The patient is a 53 year old woman with metastatic melanoma to multiple subcutaneous sites and retroperitoneum. She was treated with tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) transduced with the gene for tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Pretreatment biopsy shows multiple live melanoma cells with little lymphoid infiltrate. Following treatment with TNF gene modified TILs plus interleukin-2, a biopsy of another lesion showed massive coagulative necrosis of the tumor with no viable tumor seen. This is a typical picture seen in experimental animals treated with tumor necrosis factor. This patient has had a substantial objective response that is currently ongoing at nine months following initiation of treatment. Credit: Unknown photographer/artist.

Six-step sequence of the death of a cancer cell. A cancer cell has migrated through the holes of a matrix coated membrane from the top to the bottom, simulating natural migration of a invading cancer cell between, and sometimes through, the vascular endothelium. Notice the spikes or pseudopodia that are characteristic of an invading cancer cell (1). A buffy coat containing red blood cells, lymphocytes and macrophages is added to the bottom of the membrane. A group of macrophages identify the cancer cell as foreign matter and start to stick to the cancer cell, which still has its spikes (2). Macrophages begin to fuse with, and inject its toxins into, the cancer cell. The cell starts rounding up and loses its spikes (3). As the macrophage cell becomes smooth (4). The cancer cell appears lumpy in the last stage before it dies. These lumps are actually the macrophages fused within the cancer cell (5). The cancer cell then loses its morphology, shrinks up and dies (6). Photo magnification: 1: x12,000; 2: x4,000; 3: x8,000; 4: x26,000; 5: x56,000; 6: x14,000. Credit: Susan Arnold (photographer).

This is a histological slide of the human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) previously known as HBLV, a type of herpesvirus, was discovered in October, 1986. Noninfected normal lymphocytes serve as a control and produce a negative reaction in this immunofluorescence assay. This test verifies that the lymphocytes have been infected by the virus.
