Inhibition of GFAT1 in lung cancer cells destabilizes PD-L1 protein and improves immune response

This study shows that inhibiting GFAT1 reduces PD-L1 stability in lung cancer cells, enhancing immune response by boosting T cell activation and NK cell cytotoxicity.

Lung Bronchial Epithelial Cells are HIV Targets for Proviral Genomic Integration

This study shows HIV infects and integrates into lung bronchial epithelial cells, establishing latency and contributing to obstructive lung diseases in HIV-positive individuals.
