TGFβ-specific T cells induced by a TGFβ-derived immune modulatory vaccine both directly and indirectly modulate the phenotype of tumor-associated macrophages and fibroblasts by Mads Hald Andersen, Inés Lecoq, Evelina Martinenaite, Maria Perez-Penco, Lucia Lara de la Torre

“…We found that TGFβ-specific T cells induced by the TGFβ vaccine can recognize M2 macrophages and fibroblasts. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the phenotype of M2 macrophages and CAFs can be directly modulated by TGFβ-specific T cells induced by the TGFβ vaccine, as well as indirectly modulated as a result of the immune-modulatory effects of the vaccine within the TME. …”

Targeting sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 3 inhibits T-cell exhaustion and regulates recruitment of proinflammatory macrophages to improve antitumor efficacy of CAR-T cells against solid tumor by Weiting Liao, Ge Gao, Xia He, Pei Shu, Qizhi Ma, Benxia Zhang, Diyuan Qin, Yongsheng Wang

“…Targeting S1PR3 was shown to remodel the TME through the recruitment of proinflammatory macrophages by promoting macrophage activation and proinflammatory phenotype polarization, resulting in improved CAR-T cell infiltration and amplified recruitment of CD8+T cells.Conclusions This work demonstrated targeting S1PR3 could increase the antitumor activities of CAR-T cell therapy at least partially by inhibiting T-cell exhaustion and remodeling the TME through the recruitment of proinflammatory macrophages. …”
