Countering T cell exhaustion and senescence for enhanced adoptive T cell therapies against solid tumors

Yang Zhao

CAR-T cell therapy has shown remarkable success in treating hematopoietic malignancies, but its efficacy in solid tumors is limited by T cell dysfunction, including exhaustion and senescence. In this study, we designed metabolically armored CAR-T cells to ...

Low temperature and mTOR inhibition favor stem cell maintenance in human keratinocyte cultures

Kai Johnsson, Yann Barrandon, Thomas Michael Braschler, Ariane Rochat, Jean-Baptiste Bureau, Fahd Azzabi Zouraq, Johannes Alexander Mosig

Adult autologous human epidermal stem cells can be extensively expanded ex vivo for cell and gene therapy. Identifying the mechanisms involved in stem cell maintenance and defining culture conditions to maintain stemness is critical, because an inadequate ...

Identifying genetic and dietary modulators of metabolic disorders using systems genetics

Xiaoxu Li

Long-term consumption of lipid-rich foods can contribute to common metabolic diseases and systemic low-grade inflammation. However, dietary responses and the development of non-communicable diseases are shaped by genetic factors and gene-by-environment int ...

Deciphering the molecular events leading to the global restoration of the chromatin landscape during mitotic exit

Silja Michelle Placzek

Two fundamental properties of embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are their ability to self-renew and differentiate into all somatic cell types. Maintenance of their identity faces major challenges when transitioning through mitosis, as most DNA-binding proteins a ...

Elucidating and modulating regulatory pathways so as to reprogram the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment for therapeutic benefit

Agnieszka Alicja Chryplewicz

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent and highly malignant form of brain cancer. New therapeutic regimens are urgently needed as GBM patients present with a minimal response to currently-approved therapies. The goal of this project is to identify new the ...

A single-cell-based characterization of mammalian adipose stem and progenitor cell heterogeneity and function

Pernille Yde Rainer

White adipose tissue (WAT) is a cellularly heterogeneous endocrine organ that not only serves as a reservoir for storing and releasing energy but also actively participates in metabolic homeostasis. Given the current rise in obesity and its associated como ...

KRAB zinc finger proteins link heterochromatin maintenance to replicative stress and inflammation in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

Filipe Amândio Brandão Sanches Vong Martins

Genomic instability enhances cancer progression by favoring clonal diversity, yet uncontrolled replicative stress can lead to mitotic catastrophe and inflammatory responses promoting immune rejection. KRAB-containing zinc finger proteins (KZFPs) are epigen ...

Apelin-driven endothelial cell migration sustains intestinal progenitor cells and tumor growth

Michele De Palma, Mauro Delorenzi, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Nadine Fournier, Sina Nassiri

Stem and progenitor cells residing in the intestinal crypts drive the majority of colorectal cancers (CRCs), yet vascular contribution to this niche remains largely unexplored. Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) is a key driver of physiological a ...

Immunosuppressive roles of Activin-A in melanoma and characterization of its precursor cleavage

Katarina Pinjusic

Activin-A, a transforming growth factor ê µ family member, is a pleiotropic cytokine with diverse functions in development, fertility, adult tissue homeostasis, and aging. Accordingly, deregulation of Activin-A signaling has been associated with many patho ...

Colon tumour cell death causes mTOR dependence by paracrine P2X4 stimulation

Andrea Ablasser

Solid cancers exhibit a dynamic balance between cell death and proliferation ensuring continuous tumour maintenance and growth(1,2). Increasing evidence links enhanced cancer cell apoptosis to paracrine activation of cells in the tumour microenvironment in ...

Generation of a Gal4-dependent gene recombination and illuminating mouse

Freddy Radtke

Cell labeling technologies, including the Cre/loxP system, are powerful tools in developmental biology. Although the conventional Cre/loxP system has been extensively used to label the expression of specific genes, it is less frequently used for labeling p ...

Engineering next generation organoids through guided stem cell self-organisation

Mikhail Nikolaev

One of the long-standing goals in the field of tissue engineering is the fabrication of de novo tissues or even organs to provide better tissue models for basic research and drug discovery, and to alleviate a shortage of donor organs in the future. Researc ...
