Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn’t lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.) Hosted and produced by award winning science journalist Rose Eveleth, each episode combines audio drama and journalism to go deep on potential tomorrows, and uncovers what those futures might re ...

An unexpected link between KLRG1 and PD-1, two key immune system proteins, was revealed in a study recently published in Oncotarget. This discovery could help explain why some cancer immunotherapy treatments are less effective for certain patients and lead to new therapeutic strategies. How the Immune System Fights Cancer The immune system is a powerful defense mechanism against cancer, with CD8 T cells acting as the primary soldiers. These specialized immune cells identify and destroy tumor cells. However, cancer can cleverly evade this attack by manipulating immune checkpoints—natural “breaks” on the immune system that prevent it from overreacting and damaging healthy tissue. One of the most studied checkpoints is PD-1 (Programmed Death-1), a receptor on T cells that acts as an “off switch” when activated by tumor cells. This mechanism suppresses the immune response, allowing cancer to grow without control. In response, researchers have developed treatments called PD-1 inhibitors, which block this “off switch” and keep T cells active. The Study: Investigating KLRG1 and PD-1 in Tumor-Fighting T Cells In the study titled “Anti-correlation of KLRG1 and PD-1 expression in human tumor CD8 T cells,” Dr. Steven A. Greenberg from Harvard Medical School analyzed publicly available gene expression data from various cancer types, including lung cancer, melanoma, and colorectal cancer. His goal was to identify immune-related proteins that could complement existing therapies, such as PD-1 inhibitors.
