Thrombospondins 1 and 4 undergo coordinated transport to multicore cytotoxic granules to regulate SMAP biogenesis and function in CTL-mediatedcytotoxicity

Chiara Cassioli, Nagaja Capitani, Claire C. Staton…·Cosima T. Baldari

This study shows TSP-4 is required for TSP-1 association with lytic granules and SMAP-mediated cytotoxicity in CTLs, and its expression is suppressed in CLL cell supernatants.

Leukemic cell-secreted interleukin-9 suppresses cytotoxic T cell-mediated killing in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Gioia Boncompagni, Vanessa Tatangelo, Ludovica Lopresti…·Cosima T. Baldari

This study shows that IL-9 secreted by leukemic cells suppresses CTL-mediated killing in CLL by increasing PD-1 expression and impairing immune synapse formation.
