The Impact of the Cellular Environment and Aging on Modeling Alzheimer’s Disease in 3D Cell Culture Models
Mechanistic hypotheses is presented to address the impact of the ECM properties and their changes with aging on Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD-related dementias.
[Leukemia] Ex vivo treatment of cells from acute myeloid leukemia (AML) mice and AML patients with bromodomain and extra-terminal domain (BET) inhibitors reversed CD8+ T cell exhaustion by restoring proliferative capacity and expansion of the more functional precursor-exhausted T cells.
[Nature Communications] The authors reported that specific deletion of IFNγR in CD8 T cells promoted tumor control in a mouse model of melanoma, and provide evidence of a negative feedback loop whereby IFNγ depletes stem-like T cells to restrict anti-tumor immunity.
[Nature Immunology] Selectively targeting YTHDF2 in tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) using a Toll-like receptor 9 agonist-conjugated small interfering RNA reprogrammed TAMs toward an antitumoral phenotype, restrained tumor growth, and enhanced the efficacy of PD-L1 antibody therapy.
