PERILIPIN-1 SPECIFIC T CELLS FOR SELECTIVE FAT TARGETING
Researchers at UCSF and CZ Biohub SF have described cells expressing a heterologous T-cell receptor, that binds to an adipose-specific protein perilipin 1 peptide complex, thereby enabling selecting targeting of fat cells. T cell tolerance is enforced in the thymus through the expression of a wide array of self proteins called tissue-specific antigens...

BACTERIA-ENGINEERED TO ELICIT ANTIGEN-SPECIFIC T-CELLS
­BACTERIA-ENGINEERED TO ELICIT ANTIGEN-SPECIFIC T-CELLS Researchers at Stanford have developed a new avenue for stimulating T effector and Treg immune cells in an antigen-specific manner. Commensal microbiota have been shown to functionally regulate the innate and adaptive immune systems and must establish distinct niches at barrier sites throughout...

­AUTOANTIBODIES AS BIOMARKERS FOR LIPODYSTROPHY
­AUTOANTIBODIES AS BIOMARKERS FOR LIPODYSTROPHY Researchers at UCSF and the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub have developed methods to identify a subject that is at risk of developing autoimmune-related lipodystrophy. Lipodystrophy is a clinical phenotype defined by a reduction in subcutaneous fat or adipose tissue. Excessive fat loss can lead to an imbalance...
