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

“…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. …”

uN2CpolyG-mediated p65 nuclear sequestration suppresses the NF-κB-NLRP3 pathway in neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease by Yu Shen, Kaiyan Jiang, Dandan Tan, Min Zhu, Yusen Qiu, Pencheng Huang, Wenquan Zou, Jianwen Deng, Zhaoxia Wang, Ying Xiong, Daojun Hong

“…Results Single-cell sequencing revealed a significant reduction in the expression of NFKBIA, encoding NF-κB inhibitor alpha (IkBa), which facilitates the nuclear translocation of p65, a key NF-κB component. uN2CpolyG directly interacted with and sequestered p65 in nuclear inclusions, leading to reduced phosphorylated p65 (p-p65) levels. …”
