Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are antigen-specific killer cells equipped to identify and eliminate host that have been altered through infection or transformation. Both chimeric antigen-receptor (CAR) cell therapies immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) based on successful elimination of tumor by cytotoxic effectors. In this opinion article, we outline cell-intrinsic mechanisms which defend against CTLs, highlighting pathways confer resistance proposing opportunities for combination therapies. We discuss how exogenous killing entities [e.g., supramolecular attack particles (SMAPs)] offer a novel strategy circumvent cellular mechanisms. Our article highlights the importance identifying, quantifying, targeting defense at interface between CTLs as critical consideration in development immunotherapy approaches.

To date, no immunotherapy approaches have managed to fully overcome T-cell exhaustion, which remains a mandatory fate for chronically activated effector cells and major therapeutic challenge. Understanding how reprogram CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes away from exhausted states an elusive goal. Our work provides evidence that orthogonal gene engineering of T secrete interleukin (IL)-2 variant binding the IL-2Rβγ receptor alarmin IL-33 reprogrammed adoptively transferred acquire novel, synthetic state, deviated canonical exhaustion displayed superior functions.

Abstract T cell dysfunction‐induced tumor immune escape is particularly severe in glioblastoma (GBM), and significantly affects the efficacy of immunotherapy. It crucial to innovatively reverse dysfunction for improving GBM Herein, remarkably reversed immunotherapy boosted by repurposing U. S. Food Drug Administration‐approved antidepressant paroxetine (PX) with biomimetic nanoparticles (CS‐J@CM/6 NPs). The PX successfully applied abrogate sequestration bone marrow GBM‐bearing mice increase their infiltration tumor. NPs are composed ultrasmall Cu 2− x Se NPs, JQ1, membrane modified CD6, efficiently delivered into through specific interactions between CD6 activated leukocyte adhesion molecule. They ameliorate double roles loaded which simultaneously decreases expression PD‐1 TIM‐3 on cells, PD‐L1 cells. NP also induces immunogenic death cells activate response. synergistic CS‐J@CM/6 notably enhance survival mice. This work provides new insights “old drugs” advanced NPs.

Abstract The B cell response in the germinal centre (GC) reaction requires a unique bioenergetic supply. Although mitochondria are remodelled upon antigen-mediated receptor stimulation, mitochondrial function cells is still poorly understood. To gain better understanding of role function, here we generate mice with cell-specific deficiency Tfam, transcription factor necessary for biogenesis. Tfam conditional knock-out (KO) display blockage GC and bias differentiation towards memory aged-related cells, hallmarks an aged immune response. Unexpectedly, blocked KO not caused by defects supply but associated defect remodelling lysosomal compartment cells. Our results may thus describe lysosome regulation downstream antigen presentation during reaction, dysruption which manifested as

The reduction of cellular PD-L1 abundance through lysosomal degradation is recognized as essential for effective and sustained targeting PD-L1-dependent immune evasion in cancer. While Hsc70 can interact with to promote its degradation, the overexpression CMTM6 competitively inhibits this interaction, leading blockade degradation. To overcome issue, a meso chimeric peptide PEPPDL1 was designed specifically bind PD-1 binding domain instead Hsc70/CMTM6 domain, while also facilitate dragging into Hsc70-mediated chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA), thereby achieving In order enable internalization tumor cells, supramolecular engineering techniques were employed terminal modification involving sulfydryl monovalent gold ion (Au(I)), both facilitating self-assembly modified nanospheres termed CTAC-PDL1 driven by aurophilic interaction.

Abstract Clinical updates suggest conserving metastatic sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) of breast cancer (BC) patients during surgery; however, the immunoadjuvant potential this strategy is unknown. Here we leverage an immune-fueling flex-patch to animate SLNs with personalized antitumor immunity. The implanted on postoperative wound and spatiotemporally releases immunotherapeutic anti-PD-1 antibodies (aPD-1) adjuvants (magnesium iron-layered double hydroxide, LDH) into SLN. Genes associated citric acid cycle oxidative phosphorylation are enriched in activated CD8 + T cells (CTLs) from SLNs. Delivered aPD-1 LDH confer CTLs upregulated glycolytic activity, promoting CTL activation cytotoxic killing via metal cation-mediated shaping. Ultimately, patch-driven could long-termly maintain tumor antigen-specific memory, protecting against high-incidence BC recurrence female mice. This study indicates a clinical value SLN therapy.

Mitochondria are essential organelles in eukaryotic cells that provide critical support for energetic and metabolic homeostasis. Although the elimination of pathogenic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations somatic has been observed, mechanisms to maintain proper functions despite their mtDNA mutation load poorly understood. In this study, we analyzed more than 30,000 single human peripheral bone marrow mononuclear cells. We observed a significant overrepresentation homoplasmic B, T, natural killer (NK) lymphocytes. Intriguingly, overall mutational burden was lower hematopoietic progenitors myeloid This characteristic landscape indicates genetic bottleneck during lymphoid development, as confirmed with single-cell datasets from multiple platforms individuals. further demonstrated replication lags behind cell proliferation both pro-B pre-B progenitor cells, thus likely causing by diluting copies per cell.
