| Open AccessDeleting the mitochondrial respiration negative regulator MCJ enhances the efficacy of CD8+ T cell adoptive therapies in pre-clinical studies
Treatment failure following chimaeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is common yet incompletely understood. In this study, the authors demonstrate that deletion of the mitochondrial negative regulator, MCJ, in CAR T cells promotes target cell killing ex vivo and augments their efficacy in an in vivo B cell leukaemia model.

Alternatively activated macrophages have a pivotal role in resolving inflammation but in the tumour microenvironment they are immunosuppressive. Here author show that adoptively transferred engineered macrophages harbouring a heat-inducible genetic switch can resist the polarizing effect of the tumour microenvironment, and do not only remain pro-inflammatory themselves but also re-polarise the endogenous macrophages upon controlled warming with a purpose-made device.

| Open AccessCD8+ T cell priming that is required for curative intratumorally anchored anti-4-1BB immunotherapy is constrained by Tregs
Antibodies stimulating the T cell co-activator 4-1BB (CD137) do enhance anti-tumour T cell function, but their utility is hampered by on target, off tumor toxicity. Here authors show that anchoring anti-4-1BB to tumours via fusion with the collagen binding protein LAIR diminishes systemic dissemination of the drug, and they demonstrate a curative effect in a triple-combination-therapy that relieves regulatory T cell immunosuppression in a mouse model of cancer.

Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are important contributors to anti-tumour immunity, but they often become dysfunctional in cancers. Here authors show that inhibited iNKT intra-tumour motility and iNKT cell exclusion from tumours by macrophages both contribute to their diminished function in cancer, and by therapeutic interference with the respective motility and iNKT-macrophage interaction pathways, their function can be restored.
