Caspase-11–mediated hyperinflammation impairs CD8+ T cell immunity and viral clearance in severe SARS-CoV-2 infection

Severe SARS-CoV-2 infection is characterized by lung hyperinflammation, impaired IFN responses, and defective T cell activation, yet the molecular drivers of these immune dysregulations remain incompletely understood. Caspase-11 (CASP11), a key effector of the noncanonical inflammasome, has been shown to mediate an inn...

Decoding Histone-DNA Methylation Crosstalk in Exhausted T Cells to Enhance Immunotherapy 2253691

A central histone—DNA methylation circuit, regulated by KDM5A/B and DNMT3A, that drives epigenetic scarring and terminal exhaustion in CD8 T cells is uncovered and Therapeutic targeting of this circuit offers a novel approach to epigenetically reprogram TEX cells and enhance the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy.

A novel microbial-derived metabolite counteracts exhaustion programming in CD8 T cells 2260531

These findings identify a novel microbial SCFA as a potential metabolic-epigenetic regulator, capable of reactivating effector programs in TEX cells while blocking terminal exhaustion, and provide insights into developing new therapeutic approaches to reprogram TEX cells and enhance the efficacy of T cell immunotherapy...
