A practical difference from the normal approach to evaluate natural killer (NK) cells and NK cell neoplasms by flow cytometry

Cytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Natural killer (NK) cell neoplasms span indolent to highly aggressive entities, and flow cytometric immunophenotyping is central to their detection and classification. However, distinguishing reactive from neoplastic NK cell expansions can be challenging because NK cells lack somatically recombined antigen receptors, and reactive states may ...

Cysteine Peptidases in Antitumor Immunity: Unraveling Antigen‐Presenting Cell Regulation and Therapeutic Potential

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes the central role of cysteine peptidases in modulating antigen‐presenting cell (APC) function and antitumor immune responses, highlighting their critical significance in overcoming tumor immune evasion. Current research has established that cysteine peptidase subtypes, including cathepsins B, S, L, and X, exert ...

Comprehensive analysis of TCR-beta repertoire in patients with neurological immune-mediated disorders [PDF]

, 2018
In this study we characterized the TCR repertoire profiles in patients with chronic progressive inflammatory neurological disorders including HAM/TSP, associated with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) infection, and multiple sclerosis (MS),

Analysis of the TCR Repertoire in HIV-Exposed but Uninfected Infants

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractMaternal human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection has been shown to leave profound and lasting impacts on the HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) infant, including increased mortality and morbidity, immunological changes, and developmental delays compared to their HIV-unexposed (HU) counterparts.

The T‐Cell Response Mechanism in Human Papillomavirus‐Associated Cervical Cancer and New Strategies for Immunotherapy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a double‐stranded DNA virus that infects human skin and mucosal tissues exclusively. The German scientist Harald zur Hausen was awarded the 2008 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the link between HPV infection and cervical cancer.

A Tripartite Model for EBV‐Driven Multiple Sclerosis: B Cell Survival, Altered Self‐Presentation, and HLA‐DR15‐Restricted T Cell Cross‐Reactivity

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This commentary integrates findings from three recent Cell reports to establish a unified mechanistic model of multiple sclerosis (MS) driven by the interplay between Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV) and the HLA‐DR15 genotype. EBV promotes CNS autoimmunity through three distinct but intersecting mechanisms.

The FOXQ1/SSBP2 Regulatory Axis Drives Malignant Progression of Melanoma

Molecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Melanoma is a highly aggressive skin cancer with poor prognosis, often linked to excessive UV exposure. Despite advancements in immunotherapy and targeted treatments, melanoma's invasiveness and metastatic potential remain significant challenges.

Artificial Intelligence for Identifying Tumor‐Reactive CD8+ T Cells: Biological Principles, Computational Advances, and Future Directions

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review details a three‐stage paradigm shift for tumor‐reactive CD8+ T‐cell identification: decoding transcriptomic states, deciphering clonal functional efficacy, and molecular‐level therapeutic TCR design. Addressing translational hurdles and generative AI “scientific blind spots”—such as missing catch bonds—we present a visionary roadmap.
