immunotherapy based on combination of TLR7 signalling and activation of phagocytosis of cancer cells. This thesis was focused on the possibility of enhancing its effect. The possibilities of removing immunosuppressive barriers (esp. MDSCs and adenosine) were studied, using a combination with chemotherapy or enzyme - adenosine deaminase and purine nucleoside phosphorylase. The effect of enzymes was studied in both in vivo and in vitro experiments. As another way of optimizing the therapy used so far, the modulation of the therapeutic mixture using lower molecular weight substances was tried.
