Inducing Immune Tolerance through Peripheral Clonal Deletion Targeting PD-1 Expressing Cells Background Introduction The establishment of T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire through thymic negative selection is a key process for achieving self-tolerance and acquired tolerance post-organ transplantation. However, it remains unclear whether the specific...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
