#CD226
Happy to share the last preprint from the Ivanov lab with CD226+ macrophage subset conserved across several tissues and especially fat, in which they regulate lipid metabolism. They exhibit a rapid turnover from monocytes, and in particular MDP-derived monocytes !

CD226+ adipose tissue macrophages arise from MDP-derived monocytes and regulate lipid metabolism.
Macrophages are innate immune cells present in all tissues, in which they participate in immune responses and maintenance of tissue homeostasis. They develop either from embryonic precursors or from c...

Preprint from the Rao lab: CD57+ Tem CD8 cells are associated with interstitial lung disease in Systemic Sclerosis. One mechanism seems to be co-stimulatory CD226 interacting with CD155 on damaged epithelial cells.

Exclusive: Formation Bio has licensed its first drug since raising $372M — an anti-CD226 antibody from IMIDomics — and plans two more deals in 2025 as it builds out its pipeline.

Exclusive: Formation Bio raised a $372M Series D last year.

Later today, the New York biopharma will announce its first licensing deal since raising that money — bringing in a CD226 antibody from the Spanish biotech IMIDomics.

CD226 identifies effector CD8+ T cells during tuberculosis and costimulates recognition of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected macrophages
CD226 identifies effector CD8+ T cells during tuberculosis and costimulates recognition of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected macrophages
Shinkawa et al. identify effector and dysfunctional states among lung CD8+ T cells during chronic tuberculosis in C57BL/6 mice. The most differentially expressed gene between the two states is CD226, which costimulates recognition of infected macrophages. Loss of CD226 expression correlates with development of CD8+ T cell exhaustion during tuberculosis.

8/n From 22 paired patient samples (pre/post chemo)📊 we found that macrophage-dominated signaling is a key feature post-chemo, aligning with our spatial findings. Wondering what was the strongest induced interaction? NECTIN2 binding to CD226, & the inhibitory receptors CD96 & TIGIT on CD8+ T cells.

- Immune activation and sex-based differences
Proportionally more memory B cells at the cost of naive B cells.
More naive CD8 T cells and T cells expressing the activity markers PD-1 or CXCR5, less CD226. CD4 T cells were similar on markers assessed.
