Exciting findings from our IMP faculty! Great to see this work published in @Nature. 👇
Our new study published today @Nature uncovers that Transgelin 2 preserves T cell lipid metabolism and anti-tumor activity. Transgelin 2 is silenced in dysfunctional TILs, and restoring its expression enhances CAR-T cell therapy in #OvarianCancer 👇 https://t.co/JzFY5OQ2Hx
