Immune Regulation News is an online resource covering research into the regulation, suppression, and modulation of the immune system.

Epigenetic Regulators of Clonal Hematopoiesis Control CD8 T Cell Stemness During Immunotherapy

[Science] The authors undertook a reverse-translation approach to investigate the molecular mechanisms regulating the durability of T cell responsiveness to checkpoint blockade immunotherapy.

DNA-Sensing Pathways in Health, Autoinflammatory, and Autoimmune Diseases

[Nature Immunology] Investigators summarize the fundamentals of DNA-sensing pathways and the intricate regulatory networks that keep these pathways in check.

Mestag Therapeutics Announces License and Research Collaboration with MSD to Identify Novel Targets for Inflammatory Diseases

[Mestag Therapeutics] Mestag Therapeutics announced that it has entered into a license and collaboration agreement with MSD to identify novel targets for the development of therapies against inflammatory diseases.

Complement Factor H Is an ICOS Ligand Modulating Tregs in the Glioma Microenvironment

[Cancer Immunology Research] The authors investigated the impact of complement factor H (FH) on Tregs within the glioma microenvironment and found that FH is an ICOS ligand.

The Extension of Mammalian Pregnancy Required Taming Inflammation: Independent Evolution of Extended Placentation in the Tammar Wallaby

[Proceedings of The National Academy of Sciences of The United States of America] By comparing gene expression changes at attachment in three marsupial species, the tammar wallaby, opossum, and fat-tailed dunnart, researchers showed that inflammatory attachment was an ancestral feature of marsupial implantation.

Transformable Gel-to-Nanovaccine Enhances Cancer Immunotherapy via Metronomic-Like Immunomodulation and Collagen-Mediated Paracortex Delivery

[Advanced Materials] By recapitulating the dynamic processes of acute infection, a bioadhesive immune niche domain was developed that facilitated the delivery of timely-activating conjugated nanovaccine (t-CNV) in a metronomic-like manner and increased the accumulation and retention of TANNylated t-CNV in lymph node.

Novel Photo-STING Agonists Delivered by Erythrocyte Efferocytosis-Mimicking Pattern to Repolarize Tumor-Associated Macrophages for Boosting Anticancer Immunotherapy

[Advanced Materials] Scientists presented a newly synthesized and screened manganese porphyrins for Mn2+ transport, referred to as photo-STING agonists, and further encapsulate them into core-shell nanoparticles named Rm@PP-GA with dual specificity for tumor tissue and tumor-associated macrophages.

Optimization of the Irf8 +32-Kb Enhancer Disrupts Dendritic Cell Lineage Segregation

[Nature Immunology] Researchers revealed that the Irf8 +32-kb enhancer, responsible for interferon regulatory factor 8 (IRF8) autoactivation, was naturally suboptimized with low-affinity IRF8 binding sites.

Two-Dimensional Coordination Risedronate-Manganese Nanobelts as Adjuvant for Cancer Radiotherapy and Immunotherapy

[Nature Communications] Researchers developed two-dimensional risedronate-manganese nanobelts (RMn-NBs) as an adjuvant for radiation therapy. RMn-NBs exhibited good T2 magnetic resonance imaging performance and enhanced Fenton-like catalytic activity, which induced immunogenic cell death.

Alternative Splicing of PBRM1 Mediates Resistance to PD-1 Blockade Therapy in Renal Cancer

[EMBO Journal] Investigators performed a comprehensive alternative pre-mRNA splicing analysis in cancer driver gene transcripts across fifteen cancer types and found global alterations in inclusion rates of the polybromo-associated BAF SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex subunit Polybromo 1 (PBRM1) exon 27 in most types of cancer tissues compared with those in normal tissues.

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Facilitate the Development and Evaluation of Cancer Vaccines

Investigators describe the specific contributions of iPSCs to vaccine development, summarize their diverse developmental trajectories, and discuss the obstacles to their application and potential...

For over a decade, Immune Regulation News has been keeping the scientific community up-to-date with the latest research and reviews related to immune regulation. Key research areas covered include the roles of regulatory T cells (Treg cells) in autoimmunity and self-reactivity, as well as immune response to disease, transplantation and cancer. We also provide vital updates on the latest jobs and upcoming events in the field of immunology.
