Lee and colleagues report that ischemic stroke induces the generation of an astrocytic population that, through reduced calcium signaling, favors the recruitment of tumor-associated macrophages, thereby promoting glioma invasion in preclinical models.

Results of this study show in experimental models and data from patient cohorts that the antiseizure medication levetiracetam is associated with longer survival and reduced tumor growth in diffuse midline glioma, but not hemispheric high-grade glioma, by selectively dampening GABAergic synaptic signaling, independently of its canonical SV2A-mediated primary antiseizure mechanism.

In the phase 2 RIO trial, there was delayed viral rebound and resistance to broadly neutralizing antibodies 3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS in adult males living with HIV undergoing analytical treatment interruption, and initial reservoir sensitivity to autologous antibodies was associated with a longer time to rebound.

A specific population of macrophages that express high levels of the enzyme PLA2G2D in tumour-draining lymph nodes is associated with poor prognosis in patients, and inhibiting PLA2G2D improves anti-tumour immunity in mouse models.

TRI-611 induces the degradation of ALK fusion proteins via a previously undescribed CRBN recruitment motif, and its preclinical anti-tumour activity highlights TRI-611 as a potential new way of treating ALK-positive non-small-cell lung cancer.
