Formation of high endothelial venules (HEV) and tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) correlates with improved responses to immune-checkpoint blockade. LTβR signaling can stimulate tumor-specific HEV formation, upregulate the expression of TLS-related chemokines, and enhance antitumor immunity. LTβR agonism cooperates with the cytokine LTα to promote the development of intratumoral TLS. The cover image depicts a mature TLS in a syngeneic murine tumor induced by systemic LTBR agonist antibody treatment in combination with tumoral expression of LTα. Defined B-cell (pink) and T-cell (yellow) zones are surrounded by an abundance of high endothelial venules (green).

Single-Cell Transcriptomic Analysis Identifies Senescent Osteocytes That Trigger Bone Destruction in Breast Cancer Metastasis
Breast cancer cells remodel the bone microenvironment by promoting premature cellular senescence and SASP in osteocytes, which can be targeted with senolytics to alleviate bone loss induced by metastatic breast cancer.
Extracellular Vesicle–Packaged ACSL4 Induces Hepatocyte Senescence to Promote Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression
Peritumoral hepatocyte senescence mediated by ACSL4 secreted from hepatocellular carcinoma cells in extracellular vesicles promotes tumor progression through a senescence secretome and represents a therapeutic target in liver cancer.
Fitness Screens Map State-Specific Glioblastoma Stem Cell Vulnerabilities
CRISPR-Cas9 screens in a panel of patient-derived glioblastoma stem cells reveal heterogeneity in genetic vulnerabilities across subtypes that have important implications for targeted and combination treatment strategies for glioblastoma.

LTβR Agonism Promotes Antitumor Immune Responses via Modulation of the Tumor Microenvironment
LTβR mediates tumor-specific high endothelial venule formation and immunomodulation of the tumor microenvironment that promotes antitumor immune responses, supporting LTβR agonism as an approach to enhance the antitumor efficacy of immunotherapies.
Targeting NTRK1 Enhances Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Efficacy in NTRK1 Wild-Type Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer
Inhibition of NTRK1 signaling confers sensitivity to immunotherapy by enhancing complement C3-mediated T-cell and macrophage functions, leading to improved responses to immune checkpoint inhibitors in patients with lung cancer with NTRK1 mutations.
Cancer Metabolism and Molecular Mechanisms
Tumor-Associated Microglia Secrete Extracellular ATP to Support Glioblastoma Progression
Glioblastoma-mediated metabolic reprogramming in tumor-associated microglia increases ATP secretion that supports cancer cell proliferation and invasion by activating P2X7R, which can be inhibited to attenuate tumor growth.
MYC Drives mRNA Pseudouridylation to Mitigate Proliferation-Induced Cellular Stress during Cancer Development
Oncogene activation of mRNA pseudouridylation is a mechanism that facilitates metabolic reprogramming and adaptive responses to overcome cellular stress during cancer development.
Therapeutic Development and Chemical Biology
mLumiOpto Is a Mitochondrial-Targeted Gene Therapy for Treating Cancer
mLumiOpto is a next generation optogenetic approach that employs selective delivery of genes to cancer cells to trigger mitochondrial depolarization, effectively inducing cell death and reducing tumor burden.
B7-H3–Targeted CAR-Vδ1T Cells Exhibit Potent Broad-Spectrum Activity against Solid Tumors
A clinical-grade expansion protocol enabled generation of B7-H3–targeted CAR-Vδ1T cells with robust anticancer activity and a favorable safety profile, supporting the potential of CAR-Vδ1T cells as an “off-the-shelf” therapy for solid tumors.

NUAK1-Mediated Phosphorylation of NADK Mitigates ROS Accumulation to Promote Osimertinib Resistance in Non–Small Cell Lung Carcinoma
Phosphorylation of NADK by NUAK1 diminishes ROS accumulation and confers resistance to osimertinib, identifying NUAK1-NADK signaling as a potential therapeutic target for improving the response to EGFR inhibition in lung cancer.
CD24-Targeted NIR-II Fluorescence Imaging Enables Early Detection of Colorectal Neoplasia
Overexpression of CD24 in colorectal dysplasia provides the opportunity to use an NIR-II fluorescent probe targeting CD24 to detect colorectal neoplasms, including invisible lesions that are missed by white-light colonoscopy.
