Webinar: Single-cell profiling of human tumors and inflamed tissues reveals therapeutically targetable tumor-unique immune subsets
News & EventAbstract: The composition of the immune infiltrate in the human tumor microenvironment is a critical determinant of disease progression. Immunotherapies to treat cancer have achieved remarkable successes, but an inherent weakness of current treatment approaches is that the targeted immune subsets are not exclusive to tumors. In an effort to identify tumor-unique immune features that […]

Disturbed mitochondrial dynamics in CD8+ TILs reinforce T cell exhaustion
Scientific PublicationYu YR, Imrichova H, Wang H, et al. Disturbed mitochondrial dynamics in CD8+ TILs reinforce T cell exhaustion. Nat Immunol. 2020 Dec;21(12):1540-1551. doi: 10.1038/s41590-020-0793-3. The anti-tumor activity of Tumor-Infiltrating T Lymphocytes (TILs) can be attenuated by metabolic challenges present in tumors. The tumour microenvironment (TME) is home to many factors that impose restrictions on the anti-tumor […]
