Here we show that simultaneous activation of innate immune effectors, STING and lymphotoxin-β receptor (LTβR), results in CD8+ T cell-dependent tumor suppression while inducing high endothelial venule development and germinal center-like B cell responses in tumors to generate functional TLS in a T cell-dependent manner. In a neoadjuvant setting, activation of STING and LTβR by their agonists effectively immunized mice against tumor recurrence, leading to long-term survival. STING activation alone was insufficient for inducing B cell-containing TLS or eliciting long-term therapeutic effects. However, when combined with LTβR activation, it improved the fitness of TLS with B cell expansion and maturation to IgG-producing long-lived plasma cells and memory cells, increased CD4+ T cell recruitment and memory CD8+ T cell expansion, and shifted the TH2/TH17 balance, resulting in the potentiation of humoral and cellular immunity against tumors. These findings suggest a therapeutic approach of simultaneously activating STING and lymphotoxin pathways. Sawada et al. show simultaneous activation of the STING and lymphotoxin beta receptor signaling induces B cell-activating germinal center responses within tumor environment and enhances antitumor responses.","PeriodicalId":19032,"journal":{"name":"Nature Immunology","volume":"26 10","pages":"1766-1780"},"PeriodicalIF":27.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.comhttps://www.nature.com/articles/s41590-025-02259-8.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144928013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Selective T-ALL targeting is challenging due to the shared antigen expression between leukemic and normal T cells. Here we identify the pre-T cell receptor (pre-TCR), a surface receptor essential for T cell development, as a biomarker of leukemia-initiating cells (LICs) in human T-ALL. Loss-of-function genetic approaches demonstrate that pre-TCR signaling is necessary for LIC activity and tumor progression in pre-TCR+ T-ALL patient xenografts in mice. Furthermore, we demonstrate the specific therapeutic targeting of the pre-TCR with a monoclonal antibody against the invariant pTα subunit of the human pre-TCR, and validate an anti-pTα antibody–drug conjugate in vivo treatment as a potent immunotherapy for inhibiting LIC activity and tumor progression of T-ALL in mice. These findings reveal the suitability of pre-TCR targeting as a promising therapy for the treatment of individuals with relapsed/refractory T-ALL expressing the pre-TCR. The authors identify pre-TCR as a key biomarker and therapeutic target in T-ALL. Targeting it with an anti-pTα antibody–drug conjugate inhibits leukemia-initiating cells and tumor growth in mice, offering promise for relapsed/refractory T-ALL treatment.","PeriodicalId":19032,"journal":{"name":"Nature Immunology","volume":"26 10","pages":"1712-1725"},"PeriodicalIF":27.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.comhttps://www.nature.com/articles/s41590-025-02265-w.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144923893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we identify RAD18 as a central E3 ubiquitin ligase that selectively targets phosphorylated IRF3 (p-IRF3) for autophagic degradation. RAD18 specifically promotes the dissociation of p-IRF3 from the IFNB promoter and in turn terminates its transcriptional activity. Mechanistically, RAD18 binds the p-IRF3 dimer located on the IFNB promoter and triggers K63 polyubiquitylation of p-IRF3 at Lys 193. The ubiquitylated p-IRF3 dimer consequently dissociates from the IFNB promoter, translocates out of the nucleus and undergoes OPTN-mediated autophagic degradation. Rad18fl/fl Lysm-cre mice resist lethal vesicular stomatitis virus infection in vivo due to IFNβ overproduction. In H1N1-infected human macrophages or monocytes from individuals with active systemic lupus erythematosus, RAD18 protein levels negatively correlate with p-IRF3 and IFNB1 mRNA levels. Thus, RAD18 functions as a break to terminate IRF3-driven IFNB1 transcription and may be a potential therapeutic target for RNA virus infection or autoimmune diseases. IRF3 initiates type I IFN transcription, and this is required for host defense. Here, Chen and colleagues show that RAD18 terminates the transcriptional activity of IRF3 and subsequently promotes the autophagic degradation of IRF3.","PeriodicalId":19032,"journal":{"name":"Nature Immunology","volume":"26 9","pages":"1581-1595"},"PeriodicalIF":27.6,"publicationDate":"2025-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144915635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Limited access to human livers and lack of studies across MASLD/MASH stages thwart identification of stage-specific immunological targets. Here we provide a unique single-cell RNA sequencing atlas of paired peripheral blood and liver fine-needle aspirates from a full-spectrum MASLD/MASH human cohort. Our findings included heightened immunoregulatory programs with MASH progression, such as enriched hepatic regulatory T cells, monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells, TREM2+S100A9+ macrophages and S100hiHLAlo type 2 conventional dendritic cells. Hepatic cytotoxic T cell functions increased with inflammation, but decreased with fibrosis, while acquiring an exhausted signature, whereas natural killer cell-driven toxicity intensified. Our dataset proposes immunological mechanisms for increased fibrogenesis and vulnerability to liver cancer and infections in MASH and provides a basis for a deeper understanding of human immunological dysfunction in chronic liver disease and a roadmap to new targeted therapies. Alatrakchi and colleagues profile immune cells from liver and blood obtained from patients with MASLD/MASH using single-cell sequencing. They note increased immunoregulatory programs that correlated with increased fibrogenesis and disease progression.","PeriodicalId":19032,"journal":{"name":"Nature Immunology","volume":"26 9","pages":"1596-1611"},"PeriodicalIF":27.6,"publicationDate":"2025-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144915636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we identify two neopeptides encoded by the CTNNB1S37F mutation presented on the frequent HLA-A*02:01 and HLA-A*24:02 molecules in cell lines naturally expressing the mutation and HLA alleles. This mutation leads to a gain of function in β-catenin and is estimated to occur in >7,000 new cancer cases annually in the United States. T cell receptors (TCRs) that specifically recognize the mutant peptides were isolated from naive healthy donor T cells. T cells redirected with CTNNB1-S37F TCRs efficiently killed CTNNB1S37F+ cell lines and patient-derived organoids in vitro and eradicated established tumors in a melanoma cell line mouse model and a patient-derived xenograft model of endometrial adenocarcinoma naturally expressing the mutation and the restricting HLA.
