Summary: A novel T cell-based immunotherapy approach for neuroblastoma, utilizing TEG002, showed promising results in recognizing and killing target cells independent of MHC-I expression. The efficacy of TEG002 treatment was superior to untransduced alpha beta-T cells or endogenous gamma delta-T cells in killing neuroblastoma organoids, indicating its potential as a new treatment option for a subset of patients.

Summary: Cancer immunotherapy is an important approach in the treatment of cancer, and gamma delta T cells have shown great potential in this field. Gamma delta T cells can recognize a wide range of antigens, exert anti-tumor effects, and can be manipulated for therapeutic interventions. However, research on gamma delta T cells is still in its infancy and faces many challenges and limitations.

Summary: Despite advancements in therapy and increased survival rates, B cell malignancies often lead to relapse. Immune cell-based therapies, particularly γδ T cells, show promising results for cancer immunotherapy. Manipulating γδ T cells through immunotherapeutic approaches provides potential treatment strategies for B cell malignancies.

Summary: Previous studies have shown inconsistent results regarding the role of gamma delta T cells in the development of type 1 diabetes. This study focused on NOD mice and found that NOD V γ4+ γδ T cells inhibit diabetes development, while NOD V γ1+ cells promote it. Additionally, changes in the abundance of other T cell types were observed in NOD mice deficient in specific gamma delta T cell subsets.

Summary: This review discusses the heterogeneity of γδ T cells and their importance in cancer immunotherapy. γδ T cells possess unique tumor recognition and anti-tumor functions, and play a role in the tumor microenvironment. Understanding and effectively harnessing these diverse γδ T cell subpopulations is crucial for tumor-specific immunotherapy.

Summary: The activation of V gamma 9V delta 2 T cells can be enhanced by modifying tumor cells, leading to increased tumor suppression. The co-expression of cytokines may further boost the anti-tumor effect.

Summary: In this study, the effects of BCG vaccination on γδ T cell responses were investigated. TCR repertoire sequencing revealed minimal changes in the diversity and distribution of TCR clones after vaccination, but identified specific clonotypes that significantly expanded or contracted. These findings provide new insights into the role of γδ T cells in Mycobacterium tuberculosis immunity.

Summary: Gamma delta T cells play dual roles in cancer immunity, acting both as anti-tumour agents and promoting tumour growth. While they exhibit rapid cytotoxicity and potential for immunotherapy, their transformation can lead to aggressive lymphomas with poor prognosis and limited treatment options.

Summary: In this study, activated V gamma 9V delta 2 T cells were found to induce strong CD8(+) T cell responses in osteosarcoma cells and effectively suppress osteosarcoma growth in xenograft animal models. Mechanistically, activated gamma delta T cells exhibited increased HSP90 production, which upregulated MyD88 and activated JNK, leading to enhanced CD8(+) T cell cross-priming through increased CCL5 secretion. These findings suggest that V gamma 9V delta 2 T cells may serve as a promising alternative antigen-presenting cell (APC) for the development of gamma delta T cell-based tumor immunotherapy.

Summary: The purpose of this review is to discuss the role of gamma delta T cells in humoral immune responses. Accumulating evidence indicates that gamma delta T cells, independent of alpha beta T cells, participate in multiple steps of humoral immunity, including B cell maturation, activation and differentiation, antibody production and class switching. Gamma delta T cells affect B cell function by directly interacting with B cells, secreting cytokines, or modulating alpha beta T cells.

Summary: Immune reconstitution after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation is crucial for transplant outcomes. Younger children experience faster immune cell recovery, leading to lower rates of graft vs. host disease and complications. Strategies to influence immune reconstitution are still evolving. Recovery of antigen-specific immune cells plays a significant role in protecting against viral diseases, while the association between immune reconstitution and graft vs. leukemia effect is less understood. Future improvements in immune reconstitution may impact transplant procedures.

Summary: This case report highlights the development of a life-threatening EBV associated B-cell lymphoma in an adolescent patient with lymphoblastic T-cell lymphoma undergoing therapy with 6-MP. The patient had a TPMT deficiency, resulting in insufficient degradation of 6-MP and subsequent lymphopenia contributing to the development of EBV LPD. Discontinuation of 6-MP and initiation of rituximab monotherapy led to successful treatment.

Summary: Malignant rhabdoid tumors (MRT) predominantly affect infants and young children. A retrospective study was conducted to assess the prognostic factors, genetics, toxicity of treatment and long-term outcomes of MRT. The study found that female sex, localized stage, absence of a GLM, and maintenance therapy were significant predictors of a favorable prognosis in infants with MRT.
