In cases of phosphoinositide-3-kinase δ (PI3Kδ) inactivation, such as in patients receiving PI3Kδ inhibitor idelalisib as a cancer treatment, breakdown of intestinal immune tolerance occurs frequently in the form of diarrhea and colon inflammation. In a mouse model of systemic PI3Kδ inactivation, both enhancement of antitumor immunity and colitis have been described as a result of Treg impairment. However, in view of the critical role for Tregs in the prevention of systemic autoimmunity, the basis for such tissue-restricted breach of immune tolerance upon loss of PI3Kδ function is not yet understood.

Despite tissue heterogeneity, our optimized preprocessing pipeline enabled robust tissue annotation, single-cell phenotyping, and neighbourhood-level analysis. While conventional analysis based on cell frequencies did not distinguish disease states, spatial analysis revealed disease-associated remodelling of lymphoid architecture. Biopsies from colonic Crohn's disease patients showed, within follicles, increased frequencies of activated CD8⁺ T cells and a reduction in naïve T cells, alongside enrichment of B cell–T cell interaction neighbourhoods. These alterations were most pronounced in smaller B-cell patches, suggesting more functionally dynamic immune-cell interactions in compact lymphoid structures. In contrast, Crohn's disease ileitis samples closely resembled healthy tissue, with minimal structural or immune cell perturbations.

An important activating receptor is Fc gamma receptor IIIa (FcγRIIIA or CD16A), which can trigger antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) when recognizing antibody-opsonized target cells. One strategy to boost ADCC responses may be achieved by inhibiting activation-induced shedding of CD16A from the NK cell surface. However, previous preclinical studies have shown contrasting results regarding the effectiveness and limitations of this approach. Here, microchip-based live cell-imaging was used to assess the consequences of CD16A shedding inhibition on the dynamics of NK cell cytotoxicity. The bispecific innate cell engager acimtamig (AFM13) was superior to IgG1 monoclonal antibodies in ADCC and in increasing the fraction of cytotoxic NK cells and serial killers. Under conditions where CD16A shedding was inhibited, acimtamig still triggered ADCC; however, the ability to promote serial killing was reduced and associated with impaired NK cell detachment from target cells.
