The status of intratumoral CD8+ T cells is one of the determinants of immunotherapy efficiency. Cancer-associated fibroblasts interact with CD8+ T cells to impact T-cell distribution and function. The cover image depicts a subset of cancer-associated fibroblasts expressing high levels of CXCLs and MHC class I molecules that trap CD8+ T cells and induce dysfunction of pre-effector CD8+ T cells via galectin-9.

Integration of Pan-Cancer Single-Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Reveals Stromal Cell Features and Therapeutic Targets in Tumor Microenvironment
Comprehensive characterization of tumor-associated nonimmune stromal cells provides a robust resource for dissecting tumor microenvironment complexity and guiding stroma-targeted therapy development across multiple human cancer types.
Cancer Biology
Erythroid Differentiation Enhances RNA Mis-Splicing in SF3B1-Mutant Myelodysplastic Syndromes with Ring Sideroblasts
Ring sideroblast isolation combined with state-of-the-art multiomics identifies survival mechanisms underlying SF3B1-mutant erythropoiesis and establishes an active role for erythroid differentiation and ring sideroblasts themselves in SF3B1-mutant myelodysplastic syndrome pathogenesis.
Small Cell Lung Cancer Plasticity Enables NFIB-Independent Metastasis
Small cell lung cancer cells overcome deficiency of the prometastatic oncogene NFIB to gain metastatic potential through various molecular mechanisms, which may represent targets to block progression of this fatal cancer type.
The Chromatin Remodeler CHD4 Sustains Ewing Sarcoma Cell Survival by Controlling Global Chromatin Architecture
CRISPR/Cas9 screening in Ewing sarcoma identifies a dependency on CHD4, which is crucial for maintenance of chromatin architecture to suppress DNA damage and a promising therapeutic target for DNA damage repair-deficient malignancies.
Cancer Immunology
Spatial and Single-Cell Transcriptomics Reveal a Cancer-Associated Fibroblast Subset in HNSCC That Restricts Infiltration and Antitumor Activity of CD8+ T Cells
Spatial analysis identifies IFN-induced MHC-IhiGal9+ CAFs that form a trap for CD8+ T cells, providing insights into the complex networks in the tumor microenvironment that regulate T-cell infiltration and function.
HSF1 Inhibits Antitumor Immune Activity in Breast Cancer by Suppressing CCL5 to Block CD8+ T-cell Recruitment
The stress-responsive transcription factor HSF1 reduces CD8+ T-cell infiltration in breast tumors to prevent immune-mediated killing, indicating that cellular stress responses affect tumor-immune interactions and that targeting HSF1 could improve immunotherapies.
Cancer Metabolism and Molecular Mechanisms
Metabolomic Rewiring Promotes Endocrine Therapy Resistance in Breast Cancer
Increased fatty acid oxidation induced by endocrine therapy activates Src signaling to promote endocrine resistance in breast cancer, which can be overcome using clinically approved therapies targeting FAO and Src.
Glucose Deprivation Promotes Pseudohypoxia and Dedifferentiation in Lung Adenocarcinoma
Epigenetic adaptation allows cancer cells to overcome the tumor-suppressive effects of glucose restriction by inducing de-differentiation and an aggressive phenotype, which could help design better metabolic treatments.
CircMMP2(6,7) Cooperates with β-Catenin and PRMT5 to Disrupt Bone Homeostasis and Promote Breast Cancer Bone Metastasis
Upregulation of bone-remodeling factors S100A4 and LGALS3 mediated by a circMMP2(6,7)/β-catenin/PRMT5 complex generates a niche that supports breast cancer bone metastasis, identifying PRMT5 as a promising target for treating metastasis.
