Redefining CHI3L1: Therapeutic Opportunities at the Crossroads of Immune Suppression and Disease Progression

Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitinase‐3‐like‐1 (CHI3L1, also known as YKL‐40) has been recognized as a biomarker of inflammation and tissue remodeling and has now emerged as a pseudoenzymatic immune checkpoint. Recent structural, immunological, and translational studies redefine it as an active regulator of immune suppression rather than a passive disease marker. Despite

Ineffectiveness of immune checkpoint inhibitors in prostate cancer: is it just a question of ‘‐mabs’?

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common type of neoplasm, currently treated with a variety of therapeutic agents. Although advances in treatment over the past decade have improved overall survival, patients with advanced PCa eventually progress from hormone‐sensitive PCa to metastatic castration‐resistant PCa.

Cancer Vaccine Development: Toward Artificial Intelligence‐Assisted Personalized Cell Membrane Nanovaccine

Small, EarlyView.
Cancer nanovaccines have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional cancer vaccines, which have shown limited clinical efficacy. In particular, cell membrane nanoparticle‐based nanovaccines can offer high biocompatibility and immunogenicity while preserving tumor antigens, including antigen repertoires.

Design, synthesis and activity evaluation of tetrahydroisoquinoline‐based programmed cell death ligand 1 inhibitors

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Based on a 3D‐quantitative structure‐activity relationship pharmacophore model, structural optimization of Y6 yielded Y7f. Mechanistic studies revealed that Y7f acted as a programmed death receptor 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD‐L1) interaction inhibitor by inducing PD‐L1 dimerization. Y7f restored T‐cell function.

Angiogenesis‐associated immune genes as prognostic markers and predictors of immunotherapy response in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

VIEW, EarlyView.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma exhibits marked angiogenic and immune heterogeneity. We identified 28 angiogenesis‐associated immune genes and developed a seven‐gene AIGScore model comprising FGF2, ADGRB3, MMP2, TYMP, VASH1, VEGFD, and ITGAV. A high AIGScore was associated with poor survival, an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, and reduced ...

Autosomal Dominant Hyper‐IgE Syndrome Patients Retain IL10‐Producing preTh17‐Cells That Are Activated by Opportunistic Pathogens and Support IgE Production

Allergy, EarlyView.
IL‐10 producing CCR6+Th‐cells are central memory T‐cells that express ROR‐γt and differentiate to Th17‐cells via an autocrine loop of STAT3‐activating cytokines (preTh17). STAT3‐deficient AD‐HIES patients lack Th17‐ and Tfh17‐cells but retain preTh17‐ and Th1/17‐cells.

MAIT Cells Suppress IgE‐Mediated Asthma via IFNγ‐Dependent B Cell Regulation

Allergy, EarlyView.
In this study, we demonstrate that MAIT cell antagonism during sensitization and challenge with HDM worsens the development of airway hyperreactivity without effects on type 2 or 17 associated cytokine production or lung inflammation. Rather, MAIT cells appear to regulate HDM‐induced asthma through direct inhibition of IgE production.

The Airway Transcriptome in Type 2 Cytokine Biomarker‐High and ‐Low Severe Asthma

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study distinguishes severe asthma–related airway transcriptomic changes from the effects of high‐dose ICS. Most dysregulated genes in severe asthma show concordance with corticosteroid responses. Corticosteroid‐resistant T2‐high asthma featured T2‐high and epithelial barrier gene upregulation, while T2‐low asthma featured Th1/IL‐17 signatures. ASM,

Scaffold‐free three‐dimensional culture of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia preserves B–T‐cell cross‐talk and enables drug response profiling

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) presents a complex biological and clinical landscape, strongly influenced by the tumour microenvironment (TME). To better capture this heterogeneity, we have developed patient‐derived lymphoma spheroids from CLL samples (CLL‐PDLS), which recapitulate the cross‐talk between malignant cells and the autologous ...
