Osteoclast-independent osteocyte dendrite defects in mice bearing the osteogenesis imperfecta-causing Sp7 R342C mutation by Jialiang S. Wang, Katelyn Strauss, Caroline Houghton, Numa Islam, Sung-Hee Yoon, Tatsuya Kobayashi, Daniel J. Brooks, Mary L. Bouxsein, Yingshe Zhao, Cristal S. Yee, Tamara N. Alliston, Marc N. Wein

“…Remarkably, these defects in osteocyte function contrast to only mild changes in mature osteoblast function, suggesting that this Sp7 mutation selectively interferes with the function of Sp7 in osteocytes and mature osteoblasts, but not during early stages of osteoblast differentiation. …”

Tumor-specific CD8+ T cells from the bone marrow resist exhaustion and exhibit increased persistence in tumor-bearing hosts as compared with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes by Ivan Borrello, Amy Thomas, Luca Biavati, Robert Leone, Elizabeth M Zawidzka, Claudio Zanettini, Luigi Marchionni

“…Importantly, in a competitive transfer experiment, BM T cells infiltrated the tumor more efficiently than TILs, displayed a higher polyfunctionality with interleukin-2, interferon-γ, tumor necrosis factor-α production and showed greater persistence compared with TILs.Conclusions T cells from the BM appear superior to TILs as a source of cells for cellular therapy. They possess a memory-enriched phenotype and exhibit improved effector function, greater persistence within a tumor-bearing host, and the capacity for increased tumor infiltration. …”
