Multimodal Mapping of the Tumor and Peripheral Blood Immune Landscape in Human Pancreatic Cancer

Using a combination of CyTOF, single-cell RNA sequencing and multiplex immunohistochemistry on patient tumors, matched blood and non-malignant samples, scientists uncovered a complex network of immune-suppressive cellular interactions.

Early Emergence of T Central Memory Precursors Programs Clonal Dominance During Chronic Viral Infection

By mapping the long-term development of CD8+ T cell families derived from single naive precursors, scientists found that fate decisions made during the acute phase of murine cytomegalovirus infection could alter the level of memory inflation by more than 1,000-fold.

Detecting Tumor Antigen-Specific T Cells via Interaction-Dependent Fucosyl-Biotinylation

Through an interaction-dependent labeling approach, intratumoral TSA-reactive CD4 +, CD8 + T cells, and TSA-suppressive CD4 + T cells could be detected and separated from bystander T cells based on their cell-surface enzymatic fucosyl-biotinylation.

Unbiased Screens Show CD8+ T Cells of COVID-19 Patients Recognize Shared Epitopes in SARS-CoV-2, Most of which Are Not Located in the Spike Protein

Scientists used an unbiased, genome-wide screening technology to determine the precise peptide sequences in SARS-CoV-2 that are recognized by the memory CD8+ T cells of COVID-19 patients.

TGF-β Suppresses Type 2 Immunity to Cancer

The authors showed that depletion of transforming growth factor-β receptor 2 (TGFβR2) in CD4+ T cells, but not CD8+ T cells, halts cancer progression as a result of tissue healing and remodeling of the blood vasculature, causing cancer cell hypoxia and death in distant avascular regions.

Multiscale Fluorescent Tracking of Immune Cells in the Liver with a Highly Biocompatible Far-Red Emitting Polymer Probe

A newly-designed water-soluble far-red emitting polymer probe, 19K-6H, with a large Stokes shift, was thus evaluated for the tracking of primary immune CD8 T cells. 19K-6H-labelled primary CD8 T cells were injected to mice in a classical model of immune mediated hepatitis.

Stroma-Derived ANGPTL2 Establishes an Anti-Tumor Microenvironment during Intestinal Tumorigenesis

ANGPTL2 secreted from intestinal subepithelial myofibroblasts drove generation of Ly6Chigh immunostimulatory macrophages via NF-κB signaling to promote CD4+ Th1 cell responses that established an anti-tumor microenvironment during injury-induced intestinal tumorigenesis
