Constitutive IL-7 signaling promotes CAR-NK cell survival in the solid tumor microenvironment but impairs tumor control by Robin Parihar, Cliona M Rooney, Matthew Dysthe, Ishwar Navin, Corrine Baumgartner, Dayenne van Leeuwen, Josue Pineda

“…Here, we aimed to overcome these limitations by modifying CAR-NK cells to express a constitutively active interleukin (IL)-7 receptor, termed C7R, capable of providing intrinsic CAR-NK cell activation that does not rely on or produce exogenous signals nor activate bystander cells.Methods We examined persistence, antitumor function, and transcriptional profiles of CAR-NK cells coexpressing C7R in a novel tumor immune microenvironment (TiME) co-culture system and against hematologic and solid tumor xenografts in vivo.Results Peripheral blood NK cells expressing a CAR directed against the solid tumor antigen GD2 and modified with C7R demonstrated enhanced tumor killing and persistence in vitro compared with CAR-NK cells without cytokine support and similar functions to CAR-NK cells supplemented with recombinant IL-15. …”

Is It Possible to Preserve Statehood Without Protection of National Identity? (Some Lessons from Post-Soviet Constitutionalism Based on the Experience of Ukraine) by Barabash Iurii

“…In addition, components of identity such as language, culture, and religion, in the post-Soviet interpretations, received several more important components, which, perhaps not directly, nevertheless had a significant impact on the formation of the national “genocide” at the constitutional level. We mean the cleansing of the elites from the representatives of the former totalitarian regime and those who ensured its functioning, the definition of a clear geopolitical strategy, different from the desire to restore the Soviet Union in one form or another, as well as the definition of citizenship exclusively for persons for whom national state-hood is not “empty sound”. …”
