  1. Notable observation:

    chow-fed mice showed an increase in T cells specific for corn-derived zein, but surprisingly, the same was not observed when mice were fed purified zein. Then the typical scientific investigation began.

  2. Scientists just won't give up searching for the needle in the haystack. That's what cancer neoantigen-specific T-cell discovery feels like. New paper by none other than Ton Schumacher, quite literally the Schumacher of this field.

  5. A huge congratulations to an incredibly motivated and enthusiastic Master Class in T Cell Biology! 🧬🧫
    It was inspiring to see such curiosity, energy, and passion especially for Tregs 😉!

  7. 1/ (1-17)
    In this thread I give my take on the new @ImmunityCP paper from the Benoist & Mathis lab on the role of TCR specificity in pTreg induction.

  8. Generally speaking, for Tregs to mediate antigen-specific tolerance in the periphery, they must be educated in the thymus by pairing with T cells that share the same antigen specificity.

  9. Why do studies claiming #Treg induction by novel designer drugs test them only when given before or with antigen, rather than in established disease that more closely reflects human cases?

    nature.com/articles/s41586-026

  10. Recent Treg biotech trajectories show that current Treg-based tech do not work. Why? Unlike conventional T cells, Tregs operate within a tripartite system involving the microbiota and naturally IL-2–producing T cells.

  11. 'We found that up-regulation of a primate-specific short isoform of PRDM1-S induces expression of SGK1 independent from the evolutionarily conserved long PRDM1, which led to destabilization of #FOXP3 & #Treg dysfunction. This aberrant PRDM1-S/SGK1 axis is shared among other autoimmune diseases.'

  12. "The Swiss drugmaker also defenestrated three phase 1 programs. Anti-CD25 Treg depleter RG6292 landed on the discard pile. Roche previously stopped a monotherapy clinical trial but continued to study RG6292 in combination with its checkpoint inhibitor Tecentriq."

  13. 'Bender et al. report that a phase 2 randomized trial of a single dose of expanded Tregs showed no efficacy in preserving C-peptide, an indicator of β cell function, in early-onset T1D. This negative in vivo result comes despite the suppressive capacity of the expanded Tregs in vitro, and will inform future studies of the role of polyclonal Tregs in T1D.'

  14. 'However, whether Treg cells hamper pain at steady state and by which mechanism is still unclear. From a meta-analysis of the transcriptomes of murine Treg and conventional T cells (Tconv), we observe that the proenkephalin gene (Penk), encoding the precursor of analgesic opioid peptides, ranks among the top 25 genes most enriched in Treg cells.'

    Very cool #Preprint from the lab of Jo Jones at #UniversityOfCambridge I've never used #JuliaLang, but this appears to make a lot of the analyses that our lab has hard-coded into a very nifty interactive web-app!!

    Really awesome way to make complex #FlowCytometry analysis accessible when built-in tools to #FlowJo don't quite deliver!

  16. `Furthermore, we show that 5′-FAD capping protects RNA from RIG-I mediated innate #immune recognition but does not stabilize the HCV #RNA. These results establish #capping with cellular metabolites as a novel #viral RNA-capping strategy, which could be used by other viruses and affect anti-viral treatment outcomes and persistence of #infection.`

  17. @weldeiry Nice succinct overview of CD4+ #Tcells in #cancer #immunology. Also a short paragraph on cancer promotion by (a subset of) these cells, a.o. #Treg.

    Thanks for sharing.

  18. "Notably, TCR-M cells that were predifferentiated toward a regulatory phenotype in vitro maintained stable in vivo #FOXP3 (Forkhead box P3) expression and anti-inflammatory activity whereas #th17
    partially converted toward a regulatory phenotype in the injured myocardium."

  19. Review at EJI

    "Dysregulation or overproduction of IL-6 leads to autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis (MS) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), in which Th17 cells are considered to be the primary cause of pathology. Given the critical role of IL-6 in altering the balance between Treg and Th17 cells, controlling IL-6 activities is potentially an effective approach in the treatment of various autoimmune and inflammatory diseases."

  20. "It can be between 10 and 30 years before people develop symptoms so most are unaware they have Chagas, often called a “silent and silenced disease”. Some will never develop symptoms but up to a third suffer heart damage, which can lead to progressive heart failure or sudden death. Others (up to 10%) may experience abnormal enlargement of the colon or oesophagus.

    About 12,000 people die from Chagas every year. It kills more people in Latin America than any other parasitic disease, including malaria."

  24. I like this intro jump from Mitchison to Sakaguchi (ref 21 to 22)

    "Forty years ago, high-zone immune tolerance had been suggested to be mediated by suppressor T cells (21). The existence of suppressor T cells has long remained controversial and was not accepted until regulatory T cells (Tregs) were characterized more than 15 years later (22)."
