by Cactus Communications T cell immunotherapy can be optimized by understanding the metabolism of T cells. This review article summarizes the intricacies of effector and memory T cell metabolic reprogramming and how metabolism can drive T cell exhaustion.

Cold Spring Harbor LaboratoryThe fountain of youth has eluded explorers for ages. It turns out the magic anti-aging elixir might have been inside us all along. Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) Assistant Professor Corina Amor Vegas and colleagues have discovered that T cells can be reprogrammed to fight aging, so to speak. Given the right...
by Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg a Adoptive co-transfer of WT (tdTomato+GFP+) and HIF-1α-deficient (tdTomato+) P14 T cells into C57BL/6 mice before chronic infection with LCMV clone 13 (LCMVCL13). 21 days post infection (d.p.i.), donor P14 WT and HIF-1α-deficient T cells were FACS sorted, barcoded, and multiplexed in a 1:1 ratio and subjected to single-cell RNA sequencing. Uniform manifold...
OCTOBER 31ST, 2023 CONN HASTINGS A team at Columbia University School of Engineering and Applied Science has developed a technique to enhance chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy in solid tumors. The technique involves engineering E. coli bacteria, that naturally tend to accumulate in the immune privileged core of solid tumors. The bacteria have...
