regulatory T cells

[Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America] The authors found that multiclonal Tregs presented in tumor tissues predominantly expressed the chemokine receptor CCR8.

[Developmental Cell] Researchers observed unexpectedly high levels of hepatocyte heterogeneity in the developing liver and the progressive construction of the zonated metabolic functions from pericentral to periportal hepatocytes, which was orchestrated with the development of sinusoid endothelial, stellate, and Kupffer cells.

[Circulation] Investigators utilized mouse models of reperfused myocardial infarction, angiotensin II and phenylephrine infusion, and diphtheria toxin cardiomyocyte ablation to investigate C-C chemokine ligand 17.

[Journal of Clinical Investigation] Investigators observed that anti–PD-1 therapy depends on IL-2 signaling, which raised the possibility that a lack of IL-2 limited anti–PD-1–induced effector T cell expansion.

[Scientific Reports] Using in silico and in vitro techniques, investigators demonstrated heterogeneous expression of CD97, a leukocyte adhesion marker, in human glioblastoma.

[Cancer Cell] Researchers proposed that lactic acid in the highly glycolytic tumor microenvironment (TME) was an active checkpoint for the function of regulatory T cells in the TME via upregulation of PD-1 expression.
