In the last twelve years, solid evidence showed that the enzyme Indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase-1 (IDO) is an important mediator of immune tolerance. While the similarities between IDO regulatory mechanisms and the molecular signature associated with cervical cancer and other tumors induced by human papillomavirus (HPV), the active role of IDO in these tumors has not been studied. Here, we wi…
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is the etiologic agent of a variety of diseases, such as benign epithelial lesions, genital warts, laryngeal papillomas, and other diseases that are difficult to manage. In recent years, the role of HPV in triggering different types of tumors has been highlighted. It is known that HPV is responsible for more than 99% of cervical tumors, most of the anal tumors a…
Faithful to its inherent aggressive, melanomas are remarkably resistant to all forms of cancer therapies. The combination of chemotherapy with biomolecules such as IL-2 and IFN-alpha does not appear to be an effective management. However, clinical trials are underway to evaluate new therapeutic strategies. In this context, melatonin (MLT) has been shown to be an excellent adjunct to conve…
