Schlafen 11 Triggers Innate Immune Responses

New Findings on the Detection of Single-Stranded DNA by the Human Immune System: The Role of Schlafen 11 in Innate Immune Response Research Background In the innate immune system, pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) play a crucial role. They initiate an immune response by recognizing pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associ...

The Tumor-Intrinsic Role of the m6A Reader YTHDF2 in Regulating Immune Evasion

Report: Intrinsic Role of m6A Reader Protein YTHDF2 in Regulating Tumor Immune Evasion Background Introduction In recent years, immunotherapy has become a hotspot in the field of tumor treatment, attracting attention for its ability to break through immune suppression barriers or enhance existing anti-tumor immunity. However, despite some successes...

Intratumoral Antigen Signaling Traps CD8+ T Cells to Confine Exhaustion to the Tumor Site

Tumor Immunology Research: The Exhausted State of CD8+ T Cells in Tumors In recent years, immunotherapy has achieved significant progress in the field of tumor treatment. However, tracking the behavior of lymphocytes following antigen signals remains challenging. This study aims to address this issue by developing Antigen Receptor Signaling Reporte...

Circulating KLRG1+ Long-Lived Effector Memory T Cells Retain the Flexibility to Become Tissue Resident

Tissue-Resident Capacity of Long-Term Surviving KLRG1+ Effector Memory T Cells Background Memory CD8 T cells play a crucial role in the body’s defense against pathogen reinfection. Memory T cells are a heterogeneous group of cells present in various tissues throughout the body, providing essential surveillance and rapid response functions. Memory T...

Functional Correlation between Myeloid Cells and Membrane Abundance

In the past few decades, with the rapid development of science and technology, human understanding of the immune system has continuously deepened. Among all immune cells, professional phagocytes (such as neutrophils and macrophages) play a crucial role in clearing apoptotic cells, cell debris, and invading pathogens. These cells uptake and engulf f...

Overexpression of MALAT1 Drives Metastasis Through Inflammatory Reprogramming of the Tumor Microenvironment

Cancer Immunology Research: Overexpression of MALAT1 Drives Lung Adenocarcinoma Metastasis Through Inflammatory Reprogramming Background Introduction MALAT1 (Metastasis-associated Lung Adenocarcinoma Transcript 1) is a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) closely linked to tumor progression and metastasis in several cancers, including lung adenocarcinoma (L...

A Lactate-SREBP2 Signaling Axis Drives Tolerogenic Dendritic Cell Maturation and Promotes Cancer Progression

Cancer Immunology Lactate-SREBP2 Signaling Axis-Driven Tolerogenic Dendritic Cell Maturation and Its Role in Promoting Cancer Progression Background In cancer, conventional dendritic cells (DCs) are key mediators of anti-tumor immunity. However, cancer has evolved mechanisms that render DCs ineffective in the tumor microenvironment (TME), and these...

Gfi1b Specifies Developmental Potential of Innate Lymphoid Cell Progenitors in the Lungs

Background Introduction In respiratory diseases, the lung is a sensitive organ exposed to the external environment, making it susceptible to pathogens, allergens, and toxic particles. Due to the high morbidity and mortality associated with respiratory diseases (such as asthma), it is crucial to study the mechanisms protecting the cells on the surfa...

Single-Cell Topographical Profiling of the Immune Synapse Reveals a Biomechanical Signature of Cytotoxicity

Single-Cell Topographical Analysis Reveals Biomechanical Characteristics of Cytotoxic T Cells Introduction In recent years, research on how the immune system functions in different mechanochemical environments has shown that immune cells dynamically alter their shape and exert forces on their surroundings to sense physical parameters and activate i...
