Skewed distribution of IL-7 receptor-α-expressing effector memory CD8+ T cells with distinct functional characteristics in oral squamous cell carcinoma.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
CD8(+) T cells play important roles in anti-tumor immunity but distribution profile or functional characteristics of effector memory subsets during tumor progression are unclear.

CD40 ligand stimulation affects the number and memory phenotypes of human peripheral CD8+ T cells

open access: yesBMC Immunology, 2023
Background CD40L is primarily expressed on activated CD4+ T cells and binds to CD40 which is expressed by various cells including dendritic cells, macrophages and B lymphocytes.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Priming of CD8+ T cell responses following immunization with heat-killed Plasmodium sporozoites.

open access: yes, 2006
Protective immune responses against malaria are induced by immunization with radiation-attenuated Plasmodium sporozoites. In contrast, non-viable, heat-killed sporozoites do not induce protection, emphasizing the requirement for live parasites to achieve

PDK1 regulation of mTOR and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 integrate metabolism and migration of CD8 T cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
mTORC1 (mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1) controls transcriptional programs that determine CD8 cytolytic T cell (CTL) fate. In some cell systems, mTORC1 couples phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) and Akt to the control of glucose uptake and ...

Quantitative multiplex immunofluorescence analysis identifies infiltrating PD1+CD8+ and CD8+ T cells as predictive of response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, 2020
Background This study aimed to explore the potentially predictive role and dynamic changes of immune checkpoints on T cell subsets in patients with breast cancer receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapies.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Phenotype and molecular signature of CD8+ T cell subsets in T cell- mediated rejections after kidney transplantation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
We investigated the phenotype and molecular signatures of CD8+ T cell subsets in kidney-transplant recipients (KTRs) with biopsy-proven T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR).

Decidual CD8+T cells exhibit both residency and tolerance signatures modulated by decidual stromal cells

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2020
Background During early pregnancy, tolerance of the semi-allogeneic fetus necessitates comprehensive modifications of the maternal immune system. How decidual CD8+T (CD8+dT) cells balance maternal tolerance of the fetus with defense from invading ...

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...
