The characteristics of chronic benzene poisoning in 176 Chinese occupational population cases by Lian Gou, Lian Gou, Xingyu Ma, Lili Huang, Lili Huang, Mei Qiu, Ruiqing Guo, Jun Jia, Peiyu Xu, Nan Lian

“…Before 2016, workers were mainly in joint-stock enterprises and equipment manufacturing industries; however, from 2017 to 2019, benzene poisoning cases were increasingly found in private and light industries. Overall, this study may provide data resources for risk assessment among occupational benzene-exposed workers; therefore, the monitoring of benzene concentrations in the workplace should be strengthened, and targeted preventive measures for workers must be effectively implemented to protect their health.…”

STING agonist-based treatment promotes vascular normalization and tertiary lymphoid structure formation in the therapeutic melanoma microenvironment by Walter J Storkus, Ronald J Fecek, Manoj Chelvanambi, Jennifer L Taylor

“…For T cell repertoireβ-CDR3 analyses, T cell CDR3 was sequenced from gDNA isolated from splenocytes and enzymatically digested tumors.Results We report that activation of STING within the TME leads to slowed melanoma growth in association with increased production of antiangiogenic factors including Tnfsf15 (Vegi) and Cxcl10, and TLS-inducing factors including Ccl19, Ccl21, Lta, Ltb and Light. Therapeutic responses resulting from intratumoral STING activation were characterized by improved VN, enhanced tumor infiltration by CD8+ T cells and CD11c+ DCs and local TLS neogenesis, all of which were dependent on host expression of STING. …”
