Cancer vaccine attenuates carcinogen induced head and neck cancer with impaired early T cell response

This study shows that a cancer vaccine combined with anti-PD-1 therapy reduces tumor burden and improves survival in a head and neck cancer model with impaired T cell responses.

Excitation Spillover from PSII to PSI Measured in Leaves at 77K

The paper measures excitation spillover from PSII to PSI in leaves at 77K and finds that spillover ratios are comparable across growth light conditions and higher in State 1.

The third symbiotic partner of the volcano lichen Cladonia vulcani Savicz drove adaptation to an extreme environment.

The paper identifies a sulfur-oxidizing bacterium in the volcano lichen Cladonia vulcani, suggesting a tripartite symbiosis that aids adaptation to extreme environments.

DLDG1, the Arabidopsis Homolog of the Cyanobacterial H+-Extrusion Protein, Regulates Non-Photochemical Quenching in Chloroplasts

This study identifies DLDG1 as a protein regulating non-photochemical quenching in Arabidopsis chloroplasts by interacting with Ycf10 to control H+ homeostasis.

Heterotypic inter-GPCR β-arrestin coupling regulates lymphatic endothelial junctional architecture in murine lymph nodes

The paper identifies LPAR1-induced S1PR1/β-arrestin coupling as a mechanism regulating lymphatic endothelial junctional architecture in murine lymph nodes.
