Stayin' Alive: Targeting chromatin regulators of clonal hematopoiesis promotes CD8 T cell stemness.
T cell exhaustion remains a significant barrier to immunotherapeutic success for many patients with solid tumors. Growing evidence suggests that enhanced survival and self-renewal properties of a stem-like precursor T cell population (Tpex) is correlated with a survival advantage in immunotherapy. In a recent study published in Science, Kang and colleagues find three epigenetic regulators commonly mutated in clonal hematopoiesis also control Tpex progression to exhaustion. By leveraging the finding that patients with enhanced survival in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) had T cell mutations in the ASXL1 gene, this study demonstrates that loss of ASXL1 in T cells preserves their stem-cell like properties of self-renewal and survival leading to increased anti-tumor responses when combined with immunotherapy in both mouse models and human cancers. These findings have significant implications for new therapeutic options that target epigenetic modifiers promoting exhaustion together with immune checkpoint blockade to improve response rates in patients.
期刊介绍:
Cancer Research, published by the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR), is a journal that focuses on impactful original studies, reviews, and opinion pieces relevant to the broad cancer research community. Manuscripts that present conceptual or technological advances leading to insights into cancer biology are particularly sought after. The journal also places emphasis on convergence science, which involves bridging multiple distinct areas of cancer research.
With primary subsections including Cancer Biology, Cancer Immunology, Cancer Metabolism and Molecular Mechanisms, Translational Cancer Biology, Cancer Landscapes, and Convergence Science, Cancer Research has a comprehensive scope. It is published twice a month and has one volume per year, with a print ISSN of 0008-5472 and an online ISSN of 1538-7445.
Cancer Research is abstracted and/or indexed in various databases and platforms, including BIOSIS Previews (R) Database, MEDLINE, Current Contents/Life Sciences, Current Contents/Clinical Medicine, Science Citation Index, Scopus, and Web of Science.
