Carcinoma cells that undergo an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and display a predominantly mesenchymal phenotype (hereafter EMT tumor cells) are associated with immune exclusion and immune deviation in the tumor microenvironment (TME). A large body of evidence has shown that EMT tumor cells and immune cells can reciprocally influence each other, with EMT cells promoting immune exclusion and deviation and immune cells promoting, under certain circumstances, the induction of EMT in tumor cells. This cross-talk between EMT tumor cells and immune cells can occur both between EMT tumor cells and cells of either the native or adaptive immune system. In this article, we review this evidence and the functional consequences of it. We also discuss some recent evidence showing that tumor cells and cells of the immune system respond to similar stimuli, activate the expression of partially overlapping gene sets, and acquire, at least in part, identical functionalities such as migration and invasion. The possible significance of these symmetrical changes in the cross-talk between EMT tumor cells and immune cells is addressed. Eventually, we also discuss possible therapeutic opportunities that may derive from disrupting this cross-talk.

The tumor-promoting effects of the adaptive immune system: a cause of hyperprogressive disease in cancer?

Fabrizio Marcucci, Cristiano Rumio

Summary: Adaptive antitumor immune responses can sometimes promote tumor growth by causing expansion, resistance, proliferation, etc. Understanding these immune responses may help predict and counteract hyperprogressive diseases, suggesting the need for predictive biomarkers and therapeutic interventions.

Tumor Cell Glycolysis-At the Crossroad of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and Autophagy

Fabrizio Marcucci, Cristiano Rumio

Summary: There is ample evidence that glycolysis can induce epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and autophagy in tumor cells. Furthermore, upregulation of glycolysis can result in a mixed mesenchymal/autophagic phenotype in tumor cells.

On the Role of Glycolysis in Early Tumorigenesis-Permissive and Executioner Effects

Fabrizio Marcucci, Cristiano Rumio

Summary: Reprogramming of energy production from mitochondrial respiration to glycolysis is a characteristic of cancer. Glycolysis can be upregulated in the early stages of tumorigenesis, as many oncoproteins involved in tumor initiation and progression promote glycolysis. In addition, recent evidence suggests that upregulated glycolysis itself may contribute to tumorigenesis through various mechanisms. This article provides a summary of the role of upregulated glycolysis in tumor initiation and proposes a mechanistic model to explain its involvement.
