Our new #preprint on NK cell engineering is out! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Using #CRISPR activation screens, we found a programmable mechanism to mobilize NK cells to breast cancer tumors by engineering these cells to express orphan and metabolite-sensing receptors. (1/11) The

Excited to see this out; nicely summarised by Mayo Florida AutoImmune Neurology Group. It’s a privilege to work with such great collaborators. I’m excited to now be applying these principles to cancer, with the aim of finding better biomarkers and treatments for one of the toughest challenges: brain cancer.

T cell exhaustion limits antiviral response. Xu et al. Tsinghua University show that targeting BCOR & ZC3H12A potently enhances the stemness & functionality of CD8 T cells in chronic viral infections, reversing T cell exhaustion and improving antiviral immunity. hubs.la/Q03lfG4y0
