Covid-19 Vaccines Enhance the Effectiveness of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Fighting Cancer
Steven J. Madore, PhD (ICBR Associate Director for Science, UFHCI Associate Director for Shared Resources)
Tumor cells fend off the attacks of immune system T-cells by expressing proteins like PD-L1 on their cell surface. The PD-L1 on the surface of the tumor cell binds to a T-cell surface receptor protein called PD-1 and silences the killing action of the T-cells. Blocking the binding of PD-L1 to PD...

UF Investigators Identify Mechanism of Drug Resistance in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Steven J Madore, PhD (ICBR Associate Director for Science)
Summarized from J. Clin. Inv. 2025;135(6); e185149
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Despite a combination of surgery and chemotherapy, survival rate remains low due to cancer cell metastasis and drug resistance. Mutations in the oncogene KRAS are frequently found in human cancers, including up to ...
