TCF1-positive and TCF1-negative TRM CD8 T cell subsets and cDC1s orchestrate melanoma protection and immunotherapy response by Saraí G De León-Rodríguez, Cristina Aguilar-Flores, Julián A Gajón, Ángel Juárez-Flores, Alejandra Mantilla, Raquel Gerson-Cwilich, José Fabián Martínez-Herrera, Diana Alejandra Villegas-Osorno, Claudia T Gutiérrez-Quiroz, Sergio Buenaventura-Cisneros, Mario Alberto Sánchez-Prieto, Edmundo Castelán-Maldonado, Samuel Rivera Rivera, Ezequiel M Fuentes-Pananá, Laura C Bonifaz

“…There is evidence underscoring the significance of tissue-resident memory (TRM) CD8 T cells and classic dendritic cell type 1 (cDC1) in cancer protection. Transcriptomic studies also support the existence of a TCF7+ (encoding TCF1) T cell as the most important for immunotherapy response, although uncertainty exists about whether there is a TCF1+TRM T cell due to evidence indicating TCF1 downregulation for tissue residency activation.Methods We used multiplexed immunofluorescence and spectral flow cytometry to evaluate TRM CD8 T cells and cDC1 in two melanoma patient cohorts: one immunotherapy-naive and the other receiving immunotherapy. …”

Adaptive Immune Responses in Primary Cutaneous Sarcoidosis by Matteo Bordignon, Paola Rottoli, Carlo Agostini, Mauro Alaibac

“…The development and progression of specific cutaneous sarcoidosis involves a complex interaction between cells of the adaptive immune systems, notably T-lymphocytes and dendritic cells. In this paper, we will discuss the role of T-cells and skin dendritic cells in the development of primary cutaneous sarcoidosis and comment on the potential antigenic stimuli that may account for the development of the immunological response. …”

Possible Implication of Local Immune Response in Darier's Disease: An Immunohistochemical Characterization of Lesional Inflammatory Infiltrate by Clelia Miracco, Francesco Pietronudo, Vasileios Mourmouras, Michele Pellegrino, Monica Onorati, Maria Grazia Mastrogiulio, Luca Cantarini, Pietro Luzi

“…We found a significant (𝑃<.05) decrease of CD1a+ Langerhans cells (LCs) in DD, compared to PV, LRP, and NSk, and of CD123+ plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), compared to PV and LRP. We hypothesize that the genetic damage of keratinocytes might result in a loss of some subsets of dendritic cells and, consequently, in an impaired local immune response, which might worsen the infections that inevitably occur in this disease.…”
