PD-1 Preferentially Inhibits the Activation of Low-Affinity T Cells

[Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America] Scientists investigated whether and how factors that modulate T cell responsiveness to antigenic stimuli influence PD-1 function.

Alveolar Macrophages Rely on GM-CSF from Alveolar Epithelial Type 2 Cells before and after Birth

[Journal of Experimental Medicine] Investigators developed new transgenic mice to profile pulmonary GM-CSF expression, which they detected in both immune cells, including group 2 innate lymphoid cells and γδ T cells, as well as AT2s.

Anticancer Effect of Myristicin on Hepatic Carcinoma and Related Molecular Mechanism

[Pharmaceutical Biology] Human hepatic carcinoma cell lines were treated with different concentrations of myristicin for 24, 48 and 72 hours. Then tetrazolium assay, flow cytometer analysis and transwell assay were performed to determine cell proliferation, apoptosis and migration/invasion, respectively.

Accelerating Vein-to-Vein Cell Therapy Workflows with New Bioanalytical Strategies

[Current Opinion in Biotechnology] Scientists offer a survey of recent biotechnological advances supporting enhanced and expedited biomanufacturing workflows for autologous and allogeneic cell therapies, ranging from novel genetic engineering techniques and cell sorting platforms to stem cells and tumor organoid models.

Purinergic Receptor P2Y6 Is a Negative Regulator of NK Cell Maturation and Function

[Journal of Immunology] The authors discovered that the expression of P2Y6 was decreased upon the activation of the NK cells. In the P2Y6-deficient mice, scientists found that the deficiency of P2Y6 promoted the development of the NK precursor cells into immature NK and mature NK cells.

IL-33 Activates mTORC1 and Modulates Glycolytic Metabolism in CD8+ T Cells

[Immunology] The authors found increased mouse IL-33 expression in CD8+ T cells following cell activation via anti-CD3/CD28 stimulation in vitro or Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection in vivo.
