Identification of TCR repertoire patterns linked with anti-cancer immunotherapy.

The highly diverse T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire is a crucial component of the adaptive immune system that aids in the protection against a wide variety of pathogens. This TCR repertoire, comprising the collection of all TCRs in an individual, is a valuable source of information on both recent and ongoing T cell activation. Cancer cells, like pathogens, have the ability to trigger an adaptive immune response.

GPCRs Are Optimal Regulators of Complex Biological Systems and Orchestrate the Interface between Health and Disease.

GPCRs arguably represent the most effective current therapeutic targets for a plethora of diseases. GPCRs also possess a pivotal role in the regulation of the physiological balance between healthy and pathological conditions; thus, their importance in systems biology cannot be underestimated. The molecular diversity of GPCR signaling systems is likely to be closely associated with disease-associated changes in organismal tissue complexity and compartmentalization, thus enabling a nuanced GPCR-based capacity to interdict multiple disease pathomechanisms at a systemic level.
