Multifunctional tumor vaccines carrying thalidomide regulate T cell exhaustion and ferroptosis for immunotherapy strategies
VIEW, EarlyView.MTV can greatly achieved antigen presenting cell (APCs), and THA will be released from the polyplex core and enhanced antigen presenting, thereby prompting APC maturation and antigen presenting. The membrane antigens on MTV are degraded into small peptides by proteasomes and presented by MHC complexes.Anmin Huang, Ting Li, Ying Zhou, Sihang Li, Jian Zhang, Yingchao Li, Shijia Wu, Yifan Kong, Zhijie Yu, Jinglin Xia +9 morewiley +1 more sourceCRISPR/Cas9‐edited tumor‐associated immune cells in cancer immunotherapy
VIEW, EarlyView.Abstract
Immuno‐oncology represents an emerging field that has significantly transformed tumor therapeutics, with immune cells serving as the cellular foundations of cancer immunotherapy. Due to its high efficiency and sensitivity, CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing is a highly promising technique for precise and rapid gene modification.Yuhui Ma, Junxin Chen, Yuan Du, Zhihao Cao, Weizhi Ji, Yuyu Niu, Zebin Yang +6 morewiley +1 more sourceEffects of Bone Morphogenetic Protein‐7 on Steroid‐Induced Extracellular Matrix Accumulation in Human Trabecular Meshwork Cells
FASEB BioAdvances, EarlyView.Long‐term steroid use can elevate intraocular pressure (IOP) and lead to steroid‐induced glaucoma by promoting extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation in the trabecular meshwork (TM). This study demonstrates that bone morphogenetic protein‐7 (BMP‐7), delivered via a micellized protein transduction domain (mPTD), effectively inhibits steroid‐induced ECM Eun Woo Kim, Jin‐Ok Choi, Min Kyung Chae, Jin‐Sol Lee, Chang Ha Lee, Jo Eun Um, Nam Hee Kim, Jihyeong Kim, Wungrak Choi, Chan Yun Kim +9 morewiley +1 more sourceLytic Transglycosylase Deficiency Increases Susceptibility to β‐lactam Antibiotics But Reduces Susceptibility to Vancomycin in Escherichia coli
Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT
In Staphylococcus aureus, a gram‐positive pathogen, vancomycin‐resistant strains become susceptible to β‐lactam antibiotics, referred to as the “seesaw effect.” However, in gram‐negative bacteria, the phenomenon is less clear. Here, we analyzed the gene‐knockout effects of eight lytic transglycosylases (slt, mltA, mltB, mltC, mltD, mltE, mltF, Takahiko Kimura, Kazuya Ishikawa, Ryosuke Nakagawa, Kazuyuki Furuta, Chikara Kaito +4 morewiley +1 more sourceA novel framework to build saliva‐based DNA methylation biomarkers: Quantifying systemic chronic inflammation as a case study
Aging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 4, April 2025.In this study, we describe a novel multi‐omics framework to train saliva‐based DNA methylation (DNAm) biomarkers that are reproducible and biologically interpretable. By leveraging a reliability dataset with replicates across tissues, we demonstrate knowledge transfer from blood DNAm to saliva DNAm data using DNAm proxies of blood proteins (EpiScores). Lisa J.

Aging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2025.Age‐related differences in EAE outcomes stem from combined peripheral and CNS factors. Key peripheral adaptive immunity changes include altered naïve/memory T cell ratios, Th1 skewing, increased suppressive Tregs, CD4+ T cell exhaustion, enhanced B cell antigen presentation, and reduced NK cell cytotoxicity.María Dema, Herena Eixarch, Arnau Hervera, Mireia Castillo, Luisa M.

Aging Cell, EarlyView.This study utilized single‐cell RNA sequencing to analyze immune cells in 33 human testis samples (ages 21–69). We found age‐related alterations in monocytes and MRC1hi TRM, with shifts in phagocytosis, cytokine, and antigen presentation, contributing to low‐grade inflammation in aging. These findings provide insights into immune aging in human testis. Qiaoling Jiang, Lina Cui, Xichen Nie, Hui Cai, Wenxiu Zhang, Xiaojian Lu, Yifei Guo, James M. Hotaling, Bradley R.

Aging Cell, EarlyView.Human aging shows puzzling diversity: similar aging rates yet vastly different health outcomes. Our study of ~17,500 people revealed a health‐promoting trait (more common in women) linked to strong immune resilience and high expression of TCF7, a key immune gene. This trait enables individuals to fight infections like COVID‐19 more effectively, respond Muthu Saravanan Manoharan, Grace C. Lee, Nathan Harper, Justin A. Meunier, Marcos I.

Aging Cell, EarlyView.Transcriptomic analyses reveal an age‐related decline in autophagy pathways in RPE/choroid. These pathways remain unchanged in early AMD but become bidirectionally dysregulated in later stages, along with increased RPE loss. Pre‐treatment with trehalose eyedrops enhances RPE autophagy flux and prevents light‐induced outer retinal degeneration in mice ...Katherine Cox, Gongyu Shi, Neve Read, Mohamed T.
