New research addresses CAR T-cell therapy safety through a venetoclax-controlled on-off switch and a prospective study identifying neurotoxicity risk markers in pediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have adapted CAR-T immunotherapy to target aggregated amyloid-beta in mice, with transient CAR expression clearing brain plaques. The approach uses CD4+ T cells engineered with receptors based on lecanemab antibody sequences.
Researchers identified shared white matter alterations in the corpus callosum as a common biomarker across schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, supporting the concept of a psychosis spectrum rather than distinct disorders.
