Sarcoma microenvironment cell states and ecosystems are associated with prognosis and predict response to immunotherapy

This study utilized a machine learning framework to explore the underlying cell states and cellular ecosystems constituting soft tissue sarcomas, and associated them with patient prognosis and response to immunotherapy. Research Background: Soft tissue sarcomas are rare and highly heterogeneous malignancies of connective tissues, with limited syste...

Targeting TGFβ-activated kinase-1 activation in microglia reduces CAR T immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome

In this study, researchers explored the role of the TAK1 activation pathway in CAR T cell therapy-associated immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS). They established a mouse ICANS model and found that following the transfer of CAR19 T cells, cerebellar cells were activated, underwent morphological changes, and expressed more...

Identification of a clinically efficacious CAR T cell subset in diffuse large B cell lymphoma by dynamic multidimensional single-cell profiling

Identification of a clinically efficacious CAR T cell subset in diffuse large B cell lymphoma by dynamic multidimensional single-cell profiling

Utilizing Dynamic Single-Cell Analysis to Discover a Clinically Effective Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Subset for Treating Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Research Background Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has been proven to be an effective treatment for B-cell malignancies. However, it remains challenging to predict individual cl...

Immunotherapy drives mesenchymal tumour cell state shift and TME immune response in glioblastoma patients

Immunotherapy Drives Mesenchymal Transition and Tumor Microenvironment Immune Response in Glioblastoma Introduction Glioblastoma is a highly malignant brain tumor with no curative treatment currently available. Although immunotherapy has shown efficacy in other cancer types, the response in glioblastoma patients is limited. Investigating the effect...
