Thrilled to share our back-to-back two Nature @Nature papers on the unexpected role of type 2 immunity against cancer. We found that interleukin 4 (Fc–IL-4), a type 2 cytokine, reinvigorates exhausted T cells to potentiate anticancer immunotherapy w/ @YugangGUO2 @RongFan8(1/11)

Beyond excited to share our #NewPaper in @CellCellPress! Inflamed environments acidify intracellular pH. BRD4 senses this via transcriptional condensates, tuning #macrophage responses to match demand and consequences of inflammation. #inflammation #pH authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S00…
Excited to attend and speak at FOCIS 20225 next week! @Focis_FCE @focisimmunology #FOCIS #FOCIS2025 focisnet.org/meetings/focis…

The Yin-Yang of metabolic modulation for improving cancer immunotherapy - check our most recent review article on metabolic immunoengineering! Kudos to my former postdoc Bing Feng, now PI at Hangzhou Inst of Medicine, and PhD students Rongrong @RRLi11606739 and Weilin @Weiliin_L
Feng et al. discuss the metabolic characteristics of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and innovative metabolic immunoengineering approaches to improve cancer treatment outcomes @Tang_Lab_EPFL cell.com/cell-systems/f…

#ScienceSaturday ❓ How can we enhance CAR-T cell activity against solid cancers? ➡️ In a recent study, Zhao et al transduced CAR-T to express IL-10, resulting in enhanced T-cell proliferation, effector function, mitochondrial capacity and antitumor activity in a variety of…
Heading to PEGS Europe. will share our recent discovery of IL-10 CAR-T cells to treat blood and solid cancers!
Attendee list preview for #PEGSEurope now available! pegsummiteurope.com/attendee-list More than 1500 attendees are expected in Barcelona for the "best #biologics technology meeting in Europe." Book by Friday and you can still save €400. #antibodies #proteinengineering #immunotherapy
Our new study published today @Nature uncovers that Transgelin 2 preserves T cell lipid metabolism and anti-tumor activity. Transgelin 2 is silenced in dysfunctional TILs, and restoring its expression enhances CAR-T cell therapy in #OvarianCancer 👇nature.com/articles/s4158…
