Popis: Melanoma often exploits Treg to avoid immune attack. Treg is a heterogeneous population with respect to immunosuppressive capability. Lymphocytes are particularly rich in FKBP51 (encoded by FKBP5 gene), known as the receptor for FK506. Melanoma aberrantly expresses this protein, which sustains resistance and invasion. Melanoma/immune cell interaction, through PD-L1/PD1, bidirectionally generates FKBP5 splicing inducing a lower molecular weight form termed FKBP51s. In 64 advanced melanoma patient PBMCs, we found that FKBP51s marked a Treg subset that correlated to anti-CTLA4 response. More precisely, a Treg FKBP51s+ count 1.2 and 0.04 and Citation Format: Teresa Troiani, Simona Romano, Paolo D'Arrigo, Anna Rea, Martina Tufano, Emilio F.
