ZEB1 transcription factor promotes immune escape in melanoma by Christophe Caux, Stephane Dalle, Arnaud de la Fouchardière, Laurie Tonon, Maud Plaschka, Valentin Benboubker, Maxime Grimont, Justine Berthet, Jonathan Lopez, Myrtille Le-Bouar, Brigitte Balme, Garance Tondeur, Lionel Larue, Alain Puisieux, Yenkel Grinberg-Bleyer, Nathalie Bendriss-Vermare, Bertrand Dubois, Julie Caramel

“…Algorithm-based spatial reconstitution of tumors allowed the quantification of CD8+, CD4+ T cells number and their activation state (PD-1, Ki67). ZEB1 gain-of-function or loss-of-function approaches were then implemented in syngeneic melanoma mouse models, followed by monitoring of tumor growth, quantification of immune cell populations frequency and function by flow cytometry, cytokines secretion by multiplex analyses. …”

Dread and the disvalue of future pain. by Giles W Story, Ivaylo Vlaev, Ben Seymour, Joel S Winston, Ara Darzi, Raymond J Dolan

“…Framing an outcome as relief reduces the overall preference to expedite pain, which can be parameterized by reducing the rate of the dread-discounting function. Our data support an account of disvaluation for primary punishments such as pain, which differs fundamentally from existing models applied to financial punishments, in which dread exerts a powerful but time-dependent influence over choice.…”
