Spatially organized immune hubs of T cells and antigen-presenting cells (APCs) have been linked to immune checkpoint therapy (ICT) efficacy, yet the mechanisms underlying their function remain unclear. Using CODEX multiplex imaging, we longitudinally characterized the dynamic evolution of intratumoral cellular neighborhoods (CN) defined by triad interactions of CD4 and CD8 T cells with two […]
Dysregulation of Hippo Signaling Pathway as a Convergent Mechanism Underlying Choroid Plexus Defects in Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a prevalent and highly heritable psychiatric condition. Developmental mechanisms are implicated but the specific molecular origins remain unclear. The choroid plexus (ChP), which regulates cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and brain homeostasis, has been implicated in BD, but its role is poorly understood. Here, we identify aberrant expansion of ChP in human cortical […]
Immune Checkpoint Therapy Drives Maturation of a Cellular Neighborhood Nucleated by T Cell-APC Triads Enabling Spatially Compartmentalized Tumor Immunity
Spatially organized immune hubs of T cells and antigen-presenting cells (APCs) have been linked to immune checkpoint therapy (ICT) efficacy, yet the mechanisms underlying their function remain unclear. Using CODEX multiplex imaging, we longitudinally characterized the dynamic evolution of intratumoral cellular neighborhoods (CN) defined by triad interactions of CD4 and CD8 T cells with two […]
