Opioids and immune checkpoint inhibitors differentially regulate a common immune network in triple-negative breast cancer
14 Sept 2023
Abstract excerpt
Background: Opioids are the primary analgesics for cancer pain. Recent clinical evidence suggests opioids may counteract the effect of immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) immunotherapy, but the mechanism for this interaction is unknown. The following experiments study how opioids and immunotherapy modulate a common RNA expression pathway in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), a cancer subtype in which...
