🚨Publication alert: Where does immunotherapy happen? What can the fish teach us about human pathology? And a dendritic cell is having a friend for dinner. Cancer immunology goes live, now in @cp-cell.bsky.social.
Here is a concise summary of a pretty big study 🧵. Let’s go (appetizer👇)

CRATERs on Cover! Thanks @cp-cell.bsky.social for choosing our study for the cover of the Nov 26th issue! A beautiful illustration by @maayanvisuals.bsky.social and @mgarbelli.bsky.social depicting CD8+ T cells descend into CRATERs on a melanoma, where they will engage with the tumor and kill it.

CRATERs have been identified as sites of increased tumor antigen presentation where T cells can recognize and kill tumor cells bit.ly/3J8g42v @ayaludin.bsky.social

That's true! We had to develop quite a bit of new technology to be able to see what we report (big thanks to @asaftal.bsky.social !). Thank you, Yi!
Timely and important👇zebrafish cancer models provide unprecedented mechanistic insights on immune-cancer interaction 👏👏👏 solid work takes years to mature!!!

Now online! CRATER tumor niches facilitate CD8+ T cell engagement and correspond with immunotherapy success
CRATER tumor niches facilitate CD8+ T cell engagement and correspond with immunotherapy success
CD8+ T cells preferentially engage tumor cells in pockets termed CRATERs, which are rich with antigen presentation molecules and breach into the tumor mass from the stromal compartment. CRATERs expand and become the major site of tumor killing during immune-stimulatory treatment, and their expansion parallels clinical benefit in patients undergoing immunotherapy.
