    Abstract

    Several pattern recognition receptors including toll-like receptors and purinergic receptors are implicated in the anticancer immune response elicited by anthracyclines or oxaliplatin. Recently, formyl peptide receptor-1 (FPR1) has been involved in this response as well. FPR1 is required for the correct positioning of dendritic cells (DC) close to dying cancer cells. A genetic defect in FPR1 abrogates cross-presentation of tumor antigens by DC, thereby compromising therapy-elicited immunosurveillance.
