Antipsychotic and pharmacogenomic effects on cross-sectional symptom severity and cognitive ability in schizophreniaResearch in context by Siobhan K. Lock, Djenifer B. Kappel, Michael J. Owen, James T.R. Walters, Michael C. O'Donovan, Antonio F. Pardiñas, Sophie E. Legge

“…Interpretation: Our results confirm the importance of taking account of medication history (and particularly antipsychotic type and dose) in assessing potential correlates of cognitive impairment or poor functioning in patients with schizophrenia. We also highlight the potential for pharmacogenomic variation to be a useful tool to help guide drug prescription, although these findings require further validation. …”

PD-L1 CAR effector cells induce self-amplifying cytotoxic effects against target cells by Leszek Pączek, Radoslaw Zagozdzon, Karl-Johan Malmberg, Malgorzata Bajor, Agnieszka Graczyk-Jarzynka, Katsiaryna Marhelava, Anna Burdzinska, Angelika Muchowicz, Agnieszka Goral, Andriy Zhylko, Karolina Soroczynska, Kuba Retecki, Marta Krawczyk, Marta Klopotowska, Zofia Pilch, Sébastien Wälchli, Magdalena Winiarska

“…Finally, we have observed that HER-2–CAR T cells stimulate PD-L1 expression on MCF-7 cells and therefore accelerate the functionality of PD-L1–CAR T cells when used in combination.Conclusions In summary, our studies show that CAR-effector cells trigger the expression of PD-L1 on target cells, which in case of PD-L1–CAR results in the unique self-amplification phenomenon. …”
