Understanding how membrane composition influences the dynamics and function of transmembrane proteins is crucial for the comprehensive elucidation of cellular signaling mechanisms and the development of targeted therapeutics. In this study, we employed all-atom molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the impact of different membrane compositions on the conformational dynamics of the NKG2A/CD94/HLA-E immune receptor complex, a key negative regulator of natural killer cell cytotoxic activity. Our results reveal significant variations in the behavior of the immune complex structure across five different membrane compositions, which include POPC, POPA, DPPC, and DLPC phospholipids, and a mixed POPC/cholesterol system.

Immuno-oncology has revolutionized cancer treatment, with NKG2A emerging as a novel target for immunotherapy. The blockade of NKG2A using the immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) monalizumab has been shown to enhance the responses of both NK cells and CD8+ T cells. However, monalizumab has demonstrated limited efficacy in in vitro cytotoxic assays and clinical trials.

Dysregulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and interferon signaling contributes to tumorigenesis and progression; however, their crosstalk in tumor biology remains poorly understood. Here, we showed that TSPEAR-AS2, an lncRNA mediated by METTL1, activates the interferon signaling pathway in esophageal cancer (ESCA). Clinically, we conducted a pan-cancer investigation and identified TSPEAR-AS2 as a novel ESCA-related lncRNA that predicts a worse patient prognosis.
