| Investigators performed single-cell transcriptome sequencing of 105 pretreatment and post-treatment peripheral blood mononuclear cell samples, and infusion products collected from 32 individuals with large B cell lymphoma treated with either of two CD19 CAR-T products: axicabtagene ciloleucel or tisagenlecleucel.

| Single-cell proteomic profiling of circulating CAR T cells in 32 patients treated with CD19-CAR identified that CD4+Helios+ CAR T cells on day seven after infusion were associated with progressive disease and less severe neurotoxicity. [Nature Medicine] |

|
|
| The authors conducted a clinical trial in stable liver recipients two to six years post-transplant to determine the capacity of low dose interleukin-2 to suppress allospecific immune responses and allow for the complete discontinuation of maintenance immunosuppression. [Journal of Hepatology] |

|
| A methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mPEG)-masked CD44×PD-L1/CD3 trispecific T cell nanoengager loaded with the STING agonist c-di-AMP for the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) was rationally designed. [Advanced Science] |

|
| Scientists used single-cell RNA sequencing with both cross-sectional and longitudinal samples to assess how human CD8+ T cell heterogeneity and transcriptomes changed over nine decades of life. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Researchers showed neutrophils undergoing NETosis and confirm expression markers of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in vaccine-induced immune thrombotic thrombocytopenia patients. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Investigators observed lower FcRγ protein expression in NK cell subsets from lung transplant patients during rapamycin treatment, suggesting a link with reduced mTOR activity. [Journal of Experimental Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Scientists demonstrated that recipient sphingosine kinase 1 (Sphk1), but not Sphk2, was required for optimal sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1)-dependent donor T cell allogeneic responses by secreting S1P. [Cellular & Molecular Immunology] |

|
|
| Investigators used a glycan microarray with over 800 different components to screen a panel of 516 human monoclonal antibodies that had been randomly cloned from different B cell subsets originating from healthy human subjects. [Journal of Biological Chemistry] |
|
|
|
| Researchers evaluated a novel telomerase-targeting therapeutic cancer vaccine, UV1, in combination with ipilimumab, in patients with metastatic melanoma. [Journal of Translational Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Scientists developed an autologous humanized mouse cancer model by engrafting NSG mice with patient-derived xenografts and infused matched peripheral blood mononuclear cells. [PLoS One] |
|
|
|
| Researchers identified dysregulated transcriptional program in B cells that disrupted differentiation of naive B cells into anti-tumor plasma cells. [Cell Reports Medicine] |
|
|
|
|
| Scientists discuss the current state of knowledge about what is known about how pathways bifurcate to activate NF-κB and IRF family members. [Biochemical Pharmacology] |
|
|
|
| The authors discuss molecular mechanisms underlying immune γδ T cell activity in liver disease, including immune liver injury, viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma, and review γδ T cell-based clinical immunotherapeutic approaches. [Journal of Leukocyte Biology] |

| Fresh Tracks Therapeutics, Inc. announced that it has initiated the multiple ascending dose portion of the ongoing Phase I clinical trial in Canada evaluating FRTX-02, the company’s lead drug candidate, in healthy adult subjects. [Fresh Tracks Therapeutics, Inc. (Globe Newswire, Inc.)] |

|
|
| Marker Therapeutics, Inc. announced that the company has been awarded a $2 million grant from the US FDA Orphan Products Grants program to support its Phase II ARTEMIS trial of its lead multi-tumor-associated antigen T cell product candidate, MT-401, in patients with post-transplant acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
