CD54 and CD58 are adhesion proteins that mediate efficient immune synapse formation. Hammer et al. now show that the abrogation of these molecules in T and NK cells prevents their immune rejection while maintaining their effector function. These findings should significantly help advance our efforts to generate "off-the-shelf" allogeneic products.

Ligand field theory (LFT) is one of the cornerstones of coordination chemistry since it provides a conceptual framework in which a great many properties of d- and f-element compounds can be discussed. While LFT serves as a powerful qualitative guide, it is not a tool for quantitative predictions on individual compounds since it incorporates semiempirical parameters that must be fitted to experiment. One way to connect the realms of first-principles electronic structure theory that has emerged as particularly powerful over the past decade is the ab initio ligand field theory (AILFT).

Background: Postoperative and ongoing treatment of breast cancer is traumatic to women with breast cancer and may lead to positive and negative psychological diseases, which can affect the prognosis of patients with breast cancer. Positive affect (PA) and negative affect (NA) significantly impact the prognosis of postoperative breast cancer patients. However, the effects of specific emotions on patient prognosis and the relationships between them are still unclear.

Background: Approximately 25% of cancer patients are diagnosed with rare cancers and face unique challenges. Decentralized patient-partnered research efforts, like Count Me In provide an avenue for patients to participate in research that overcomes key barriers to address disparities in rare cancer research to accelerate discovery.
Objectives: Projects in metastatic breast cancer (The Metastatic Breast Cancer Project; MBCproject) and angiosarcoma (The Angiosarcoma Project; ASCproject) highlight disparities that exist for all cancer patients and underscore those that are compounded for rare cancer patients.

Purpose: Maximal oxygen consumption (VOmax), the predominant index of cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), is a predictor of whole-body function and longevity in humans. The central cardiac function and the skeletal muscle's capacity to use oxygen are key determinants of VOmax. Murine Double Minute 2 (MDM2), mainly known as an oncogene, could regulate myocardial hypertrophy, skeletal muscle angiogenesis, and oxidative phosphorylation.
