|
| By mapping 55 neoantigen-specific T cell receptor clonotypes from 10 metastatic human tumors to their single-cell transcriptomes, investigators identified signatures of CD8+ and CD4+ neoantigen-reactive tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. [Science] |
|
|
|
| Researchers found that distant metastases were more immune inert with increased M2 macrophages compared to their matched primary tumors. [Science Translational Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Investigators studied the live lung longitudinally and follow the fate of individual disseminated tumor cells that spontaneously disseminated from orthotopic breast tumors. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Using single-cell sequencing, scientists showed that tumor-induced lymphocytes include skewed T cell clonotypes, which were characterized by exhaustion or nonexhaustion signatures. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated the effect of different initial rituximab (RTX) regimens on B cell depletion. This single-center retrospective analysis included children with autoimmune neurological diseases who received RTX. [Multiple Sclerosis Journal] |
|
|
|
| Scientists evaluated the effects of the specialized pro-resolving mediators lipids, lipoxin A4 and lipoxin B4, on neutrophils isolated from patients with atherosclerosis compared with healthy controls. [FASEB Journal] |
|
|
|
| The authors demonstrated abnormalities of neutrophil function, namely neutrophil extracellular trap formation in splenectomised and non-splenectomised β-thalassaemia/HbE patients who had iron overload. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| Researchers showed that myeloid cells from cord blood could be activated to express T cell costimulatory markers, and also to produced Th1 promoting cytokines. [Journal of Leukocyte Biology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the effects of sulfated deoxycholic acid, sulfated lithocholic acid, and their unsulfated forms on intestinal barrier function and immune response.. [Heliyon] |
|
|
|
|
| Investigators describe the function of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor in different immune cells, and connect with their roles in cancer immunology. [Trends in Immunology] |

| Orange Grove Bio and SV Investment announced the establishment of a new partnership through which the companies will collaborate on jointly sourcing and developing novel therapeutics in the United States and Korea. [Orange Grove Bio (Globe Newswire, Inc.)] |

| Actuate Therapeutics, Inc. announced the opening of a randomized study of elraglusib plus FOLFIRINOX alone or with Losartan for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer in the first-line setting. [Actuate Therapeutics, Inc. (Globe Newswire, Inc.)] |
