Congrats to the IIRC Team for another great Thomas Symposium!
From bone marrow transplantation to T-cell immunotherapy, the legacy of Dr. E. Donnall Thomas continues to shape cancer care. This week, researchers from around the world gathered in Seattle for the inaugural Dr. E. Donnall Thomas Symposium. 📸

Researchers optimized a method to isolate nuclei from flash‑frozen mouse colon tissue for single‑nuclei RNA sequencing using  Miltennyi’s lysis buffer and Octo-dissociator with chillers. The protocol improved nuclei RNA quality and counting prior to fixing nuclei for the 10x. FLEX- Multiplex protocol, supporting high‑quality, cost-effective molecular profiling when other single‑cell methods aren’t possible. @HutchInnovation bit.ly/4ueaNZi

Autoantibodies cause autoimmune disease, shape infection outcomes, and alter cancer immunotherapy. But what role might they play in neuropsychiatric disease? In our new preprint, Katlyn Nemani and @JillianRJaycox take on this question in schizophrenia. 🧵 biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

T cells do the heavy lifting when it comes to the anti-tumor action of checkpoint immunotherapy. But do antibodies play a role too? That’s the question @yile_dai looked to answer in his thesis work, out today in @Nature! 🧵below nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/4198… In 4,258 patients, donor age affected outcomes differently depending on donor type. @fredhutch researchers & collaborators found while younger family donors showed rising risk once donors were ~38, matched unrelated donors stayed low‑risk until ~50 with better overall survival, allowing for more personalized donor choices.

CAR‑T saves lives but can disrupt humoral immunity. New data show CD19/20 CAR‑T recipients often lack protective antibodies to ~1/3 of vaccine‑preventable pathogens for up to a year, with even larger gaps after BCMA CAR‑T. Re‑vaccination helps—especially in patients with higher B‑cell counts. @fredhutch Influence of B cell-lineage targeted CAR-T cell therapy on humoral immunity and vaccine-induced antibody response | Nature Communications
