Regulation of Immune Checkpoints: From Molecular Mechanisms to Clinical Therapies
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment by unleashing antitumor immunity. This review comprehensively examines the molecular mechanisms underlying key immune checkpoints—including PD‐1/PD‐L1, CTLA‐4, and TIM‐3—and their clinical applications.

Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are key regulators of the pancreatic tumor microenvironment. Through metabolic reprogramming, CAFs support tumor growth by providing nutrients and remodeling extracellular matrix. CAF heterogeneity, including myCAF, iCAF, and apCAF subsets, contributes to immune modulation and therapeutic resistance.

The Aging Microenvironment Shapes Angiogenic Remodeling in IBD‐Associated Colorectal Carcinogenesis
In IBD, chronic inflammation promotes cellular senescence across epithelial, stromal, endothelial, and immune compartments. The resulting SASP drives pathological angiogenesis, vascular dysfunction, hypoxia, and immune suppression, thereby facilitating progression from inflammation to dysplasia and colitis‐associated colorectal cancer.

Single‐Cell Omics Analysis of Human Basophils Reveals Two Transcriptionally Distinct Populations
Integrated single‐cell transcriptomics and large‐scale immunophenotyping reveal the molecular landscape of human basophils. Circulating basophils comprise two transcriptionally distinct populations. A user‐friendly web resource enables interactive exploration of the generated data.
