DITAS: Discovery of autoantigens that cause immunotherapy side effects (irAEs).
Time of Update: 2022-09-15
The article was published in a new issue of Science ImmunologyBased on a single-sample gene set enrichment analysis, the authors calculated the similarity of transcripts between lung tumors and healthy lung tissue with DITAS, from which 10 lung tissue-specific genes were highly expressed in lung tumors, and then performed immune peptide analysis to determine which HLA these peptides bind to, predicted the T cell epitopes of CD8+ these peptides, and performed functional verification to identify candidate antigens.

Go to mystify Parkinson's disease
Time of Update: 2022-09-15
Why is it important to know this?Khurana: Putting Parkinson's disease aside for the time being, gene regulation is very important, and we think of small chameleon proteins like α — conucleus proteins — which we call essential disorders — that are ideal sensors to transmit biological information at the far end of the cell, leading to a response to gene regulation.
