Engineering amino acid metabolism in CAR-T cells

Very interesting approach. We are now regularly seeing metabolic engineering strategies to improve cellular immunotherapies.

Neutrophils are a real metabolic enigma!! They are packed full of glycogen particles and now it appears that beta oxidation is crucial in getting them to the site of infection. Maybe they save the glycogen as fuel for when they arrive? 🤷‍♂️🧐🤓

The acidity of tumours impairs the effectiveness of anti-cancer therapies, according to a study led by Dr Ignacio Moraga, @UoDLifeSciences. The findings could lead to a new generation of immunotherapy treatments.

We recently developed a new single cell assay (QUAS-R) to measure glutamine uptake through Slc1a5.
Check it out on BioRxiv biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/20. Fun collaboration with Linda Sinclair and Sander van Kasteren
