I am excited to share our latest paper. We profiled CD8+ TILs from HPV- HNSCC patients using scRNA/TCRseq. In addition, we performed an ex vivo stimulation of cells to capture their transcriptional response. 1/n

Type I Interferon Drives a Cellular State Inert to TCR‐Stimulation and Could Impede Effective T‐Cell Differentiation in Cancer
Multimodal single-cell RNA sequencing identified a population of CD8+ T cells elevated in tumor tissue enriched for interferon-stimulated genes (ISG). These ISG cells are clonally related to a popula...

How do T cells reach melanoma brain tumors?

Using in vivo microscopy 🔬🐭, we discovered a new route for T cells to enter the brain via distinct peri-tumoral venous vessels.

We recently published this work in Immunity: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...
