A new gene related to male infertility: ZFP541
Time of Update: 2021-09-03
After the function of the mouse ZFP541 gene was eliminated by genome editing, male germ cells began to meiosis, but died because they did not produce sperm, leading to infertility .
These results indicate that ZFP541 and HDAC1 together eliminate histone acetyl groups, inactivate the expression of meiosis-related genes, and complete meiosis .

Nature: BATF combined with IRF4 to combat tumor-infiltrating CAR-T cell failure
Time of Update: 2021-08-29
However, studies have shown that in CD8+ T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CAR), overexpression of BATF promotes the survival and expansion of tumor-infiltrating CAR-T cells, increases the production of effector cytokines, and inhibits the receptor and The expression of the depletion-related transcription factor TOX is reduced, which supports the generation of long-lived memory T cells and can control tumor recurrence .
