Lymphatic-derived oxysterols promote anti-tumor immunity and response to immunotherapy in melanoma by Mengzhu Sun, Laure Garnier, Romane Chevalier, Martin Roumain, Chen Wang, Julien Angelillo, Julien Montorfani, Robert Pick, Dale Brighouse, Nadine Fournier, David Tarussio, Stéphanie Tissot, Jean-Marc Lobaccaro, Tatiana V. Petrova, Camilla Jandus, Daniel E. Speiser, Manfred Kopf, Caroline Pot, Christoph Scheiermann, Krisztian Homicsko, Giulio G. Muccioli, Abhishek D. Garg, Stéphanie Hugues

“…We identify a role for LECs as a source of extracellular 25-HC in tumors inhibiting PPAR-γ in intra-tumoral macrophages and monocytes, preventing their immunosuppressive function and instead promoting their conversion into proinflammatory myeloid cells that support effector T cell functions. …”

The TNF Receptors p55 and p75 Mediate Chemotaxis of PMN Induced by TNFα and a TNFα 36–62 Peptide by Ø. Rekdal, Z. Konopski, J. S. Svendsen, J.-O. Winberg, T. Espevik, B. Østerud

“…The synthetic TNFα 36–62, similar to TNFα, had chemotactic effects on both PMN and monocytes. The chemotactic activity of the TNFα 36–62 peptide on PMN, was inhibited by Htr-7b, Utr-1 and soluble p55 receptor, which shows that the peptide possessed the ability to induce chemotaxis through the TNF receptors. …”

Evaluation of Epstein-Barr Virus Latent Membrane Protein 2 Specific T-Cell Receptors Driven by T-Cell Specific Promoters Using Lentiviral Vector by Dongchang Yang, Qing Shao, Hua Sun, Xiaoxin Mu, Yun Gao, Runqiu Jiang, Jiajie Hou, Kun Yao, Yun Chen, Beicheng Sun

“…We compared TCR-specific promoters of distinct origin in lentiviral vectors, that is, Vβ6.7, delta, luria, and Vβ5.1 to evaluate TCR gene expression in human primary peripheral blood monocytes and T cell line HSB2. Vectors containing Vβ 6.7 promoter were found to be optimal for expression in PBMCs, and they maintained expression of the transduced TCRs for up to 7 weeks. …”
