Abstract Adoptive transfer of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified natural killer (NK) cells represents a transformative approach that has significantly advanced clinical outcomes in patients with malignant hematological conditions. However, the efficacy CAR-NK treating solid tumors is limited by their exhaustion, impaired infiltration and poor persistence immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). As NK cell functional states are associated IL-2 cascade, we engineered mesothelin-specific secrete neoleukin-2/15 (Neo-2/15), an IL-2Rβγ agonist, to resist polarization within TME. The adoptively transferred Neo-2/15-armored exhibited enhanced cytotoxicity, less exhaustion longer TME, thereby having superior antitumor activity against pancreatic cancer ovarian cancer. Mechanistically, Neo-2/15 provided sustained downstream signaling, which promotes expression c-Myc nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1) cells. This upregulation was crucial for maintaining mitochondrial adaptability metabolic resilience, ultimately leading increased cytotoxicity pronounced resistance TME necessitated NRF1, essential augmentative effects elicited Neo-2/15. Overexpression NRF1 bolsters both vitro vivo, ATP production. Collectively, Neo-2/15-expressing exerts exhaustion-resistance survival tumors.

Complement hyperactivation and thrombotic microangiopathy are closely associated with severe COVID-19. Endothelial dysfunction is a key mechanism underlying microangiopathy. To address the relationship between endothelial injury, complement activation of COVID-19, we wonder whether, if so, what how SARS-CoV-2 factors make cells (ECs) sensitive to complement-mediated cytotoxicity. We revealed that multiple proteins enhanced cytotoxicity ECs via inhibiting membrane regulatory (CRPs) enhancing deposition recognizing component FCN1. By screening CRISPR/Cas9-gRNA libraries, identified ADAMTS9, SYAP1 HIGD1A as intrinsic regulators CD59 on were inhibited by M, NSP16 ORF9b proteins.
