Adoptive Transfer of ILC2s into the Brain Reveals Tumor Homing in Glioblastoma: A Proof-of-Concept for Cellular Therapy

Lei P. Wang, Bidhan Bhandari, Sahar Emami Naeini, Breanna Hill, Hannah Mallalieu Rogers, Jules Gouron, Nayeli Perez-Morales, Aruba Khan, William Meeks, Ahmed A. Elmarakby, Nancy Young, Fernando Ĺ. Vale, Salman Ali, Gerald Wallace, Jack Chung-Kai Yu, , Babak Baban

This study shows that ILC2s can cross the BBB and home to glioblastoma tumors in mice, supporting adoptive transfer as a potential strategy for targeting CNS tumors.

Cortical Acetylcholine Response to Deep Brain Stimulation of the Basal Forebrain

Khadijah Shanazz, Kun Xie, Tucker Oliver, Jamal Bogan, Fernando Ĺ. Vale, Jeremy Sword, Sergei A. Kirov, Alvin V. Terry, Philip J. O’Herron, David T. Blake

This study examines how different DBS parameters affect cortical acetylcholine levels and shows that peak responses are insensitive to frequency but increase with longer stimulation and donepezil treatment.
