Article Abstract
By their capacity to induce peripheral T cell tolerance, dendritic cells (DCs) present a promising target cell and therapeutic strategy for treatment of several autoimmune diseases including multiple sclerosis (MS). This protocol describes how to determine the tolerogenic capacities of DCs in the context of the murine MS model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). We provide a step-by-step instruction for EAE induction, antigen-loaded bone-marrow-derived-DC (BM-DC) generation, adoptive cell transfer, and analysis of DC-mediated changes in regulatory T cell populations. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Vogel et al. (2022).

Inherited genetic variants contribute to Barrett's esophagus (BE) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), but it is unknown which cell types are involved in this process. We performed single-cell RNA sequencing of BE, EAC, and paired normal tissues and integrated genome-wide association data to determine cell-type-specific genetic risk and cellular processes that contribute to BE and EAC. The analysis reveals that EAC development is driven to a greater extent by local cellular processes than BE development and suggests that one cell type of BE origin (intestinal metaplasia cells) and cellular processes that control the differentiation of columnar cells are of particular relevance for EAC development.

The stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway represents a promising target in cancer immunotherapy. However, the clinical translation of cyclic dinucleotide (CDN)-based STING agonists remains hindered by insufficient formation of functional CDN-STING complexes. This critical bottleneck arises from two interdependent barriers: inefficient cytosolic CDN delivery and tumor-specific STING silencing via DNA methyltransferase-mediated promoter hypermethylation.

Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in coordinating immune responses by linking innate and adaptive immunity through their exceptional antigen-presenting capabilities. Recent studies reveal that metabolic reprogramming-especially pathways involving acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA)-critically influences DC function in both physiological and pathological contexts. This review consolidates current knowledge on how environmental factors, tumor-derived signals, and intrinsic metabolic pathways collectively regulate DC development, subset differentiation, and functional adaptability.

The purpose of this study was to investigate potential therapeutic targets for osteosarcoma (OS) and offer hints regarding genetic factors for OS treatment using a bioinformatics method. This study processed 3 OS datasets from the gene expression omnibus database using R software, screening for differentially expressed genes (DEGs). After enrichment analysis, based on expression quantitative trait loci data and the genome-wide association study data of OS, Mendelian randomization analysis was used to screen the genes closely related to OS disease, which intersect with DEGs to obtain co-expressed genes, validation datasets were employed to verify the results.
