The molecular basis for T cell memory differentiation remains elusive. Wang et al. (2018) identify Runx3 as an initiating transcription factor that specifies regulatory regions required for cytotoxic T cell (CTL) memory differentiation early after TCR signaling and constrains the ability of T-bet to drive terminal effector generation.

IRF2BP2 Deficiency: An important form of common variable immunodeficiency with inflammation.
J Allergy Clin Immunol
March 2025
National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA. Electronic address:
Background: Interferon regulatory factor-2 binding protein-2 (IRF2BP2) is a transcription factor that plays an important role in regulating immune pathways, angiogenesis, apoptosis, and cell differentiation. Defects in this gene have been implicated in immunodeficiency.
Objective: To deepen the understanding of the clinical implications of IRF2BP2 variants, we sought to clinically characterize and functionally test thirty-four individuals with IRF2BP2 variants.
Comprehensive single-cell profiling of T and B cell subsets in mice reveals impacts on memory immune responses in FMDV infection.
Virology

China Institute of Veterinary Drug Control, Beijing, 100081, China. Electronic address:
The impact of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV) on memory immune responses has not been thoroughly investigated due to limited availability of immunological research tools. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we identified specific gene markers for the majority of T and B cell subsets in the spleens of mice. Our findings indicate that FMDV infection significantly reduces the proportions of memory cell populations (e.

Cell Commun Signal

Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Shanghai Fifth People's Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.
Background: Allergic asthma is a chronic airway disease characterized by an allergic response and altered immune tolerance. CD4 tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cells are crucial in the chronic and relapsing pathogenesis of asthma. Furthermore, promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger (PLZF) is an essential transcription factor involved in asthmatic tolerance and has been implicated in the regulation of CD4CD44 memory T cells.

Background: Improving pathological complete response (pCR) rate is currently the main goal of neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (LA-ESCC). However, improved pCR rates do not consistently translate into better prognosis, likely due to regimen-specific pCR heterogeneity. We investigated this heterogeneity and potential biomarkers between two common neoadjuvant regimens.

Exp Mol Med
March 2025
YiPSCELL Inc., Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Hypoimmunogenic universal induced pluripotent stemn (iPS) cells were generated through the targeted disruption of key genes, including human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A, HLA-B and HLA-DR alpha (DRA), using the CRISPR-Cas9 system. This approach aimed to minimize immune recognition and enhance the potential of iPS cells for allogeneic therapy. Heterozygous iPS cells were used for guide RNA design and validation to facilitate the knockout (KO) of the HLA-A, HLA-B and HLA-DRA genes.
