🎙️Us ho explica la Marta Catafal
5/17
To understand the immune landscape at single-cell resolution, @hoheyn.bsky.social and @paulanietog.bsky.social from @cnag-eu.bsky.social led an extensive scRNA-seq + TCR-seq analysis of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and myeloid cells in models of metastatic CRC under treatment.
5️⃣ The Single Cell Genomics Group at CNAG (@hoheyn.bsky.social, @paulanietog.bsky.social, @jcnietos.bsky.social and Ginevra Caratù), played a key role in the study by sequencing individual cells and analysing the tumour microenvironment, helping reveal how colorectal cancer evades immunotherapy
07.11.2025 10:53 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 04️⃣ New avenues for treatments
✨Understanding how tumours evade the immune system opens paths for new therapies
✨One approach targets osteopontin, a protein that slows T cell multiplication, aiming to make immunotherapy effective for more patients
#ColorectalCancer #Research
3️⃣ The discovery
Via the hormone TGF-β, colorectal tumours build a dual barrier against the immune system:
👉 Blocks T cells from entering the tumour from the blood
👉 Reprogrammes macrophages to produce osteopontin, slowing the multiplication of the few T cells that infiltrate
2️⃣ What we study
🔬The research combined mouse metastasis models with patient tumour analyses
🔬At CNAG, the Single Cell Genomics Group sequenced individual cells within the tumour microenvironment and ran bioinformatics analyses to pinpoint the main players affected by TGF-β
1️⃣ Bit of context
🌍 Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death
💉 Most metastatic colorectal cancers don’t respond to immunotherapy
⚠️ High TGF-β protein levels are linked to poor prognosis
But how does this protein enable the tumour to resist treatment?👇
🚀New study published in @natgenet.nature.com!
🔝Researchers from CNAG and @irbbarcelona.org uncover how, via a hormone called TGF-β, metastatic colorectal cancer evades immunotherapy using a dual barrier, a discovery that could lead to more effective treatments

🧬Using the most complete genetic map of Psoroptes ovis, created by CNAG, researchers from @srucnews.bsky.social, Ghent University and the Moredum Research Institute found that resistant mites can activate certain genes more strongly and in extra copies, helping them break down treatments and survive
