Background Phosphatidylserine (PS) exposed on apoptotic cells promotes immune clearance of dead without inducing inflammation. Conversely, PS exposure live tumor an immunosuppressive microenvironment that hinders antitumor responses. After confirming elevated levels in various cell lines and cancer tissues, we aimed to investigate its potential as a target antigen for chimeric receptor T (CAR-T) therapy. Methods We used two different approaches PS. First, employed the adaptor proteins,...
Introduction CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are highly effective in defending against viral infections and tumours. They activated through the recognition of peptide–MHC-I complex by T-cell receptor (TCR) co-stimulation. This cognate interaction promotes organisation intimate cell–cell connections that involve cytoskeleton rearrangement to enable effector function clearance target cell. is key for asymmetric transport mobilisation lytic granules contact, promoting directed secretion...
Actin dynamics control early T-cell receptor (TCR) signalling during activation. However, the precise regulation of initial actin rearrangements is not completely understood. Here, we have investigated regulatory role phosphatase Slingshot-1 (SSH1) in this process. Our data show that SSH1 rapidly polarises to nascent cognate synaptic contacts and later relocalises peripheral F-actin networks organised at mature immunological synapse. Knockdown expression by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome...
The organization of the mitochondrial network is relevant for metabolic fate T cells and their ability to respond TCR stimulation. This arrangement depends on cytoskeleton dynamics in response CD28 activation, which allows polarization mitochondria through change shape, movement along microtubules towards immune synapse. work focus role End-binding protein 1 (EB1), a that regulates tubulin polymerization has been previously identified as regulator intracellular transport CD3-enriched...

Abstract Phosphatases of regenerating liver (PRLs) have been proposed to regulate actin dynamics in lymphoid cells. However, the mechanism mediating this role remained unknown. Here we showed interaction PRLs with regulator WD repeat containing protein 1 (WDR1). The WDR1 was dependent on F-actin integrity and proper recruitment cell membranes through CAAX motif. Endogenous were distributed Immunological Synapse (IS) perturbed expression PRL-1 or PRL-2 by CRISPR/Cas9 mediated genome editing...
