|
| Scientists identified Mi-2β as a key melanoma-intrinsic effector regulating the adaptive anti-tumor immune response. Studies in genetically engineered mouse melanoma models indicated that loss of Mi-2β rescued the immune response to immunotherapy in vivo. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Researchers reported findings from preclinical studies characterizing pharmacology, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics, and safety profile of RO7502175, an afucosylated antibody designed to eliminate C–C motif chemokine receptor 8 (CCR8)+ Treg cells in the tumor microenvironment. [British Journal Of Pharmacology] |
|
|
|
| Using data from single-cell RNA sequencing and flow cytometry, scientists initially examined the expression of FCRL3, finding it to be elevated and positively associated with TIGIT expression in the regulatory T cells of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. [European Journal Of Immunology] |
|
|
|
| Investigators discovered an anti-human IL-2 antibody and engineered a covalently-linked single-agent fusion of human IL-2 and its antibody that selectively expanded Treg cells and exhibited superior disease control activity in animal models of ulcerative colitis and systemic lupus erythematosus. [Communications Biology] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated the expression and regulation of human leukocyte antigen-II in human glioblastoma samples and the correlation with LAG-3+CD4+ T cell infiltration. [Cancer Science] |
|
|
|
| Researchers explored the expression and functional significance of NDUFAF6 in breast cancer using various databases and experimental models. [Cancer Cell International] |
|
|
|
| Investigators constructed a novel Tregs-associated biomarker for the prediction of tumor immune microenvironment, clinical outcomes, and individualized treatment in hepatocellular carcinoma. [Aging] |
|
|
|
| Scientists looked into the effect of Dioscin on the functions of CD4+ CD25+ Tregs in the aplastic anemia mouse model and explored its underlying mechanism. [Hematology] |
|
|
|
|
| The authors review emerging evidence demonstrating unexpected roles for T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing protein 3 (TIM-3) as a key regulator of myeloid cell function. [Science Immunology] |
