HPK1 kinase inhibitor: a sufficient approach to target HPK1 to modulate T cell activation in cancer immunotherapy compared with degraders by Qin Wang, Xinyi Zhu, Jing Li, Sanjia Xu, Ali Wang, Xinwen Zhang, Xingxing Wang, Xiaopeng Cai, Haimei Xing, Ye Liu, Xuesong Liu, Zhiwei Wang, Lai Wang, Lai Wang, Xi Yuan

“…However, whether kinase inhibition is sufficient to eliminate the immunosuppressive function of HPK1, particularly in T cells, remains elusive.MethodsIn this study, genetic tools were used to edit the human T lymphocyte cell line Jurkat. The activation of HPK1-null cells, HPK1-wildtype cells and HPK1-kinase-inactive cells was compared through ectopic expression of HPK1 in HPK1 knockout cells or direct HPK1 mutation. …”

Assessing the effect of beta-propiolactone inactivation on the antigenicity and immunogenicity of cluster 2.1 duck Tembusu virus by Kanana Rungprasert, Wikanda Tunterek, Phornphisut Areeraksakul, Duangduean Prakairungnamthip, Chalida Sri-in, Navapon Techakriengkrai, Wijit Banlunara, Christine A. Jansen, Teerawut Nedumpun, Aunyaratana Thontiravong

“…This was evidenced by the absence of clinical signs and the robust induction of DTMUV-specific neutralizing antibodies and T helper lymphocyte responses in immunized ducks. Overall, these findings suggest that a 1:4000 dilution of BPL with 24 h of incubation is the optimal condition for complete inactivation of cluster 2.1 DTMUV without significant loss of antigenicity and immunogenicity. …”
