Tumor-fighting T cells lose their way

Like a tourist without a map, tumor-fighting T cells have a hard time finding their destination without directions. According to Clark et al. (page 2221), dismantling these directions helps skin cancer cells hide from killer T cells. To enter the skin, T cells must grab on to the adhesive molecule E-selectin, which is expressed on the endothelial cells lining blood vessels in the skin. The auth...

Receptor Sensitivity: When T cells Lose Their Sense of Self

The T-cell antigen receptor binds to self-MHC molecules with low affinity. Recent reports disagree as to whether this interaction sensitizes or desensitizes the receptor. Here we discuss how these findings might be reconciled.

Axons lose their identity

During development, epithelial cells need a little help fi guring out which way is up. < a d d a r t t y p e = " r e l " d o i = " 1 0. 1 0 8 3 / j c b. 2 0 0 8 0 7 1 2 1 " > Jaffe et al.< / a d d a r t > show how a polarizing protein ensures that the cells face the right direction. A newborn epithelial cell in, say, the intestinal lining will polarize so that its apical surface is oriented tow...

Myeloid suppressors decrease melanoma survival by abating tumor-fighting T cells.

Disseminated malignant melanoma has a poor prognosis. Immunotherapy based on cytokines or checkpoint inhibitors has a protracted beneficial effect in a select group of patients. Understanding the mechanisms that inhibit tumor-specific T cells will help the development of biomarkers to formulate therapy for this disease. Clin Cancer Res; 20(6); 1401-3. ©2014 AACR.

Arf and Miz1 cause cells to lose their grip

A team of rivals at the kinetochore P rotein phosphatase I (PPI) is specifically recruited to kinetochores to counteract the Aurora B kinase, report Liu et al. The opposing enzymes combine to ensure chromosomes segregate correctly in mitosis. In metaphase, the kinetochores of sister chromatids must connect to microtubules emanating from opposite spindle poles. Incorrect attachments are eliminat...
