Intratumoral dendritic cell–CD4+ T helper cell niches enable CD8+ T cell differentiation following PD-1 blockade in hepatocellular carcinoma
Despite no apparent defects in T cell priming and recruitment to tumors, a large subset of T
cell rich tumors fail to respond to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). We leveraged a …

[PDF][PDF] Lineage tracing reveals clonal progenitors and long-term persistence of tumor-specific T cells during immune checkpoint blockade
Paired single-cell RNA and T cell receptor sequencing (scRNA/TCR-seq) has allowed for
enhanced resolution of clonal T cell dynamics in cancer. Here, we report a scRNA/TCR-seq …

Localization, tissue biology and T cell state—Implications for cancer immunotherapy
JM Schenkel, KE Pauken - Nature Reviews Immunology, 2023 - nature.com
Tissue localization is a critical determinant of T cell immunity. CD8+ T cells are contact-
dependent killers, which requires them to physically be within the tissue of interest to kill …

Defining and using immune archetypes to classify and treat cancer
Tumours are surrounded by a host immune system that can suppress or promote tumour
growth. The tumour microenvironment (TME) has often been framed as a singular entity …

Human circulating and tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells
Our current knowledge of human memory CD8+ T cells is derived largely from studies of the
intravascular space. However, emerging data are starting to challenge some of the dogmas …
