Thrilled to share our back-to-back two Nature @Nature papers on the unexpected role of type 2 immunity against cancer. We found that interleukin 4 (Fc–IL-4), a type 2 cytokine, reinvigorates exhausted T cells to potentiate anticancer immunotherapy w/ @YugangGUO2 @RongFan8(1/11)

Beyond excited to share our #NewPaper in @CellCellPress! Inflamed environments acidify intracellular pH. BRD4 senses this via transcriptional condensates, tuning #macrophage responses to match demand and consequences of inflammation. #inflammation #pH authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti…

❓ How can we enhance CAR-T cell activity against solid cancers?
➡️ In a recent study, Zhao et al transduced CAR-T to express IL-10, resulting in enhanced T-cell proliferation, effector function, mitochondrial capacity and antitumor activity in a variety of solid tumor murine models.
‼️ This exciting approach holds promise for patients with solid malignancies.
Here’s a link to the full article- go.nature.com/3vh5Bdv

We make it to the cover @NatureBiotech! the IL-10-CAR-T cells eradicate solid tumors! nature.com/articles/s41587-0… The IL-10-CD19-CAR-T cells have shown promising clinical results in several investigator initiated trials too. Stay tuned! #SOHC @myESMO @ASH_hematology

The November issue is live nature.com/nbt/volumes/42/is…
On our cover, Zhao et al. show that expressing IL-10 in CAR T cells improves their mitochondrial function and therapeutic efficacy in multiple solid-tumor models go.nature.com/3vh5Bdv

Our new study published today @Nature uncovers that Transgelin 2 preserves T cell lipid metabolism and anti-tumor activity. Transgelin 2 is silenced in dysfunctional TILs, and restoring its expression enhances CAR-T cell therapy in #OvarianCancer 👇nature.com/articles/s41586-0…
