VSV drives CD8 T cell-mediated tumour regression through infection of both cancer and non-cancer cells.

Oncolytic viruses (OV) are designed to selectively infect and kill cancer cells, while simultaneously eliciting antitumour immunity. The mechanism is expected to originate from infected cancer cells. However, recent reports of tumour regression unaccompanied by cancer cell infection suggest a more complex mechanism of action.

High-titer manufacturing of SARS-CoV-2 Spike-pseudotyped VSV in stirred-tank bioreactors.

The severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic highlighted the importance of vaccine innovation in public health. Hundreds of vaccines built on numerous technology platforms have been rapidly developed against SARS-CoV-2 since 2020. Like all vaccine platforms, an important bottleneck to viral-vectored vaccine development is manufacturing.

Utilising the intrinsic fluorescence of pomalidomide for imaging applications.

Optimisation of protein degraders requires balancing multiple factors including potency, cell permeability and solubility. Here we show that the fluorescence of pomalidomide can be used in high-throughput screening assays to rapidly assess cellular penetration of degrader candidates. In addition, this technique can be paired with endocytosis inhibitors to gain insight into potential mechanisms of candidates entering a target cell.

macroH2A2 antagonizes epigenetic programs of stemness in glioblastoma.

Self-renewal is a crucial property of glioblastoma cells that is enabled by the choreographed functions of chromatin regulators and transcription factors. Identifying targetable epigenetic mechanisms of self-renewal could therefore represent an important step toward developing effective treatments for this universally lethal cancer. Here we uncover an epigenetic axis of self-renewal mediated by the histone variant macroH2A2.

Author Correction: Smac mimetics and oncolytic viruses synergize in driving anticancer T-cell responses through complementary mechanisms.
